Treasury bill returns are 4%, 3%, 2%, and 5% over four years. The standard deviation of returns

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Option (D) 1.29%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Treasury bill returns over four years :

4%, 3%, 2%, and 5%

Now,

Average return = (4% + 3% + 2%+ 5%) ÷ 4

= 3.5%

Standard deviation = [ ∑(Return - Mean)² ] ÷ [ n -1 ]

= [ (4% - 3.5%)² + (3% - 3.5%)² + (2% - 3.5%)² + (5% - 3.5%)² ] ÷ [ 4 - 1 ]

= 3.87% ÷ 3

= 1.29%

Hence,

Option (D) 1.29%

Charlie likes both apples and bananas. he consumes nothing else. the consumption bundle where charlie consumes xa bushels of app

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

the question is incomplete:

It happens that the set of consumption bundles (xA,xB) such that Charlie is indifferent between (xA,xB) and (20,5) is the set of all bundles such that xB = 100/xA. The set of bundles (xA,xB) such that Charlie is just indifferent between (xA,xB) and the bundle (10,15) is the set of bundles such that xB = 150/xA.

I also found the attached graph.

The requirements are:

Is (30,5) ≈ (10,15) true or false?
Is (10,15) > (20,5) true or false?
Is (20,5) ≥ (10,10) true or false?
Is (24,4) ≥ (11,9.1) true or false?
Is (11,14) > (2,49) true or false?
A set is convex if for any two points in the set, the line segment between them is also in the set. Is the set of bundles that Charlie weakly prefers to (20,5) a convex set?
Is the set of bundles that Charlie considers inferior to (20,5) a convex set?
The slope of Charlie’s indifference curve through a point, (xA,xB), is known as his ______________ ___ of ___________ at that point.
Find Charlie’s marginal rate of substitution at the point (10,10).
Find Charlie’s marginal rate of substitution at the point (5,20).
Find Charlie’s marginal rate of substitution at the point (20,5).
Do the indifference curves you have drawn for Charlie exhibit diminishing marginal rates of substitution?

Answers:

true, they are on the same red line
true, (10,15) is on the red line while (20,5) is on the blue line
true, they are equivalent since both are on the blue line
false, (11,9.1) is on the blue line and (24,4) is on the red line
true, (11,14) is on the red line while (2,29) is on the blue portion
yes, it is a convex set
no, they are not a convex set
The slope of Charlie’s indifference curve through a point, (xA,xB), is known as his RATE of SUBSTITUTION at that point.
marginal rate of substitution at (10,10) = -10/10 = -1
marginal rate of substitution at (5,20) = -20/5 = -4
marginal rate of substitution at (20,5) = -5/20 = -1/4 = -0.25
yes, this curves shows diminishing marginal rates of substitutions, e.g. goes from -4 to -1 to -0.25

Determine which is the better investment: compounded semiannually or compounded quarterly. Round your answers to decimal places.

klemol [59]

Answer:

the numbers are missing, so I looked for a similar question and found:

Determine which is the better investment: 5.22% compounded semiannually or 5.24% compounded quarterly. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.

effective interest rate for semiannual compounding = (1 + 5.22%/2)² - 1 = 5.29%
effective interest rate for quarterly compounding = (1 + 5.24%/4)⁴ - 1 = 5.34%

Compounded quarterly is a better investment than compounded semiannually

Explanation:

The shorter the compounding period, the more interests received (or paid if it is a loan) and the nominal interest rate is the same:

E.g. lets assume that the nominal interest rate is 10% per year:

effective interest rate for annual compounding = 10%
effective interest rate for semiannual compounding = (1 + 10%/2)² - 1 = 10.25%
effective interest rate for quarterly compounding = (1 + 10%/4)⁴ - 1 = 10.38%
effective interest rate for monthly compounding = (1 + 10%/12)¹² - 1 = 10.47%
