Answer: d. positive square root of the variance.

Explanation:

Standard deviation is used to show the risk on a set of stocks and it is calculated by taking the square root of the variance of those same returns.

The process of finding the standard deviation is to therefore find the average return first and then find the variance of these returns. At this point, the variance will be positive as it is a squared value. Once this value is then taken to its square root, you will have your standard deviation.

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

A. 52% and $11 per unit

Explanation:

The contribution margin ratio is a measure of how much of a business revenue is available for covering its variable expenses. It also reveals how much is left to cover its fixed cost. The contribution margin is the unit income generated from each product sold. To calculate contribution margin ratio we divide contribution margin by sales. i.e

Contribution margin ratio = (contribution margin)/sales

Contribution margin = (sales - variable expenses)/sales

OR

contribution margin = (selling price - average variable cost)/ selling price

Since selling price is $21 and average variable cost is $10

contribution margin = (21 - 10)/21

= 11/21

=52.38% or 0.5238

Contribution margin = $21 - $10

= $11

thus,   A. 52% and $11 per unit is the answer.

variable cost per unit also means average variable cost.
