Answer:
See Below
Explanation:
Expected value is the sum of the products of the probability and payoff of each.
<u>Wager 1:</u>
probability of heads and tails, both is 0.5
Win = 440
Loose = 110
So,
Expected Value = 440(0.5) + (-110)(0.5) = 220 - 55 = $165
<u>Wager 2:</u>
Similar to wager 1
Win = 770
Loose = 220
So,
Expected value = 770(0.5) + (-220)(0.5) = 385 - 110 = $275
2nd wager is better, in this sense.
To solve:
Percentage of preferred stock outstanding = 5.5%
Price per share = $48
Price of preferred stock = (.055 x $100)/$48
Price of preferred stock = .1146
To turn into a percentage:
% = (.1146)(100)
11.46%
Answer:
False ( "Large lot sizes" is not considered essential for JIT )
Explanation:
Just in time is an arrangement and alignment of raw material supply with the production process of the business. It minimizes the holding cost, lead time required for delivery of raw material, the setup times and sizes of orders.
The Large lot sizes is not a characteristics of JIT because it may requires the storage facility to place the large orders until used in production which might increase the holding cost.
So, Large Lot Sizes are not considered essential for a comprehensive JIT implementation.
Answer:
d. $2(1.10)/[0.15-0.10]
Explanation:
The formula to compute the today value of the stock by using the Gordon model is shown below:
= Next year dividend ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate)
where,
Next year dividend is
= $2 + $2 × 10%
= $2 + 0.2
= $2.2
And, the required rate of return is 15%
Plus the growth rate of return is 10%
So, the today value of the stock is
= $2.2 ÷ (15% - 10%
= $44
Answer: socially wasteful
Explanation:
Product differentiation is when a product is being distinguished from similar products in order to make it more appealing and therefore drive consumers choice.
It should be noted that critics of market-oriented economies may argue that product differentiation is socially wasteful.
