Answer:

Explanation:

Body language is an extremely important form of communication in every single culture, yet every culture has differences. For example...

Korean's tend to greet individuals with a bow. This is a form of showing respect as well as saying hello. Other cultures such as the Swiss tend to greet others with three cheek kisses.

Body language can be for many occasions such as Americans using the middle finger to show their dislike of someone. There's also Italian's closing their fingers together in form of a pinecone to show their distraught over something.

Body language has always been a way of expressing oneself and their emotions.

Consider 2 scenarios: Boom Economy and Normal Economy. The Boom economy has 30% chance of happening, while Normal economy has 70

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

A) Expected Return of Stock ABC = Probability of Boom * Return of ABC in boom+Probability of Normal * Return of ABC in norma

ER = 30% * 25% + 70% * 4% = 10.30%

Expected Return of Stock XYZ = Probability of Boom * Return of XYZ in boom+Probability of Normal*Return of XYZ in norma

ER = 30% * 10% + 70% * 6.5% = 7.55%

Variance of Stock ABC = 30% * (25%-10.30%)^2 + 70% * (4%-10.30%)^2 = 0.9261%

Variance of Stock XYZ = 30% * (10%-7.55%)^2 + 70% * (6.5%-7.55%)^2 = 0.02573%

Standard Deviation of ABC =0.9261%^0.5 = 9.62%

Standard Deviation of XYZ =0.02573%^0.5 = 1.60%

B) Coefficient of Variation of ABC=Standard Deviation of ABC/Expected Return of ABC =9.62%/10.30%=0.93

Coefficient of Variation of XYZ=Standard Deviation of XYZ/Expected Return of XYZ =1.60%/7.55%=0.21

Stock with less Coefficient of variation to be chosen as lower Coefficient of variation show lower risk in relation to the return.

Hence stock XYZ is best for investment.

C) Expected Return of Market =30% *12% + 70% * 5% = 7.1%

Variance of Market =30% * (12% - 7.1%)^2 + 70% * (5%-7.1%)^2 = 0.1029%

Covariance of Stock ABC and Market = 30% * (12% - 7.1%) * (25% - 10.30%) + 70%*(5% - 7.1%) * (4% - 10.30% )= 0.0030870

Beta of ABC = Covariance of Stock ABC and Market / Variance of Market

Beta ABC = (0.0030870 / 0.1029%) = 3.00

Covariance of Stock XYZ and Market =30% * ( 12% - 7.1%) * (10% - 7.55%) + 70% * (5% - 7.1%) * (6.50% - 7.55%) = 0.000515

Beta of Stock XYZ = Covariance of Stock XYZ and Market /

Variance of MarkeT

Beta XYZ = (0.000515 / 0.1029%) = 0.5

The opportunity cost of doing or getting something is best and fully defined as:

Marysya12 [62]

Answer: The correct answer is C. The value of the best alternative that is given up in order to do or get something.

Explanation: Opportunity cost literally means alternative thing forgone - meaning what is given up to get something <em>(sacrifice</em>). It is a concept used by economists to allocate limited resources for production, consumption, distribution and exchange of goods and services. Production of goods or services entails the creation of value. In other words, it gives a more understanding on how limited resources are allocated in order to satisfy the human insatiable desires.

For example, a student may be constrained with limited amount of pocket money, say $100 and the student wants to buy textbooks that cost $10 each or go for different outings going for $20 each. In this scenario, the student has different options: a) buy 10 textbooks and 0 outing b) buy 8 textbooks and a outing c) 6 textbooks and two outings d) 4 textbooks and three outings e) 0 textbooks and five outings. For the student to have any more of the other, he has to give up the other unit. What is given up is called opportunity cost.
