Collateral- Something pledged as security for repayment of a loan, to be forfeited in the event of a default.
Answer:
B) There has been economic growth in our society.
Explanation:
The American economy has consistently been the largest economy in the world since 1871, while the rest of the economic podium has changed a lot. Currently the Chinese economy is number 2, but just a few years ago the Japanese economy was on second place. The United Kingdom is currently a large economy, but it was number 1 before the US, and then it continued to fall to the sixth place. Argentina was once of the largest economies and richest economies in the world, and now it is a developing nation.
The only constant position (at least until China surpasses the US) during the last 150 years has been the US at number 1.
That doesn't mean that the US economy grew every year and there were no recessions. The largest global recession originated in the US in 1929, the Great Depression. And just a few years back, in 2008 the Great Recession hit the US. The US has suffered from several minor recessions as well.
Answer:
SO expected return on Mkt Portfolio Rm = 10.75%
Explanation:
market degree of risk aversion A = 3
Var = 0.0225 = SD^2
Rf = 4%
What is expected return on Mkt Portfolio ie Rm??
According to CAPM, Rm-Rf = A*SD^2
where SD is Std Dev (Recall SD^2 = Variance)
A is market degree of risk aversion
So we have Rm-4% = 3*0.0225
ie Rm = 4% + 3*0.0225 = 10.75%
SO expected return on Mkt Portfolio Rm = 10.75%

Explanation:
We mulitply each line by the stated percent of each activity
<u>for example</u>
Setting Up % x Utilities= Utilities cost assigned to setting up
199,000x 75% = 149,250
Assembly % Depreciation= Depreciation cost assigned to assembly
35% x 290,000 = 101,500
This process must be done to assign each portion of cost.
