Answer:

The risk of a portfolio declines as the number of stocks in the portfolio increases.

Explanation:

In simple words, diversification refers to the benefit of lesser risk that a manager gets by adding negatively or less correlates securities in the portfolio.

However, it is a fact that risk can only be minimized and cannot be eliminated completely. The risk that is specific to the business is called systematic risk and due to its unpredictability it cannot be diversified away.

      Thus, from the above we can conclude that the correct option is A.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

A budget deficit

Explanation:

A budget deficit arises when the governments spend more than it has collected.  The government 's main source of revenue is taxes and levies it imposes on businesses and individuals. Its expenses include salaries for public employees, social welfare, and expenditures on public goods and infrastructure development projects.

A budget deficit contrasts a budget surplus, which occurs when a government intends to spend less than it has collected. Budget deficits result in government borrowing from either the domestic or foreign markets.  A balanced budget is when the collected revenues match the planned expenditures.

After a product recall triggered by salmonella contamination and repeated violation citations by the health department, Mc Burge
Julli [10]

Answer:

McBurger Inc.

Introduction of Healthylicious-n-Safe

I think that McBurger should launch this new product.  If McBurger can capture more than 28% of the meatless burger market, it can break-even in 12 months and start earning huge profits in 18 months when there will be nil promotion costs.

Explanation:

Annual projected market sales of meatless burger = 1,250,000 boxes

Content of each box of Healthylicious-n-Safe = 8 burgers

Fixed cost per month = $35,000

Total annual fixed cost = $420,000 ($35,000 * 12)

Estimated variable cost of making one burger = $0.875

Estimated variable cost of a box of 8 burgers = $7 ($0.875 * 8)

Cost of promotional campaign in the first 12 months = $275,000

Total annual fixed cost including promotions = $695,000

Expected selling price per box of Healthylicious-n-Safe = $9

Estimated variable cost per box of Healthylicious-n-Safe    7

Contribution margin per box of Healthylicious-n-Safe =   $2

Sales units required to break-even = Total fixed costs/Contribution margin per box

= $695,000/$2 = 347,500 boxes

This sales units break-even point represents 27.8% of the meatless burger market (347,500/1,250,000 * 100)

What is the difference between the personal contact model of communicating on the Web and the mass media approach?
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Social media relates to all the technology that makes information sharing possible via the Internet. It is largely based on subject matter that users create and share.

Explanation:

Mass media approach: One-to-many

Personal contact approach: one-to-one.

Difference: Sellers are involved in mass media; buyers exchange information passively. Seller and buyer are both active on PC.

It is also the primary communication means used to meet the vast majority of the population. Newspapers, journals, radio, TV and the internet are the most prominent mass media channels.

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

1. A basic finding of labor economics is that workers who have more experience in the labor force are paid more than workers who have less experience (holding constant the amount of formal education). True

2. This might be the case because people with more experience have usually had more on-the-job training. True

3. Some studies have also found that experience at the same job (called job tenure) has an extra positive influence on wages. Job tenure is valuable because people gain <u>job-specific knowledge</u> that is useful to the firm.

Explanation:

A worker with more experience means more on-the-job training, this drastically increases the worker's value of the marginal product of labor.
