Answer:

A. 104%

B. 66.7%

Explanation:

A. Calculation for what would be the percentage return earned

Percentage return =($50-$30-30*60%*7%)/30*60%

Percentage return(20-$18*.07)/18=

Percentage return=1.04*100

Percentage return=104%

Therefore what would be the percentage return earned is 104%

B. Calculation for What would have been the return if the investor had notbought the stock on margin

Percentage return=($50-$30)/$30

Percentage return=$20/$30

Percentage return=66.67 %

Percentage return=66.7% Approximately

Therefore What would have been the return if the investor had notbought the stock on margin is 66.7%

Younie Corporation has two divisions: the South Division and the West Division. The corporation's net operating income is $95,40
zalisa [80]

Answer:

$122,500

Explanation:

Calculation for the amount of the common fixed expense not traceable to the individual divisions

First step is to calculate Total segment margin

Total segment margin = $43,600 + $174,300

Total segment margin= $217,900

Now let calculate the Common fixed expense

Common fixed expense = $217,900-$95,400

Common fixed expense $122,500

Therefore the amount of the common fixed expense not traceable to the individual divisions is $122,500

Which of the following formulas would allow you to copy it into another cell while keeping the row reference fixed?
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

$C$8

Explanation:

The Symbol $ means that by copying and pasting to another cell, the cell references will not change.

In this case, the references are "locked" onto column C. Copying the formula to some other location will not change the references since they are absolute.

He georgetown, south carolina, traffic division reported 40% of high-speed chases involving automobiles result in a minor or maj
stellarik [79]

Answer: The probability that 25 or more out of 50 high speed chases result in minor or major accidents is 0.097807364  or 9.781%.

The rate of accidents at 0.40 is a constant rate, and hence we can use the binomial distribution to calculate the probability.

The formula for computing the probability with the binomial distribution is:

P(X=x) = _{n}C_{x}*p^{x}*q^{n-x}

where

N  is number of trials  = 50

p is probability of of a hit in a single trial. In this case, p = 0.40

q is probability of of a miss in a single trial. Now q = 1 - p; q = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6 for this question

x will take on the whole numbers from 25  and continue upto 50

The questions asks us to compute the probability that 25 or more chases will result in an accident.  

We express this as P( X≥ 25) mathematically.

We can also express P( X≥ 25)  as P (x=25) + P(x=26) + ................ + P(50) i.e the sum of all the individual probabilities when x assumes each of the values from 25 upto 50.

That's why x will take on each of the whole numbers from 25 to 50.

We can compute P( X=25) by substituting the values in the formula above.

P(X=25) = _{50}C_{25}*0.4^{25}*0.6^{50-25}

P(X=25) = \frac{n!}{x!*(n-x)!}*0.4^{25}*0.6^{50-25}

P(X=25) = \frac{50!}{25!*(50-25)!}*0.4^{25}*0.6^{50-25}

P(x=25) = 0.040463604

Similarly we need to compute the probabilities for x =26, 27 and so on until x =50. The sum total of all these probabilities the answer.

The workings have been made in excel and are attached to this answer as a picture.
