Answer and Explanation:
a. Here it is reasonable to presume that the treasury bond generates high returns when there is a recession.
b. The calculation of the expected rate of return and the standard deviation for each investment is shown below:
For stocks
= (Expected return of the boom × weightage of boom) + (expected return of the normal economy × weightage of normal economy) + (expected return of the recession × weightage of recession)
= (29% × 0.30) + (18% × 0.50) + (-4% × 0.20)
= 8.7% + 9% - 0.80%
= 16.9%
For bonds
= (Expected return of the boom × weightage of boom) + (expected return of the normal economy × weightage of normal economy) + (expected return of the recession × weightage of recession)
= (6% × 0.30) + (9% × 0.50) + (16% × 0.20)
= 1.8% + 4.5% + 3.2%
= 9.5%
Now the standard deviation calculation is to be shown in the excel spreadsheet
For the stock it is 11.48%
And, for the bond it is 3.5%
c. The investment that should be prefer could be computed by determine the coefficient of variation which is shown below:
Formula i.e. used is
= Standard deviation ÷ expected return
For stock, it is
= 16.9% ÷ 11.48%
= 1.47
And, for bonds it is
= 9.5% ÷ 3.5%
= 2.71
Since for the bonds the coefficient of variation is greater so the same is to be considered
Therefore the bond should be prefer
The true correct answer is C my dude
Answer:
General agent
Explanation:
A general agent is a person that the principal authorises to perform transactions in relation to a part business on a certain place.
A general agent can perform all acts in relation to a business that has been assigned by the principal. For example in real estate when an agent performs property management functions for his client he is acting as a general agent.
On the other hand a special agent is one that is employed by a principal to perform a specific task or job and his scope of responsibility is limited to that job function.
Answer:
For seller = $196.44
For buyer = $4583.56
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Taxes for the year = $4,780
Date of closing = January 16
since the day of closing belongs to the buyer therefore the seller owns the tax for 15 days only
Per day tax = [ Taxes for the year ] ÷ 365
= $4,780 ÷ 365
= $13.095 per day
Hence,
Proration will be
for seller = $13.095 per day × 15 days
= $196.44
For buyer = $4,780 - $196.44
= $4583.56
The reason why Peccarelli
returned to Guatemala was to look for the bodies of a tragedy that happened in
his childhood and help identify them. His team’s goals are to talk to the
families of the deceased and to give the families closure.
