The fares received by taxi drivers working for the City Taxi line are normally distributed with a mean of $12.50 and a standard
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

0.2308 or 23.08%

Explanation:

Mean (μ) = $12.50

Standard deviation (σ) = $3.25

Assuming a normal distribution, for any given fare X, the z-score is calculated as:

z = \frac{X-\mu }{\sigma}

For X = $15.00, the z-score is:

z = \frac{15.00-12.50 }{3.25}\\ z=0.7692

A z-score of 0.7692 corresponds to the 77.91-th percentile of a normal distribution. Therefore, the probability that a fare exceeds $15.00 is:

P(X>\$15.00) = 1-0.7692 = 0.2308

The probability that a specific fare will exceed $15.00 is 0.2308.

A company incurs total costs of $8,000 to process Product A. The company can then sell Product A as is for total daily revenue o
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

As the gross profit is the same for both products It is better to choose Product A because Product Z needs further processing a day , so time can also be the constraint.

Explanation:

Process Cost of Product A = $ 8000

Sale of Product A= $ 22,500

Gross Profit For A= $ 14,500

Process Cost of Product Z= $ 8000 + $4200= $ 12,200

Sale of Product Z= $ 26,700

Gross Profit For Z= $ 14,500

The gross profit for both products is same but product Z requires additional day for further processing so it is better to choose Product A.

An issuer has filed a registration statement in the state proposing to offer 500,000 shares in a combined primary and secondary
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

b. 300,000 shares being sold is an issuer transaction and the 200,000 shares being sold is a non-issuer transaction.

Explanation:

A non-issuer transaction is a transaction that does not directly benefit an issuer or it was not directly executed to benefit an issuer.

According to the Uniform State Law, an entity involved in the sales of certificates of interest, leases, mining titles among others is officially exempted from being labelled as an issuer. Hence, the entity (officers of the firm) in the question are non-issuer brokers.

Specifically, when the sales of stock are carried out by someone or an individual who is not a registered stockbroker, that individual officially becomes what is called 'a non-issuer broker-dealer'. The implication is that such a transaction is to be exempted from the registration requirements of the Security Exchange Commission.

In this question, since the issuer newly issued 300,000 shares while the remaining 200,000 in the proposed combination was offered by Officers of the firm - non-issuer broker-dealers. The Law states that it must be separated to show that 300,000 shares are sold in an issuer transaction (Primary) directly involving an official issuer while 200,000 shares are sold in a non-issuer transaction (Secondary).

LekaFEV [45]

So Tellis may recover money damages from McGraw.

Overall the option C is the correct option with which the case scenario relates.
