Yes it can be applied.
If an investor is pessimistic that a certain risk that they fear will occur, they avoid investing in the fields prone to the risk.
For example, if an investor is offered an opportunity in the oil and flammable fuels and the persons dreads fire, that person declines the offer no matter how viable it is.

A farmer sells a bushel of corn to the supermarket for $12. The supermarket then sells the corn to customers for $25. What is th

allsm [11]

Answer:

$ 25

Explanation:

As per the description, the exact amount that is being contributed from the corn bushel to the Gross Domestic Product would be $ 25. The price at which the farmer sold it to the supermarket would not be included in the GDP because it would be considered as an intermediary good because the good purchased for the resale purpose is not included in GDP as it leads to double-counting. Thus, <u>only the price of the final good i.e. $ 25 would be included in GDP as it will now be used for final consumption by the customers</u>.

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

A. 0.9x + 0.3y ≤ 10,000

Explanation:

Given

$x \to$ oil based plant

$y \to$ water based plant

The data can be represented in tabular form as:

$\begin{array}{ccc}{} & {A} & {B} & {x} & {90\%} & {10\%} & {y} & {30\%} & {70\%} & {} & {10000} & {5000}\ \end{array}$

Considering only A, we have the following constraints:

$A \to 90\% * x + 30\% * y$

$A \to 0.9x + 0.3y$

Since the company currently has 10000 of A.

The above constraint implies that, the mixture cannot exceed 10000.

So, we have:

$A \to 0.9x + 0.3y \le 10000$

<em>Hence, (A) is correct</em>
