Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
1. VaR = Expected return - z × Standard deviation
= 13% - 1.645 × 20%
= -19.90%
Therefore the option a is the correct answer.
2) Now the correlation coefficient is
Variance of the portfolio = (weight of A × Standard deviation 1)^2 + (weight of B × Standard deviation 2)^2 + (2 × weight of A × weight of B × Standard deviation 1 × Standard deviation 2 × correlation 1 and 2)
3.80% = (60% × 24%)^2 + (40% × 18%)^2 + (2 × 60% × 40% × 24% × 18% × correlation 1 and 2)
So the correlation is 0.583
Answer:
$7,816.9943
Explanation:
Using the high-low method;variable cost per unit=[Total cost at highest level-Total cost at lowest level]/(Highest level-Lowest level)
= $16,700 - $15,850 / 951 - 860
= $850 / 91
= $9.340659340659341
= $9.3407
Hence, total fixed cost = $16,700 - ($9.3407*951) = $16,700 - $8,883.0057 = $7,816.9943
A. The items that fall under the DIRECT MATERIAL category include the following:
1. Film cost for the X ray machine.
2. Electricity cost for the X ray department.
3. Maintenance and repair on the X ray machine.
4. X ray department supplies.
The items that fall under the DIRECT LABOUR category include the following:
1. Salaries of the X ray machine technician.
2. Salary of the X ray technicians' supervisor.
The items that fall under the SERVICE OVERHEAD category include the following:
1. Wages for the hospital janitorial personnel.
2. Property taxes on the hospital building.
3. Depreciation on the hospital building.
4. Depreciation on the X ray department equipment [Manufacturing overhead]
B. The costs that are incurred during the production of a good or service are usually divided into three categories, which are direct material, direct labour and overhead costs.
Direct materials refer to those materials used in the production process which can be traced to a particular unit or department. A good example of a direct material is the raw materials used in the production unit for the production of a particular product.
Direct labour refers to the salaries and wages of those employees that are directly involved in the production process or in carrying out a particular operation. An example of a direct labour for the production of chocolates is the salary of those workers in the production unit.
Overhead cost refers to all other costs that are incurred during the process of production.These costs can not be traced to a specific department per say, but it cover the whole business unit. Overhead cost is of two types: administrative and manufacturing overheads. Examples of overhead costs are rent, utilities, insurance, depreciation, etc.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given data:
Amount of currency held = $1347 billion
checkable deposit $1347 billion
saving deposit $8189 billion
small time deposit $400 billion
market fund $709 billion
Saving deposit in the form M2 and M1
M_1 = currency held as individual and traveller check + checkable deposit
= $1347 + $1764
M_2 = M_1 + saving deposit _ time deposit + maket funds
= $3111 + $8189 + $400 + $709
Answer:
D. increase; decrease
Explanation:
When foreign imposes a tariff on import from home then there will be decreaing the import leading to a decreased demand of domestic currency by foreigners.
Therefore, domestic currency will depreciate and foreign currency will appreciate thus this action will lead to real home/Foreign rate to increase and will decrease the nominal home/foreign exchange rate.
