Consider a risky portfolio. The end-of-year cash flow derived from the portfolio will be either $70,000 or $200,000 with equal p

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

$118,421

Explanation:

first we must calculate the expected value of the risky portfolio = ($70,000 x 0.5) + ($200,000 x 0.5) = $135,000

since your risk premium is 8% and the risk free rate is 6%m then you should discount the expected value by 8% + 6% = 14% to determine its current market price

= $135,000 / (1 + 14%) = $118,421

Answer:

Wide

Explanation:

Basically there are two spans of control namely; wide and narrow. A wide span of control is one in which a manager or supervisor interacts with many team members. In other words, the levels of hierarchy involved where there is a wide span of control is few. As such, this structure entails that a large number of the team members report directly to the manager.

The narrow span of control is one in which the manager supervises or interacts with a few team members. In other words, there is some level of hierarchy involved such that the managers direct subordinates are few and have subordinates who report to them.

To state it in another way, the wider the span of control, the fewer level of report or levels of hierarchy and the narrower the span of control, the higher the levels of hierarchy required.

In light of the explanation above, it can be deduced that Jody has a wide span of control over her team.

Unfortunately, Angie doesn't have enough money in her account right now. She needs to make additional contributions at the end o

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer: $770.22

Explanation:

If she makes equal contributions then those would be annuities. The $9,000 she wants to have will be the future value of the amount currently in her account and the annuity.

9,000 = 5,000 ( 1 + r) ^ n + ( annuity * future value interest factor of an annuity, 9%, 3 years)

9,000 = 5,000 ( 1 + 9%) ^ 3 + ( Annuity * 3.2781)

9,000 = 6,475.145‬ + 3.2781 * Annuity

Annuity = (9,000 - 6,475.145‬) / 3.2781

Annuity = $770.22

Question 1

eimsori [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

I think it's A.

You should always question the source. You might be lucky and discover what they've not said about their product. Or you may discover it is simply not true.

A few years back (many in fact), there was a product on the market call Laetrile. It was produced from peach pits. It has an overwhelming popularity that Sloan Kettering (the Cancer Clinic in New York -- the oldest and largest one in the world), spent some of their needed grant money to test Laetrile. The results -- nothing. Imagine what happened to those who marketed this product. Word got around. People with Cancer are pretty desperate. They and their loved ones will try anything.

But the facts on the internet help to dispel this kind of thing.
