Answer:

Asset U

Explanation:

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset Q = Expected return / standard deviation

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset Q = 6.5% / 5.5%

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset Q = 1.1818

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset U = Expected return / standard deviation

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset U = 8.8% / 5.5%

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset U = 1.6

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset B = Expected return / standard deviation

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset B = 8.8% / 6.5%

Reward-to-volatility ratio for Asset B = 1.3538

The  investor should prefer Asset U because its has the highest reward to volatility ratio among the three options.

Your Economics instructor assigns your class to investigate factors associated with the gross domestic product (GDP) of nations.
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The Correlation analysis “R” is measured to compute the strength of relationship among variables. Moreover, the value of correlation is calculated among -1 to +1. Which implies that if the computed value is near to -1 then there will be strong but negative relation and if near to +1 then it is strong but relation among the variable. However zero is consider as neutral point.  

A. The computed value of correlation is - 0.772. The value identifies that that there is a strong but negative association among the variables (GDP and infant mortality rate).

B. The correlation analysis cannot computed among the variables continent and GDP because "continent" is a categorical variable not quantitative.  

C. The computed value of correlation is higher than 1. Thus, the statement implies that there is a very strong relationship among life expectancy and GDP which is incorrect. As the association cannot be higher than 1.  

D. There is a strong relationship among literacy rate and GDP as the relationship is nearer to 1. Furthermore, the association among literacy rate and GDP doesn’t suggest the causation.

E. The computed correlation among the variables is 0.90. Which indicated that the variables goes up. That is, when the GDP goes down the import is also decrease and when GDP increases the import increases Thus, the there is a positive correlation.

4. Suppose the supply of apples sharply increases because of perfect weather conditions throughout the growing season. Assuming
koban [17]

Answer:

Apples supply increase imply new equilibrium at lower price, higher quantity. Demand downwards expansion on the curve itself is due to lower price.

Explanation:

Market is at equilibrium where Market Demand = Market Supply, & downward sloping  demand curve intersects upward sloping demand curve.

If supply of apples increase & supply curve shifts rightwards, there is Excess Supply at previous equilibrium. Excess Supply creates competition among sellers, reduces new market price.

At lower price, demand expands & supply contratcs. New Equilibrium quantity is higher where new (rightwards shifted) supply curve intersects demand curve.

Quantity demanded increases (expands - downwards movement on demand curve) due to lower price, despite of no change in demand.
