Answer: 8%

Explanation:

Reward to risk ratio = (Expected return - Risk free rate) / Beta

Expected return = Risk free rate + Beta * ( Market return - Risk free rate)

= 4.4% + 1.2 * (12.4% - 4.4%)

= 14%

Reward to risk ratio = (14% - 4.4%) / 1.2

= 8%

The rent for a one-bedroom apartment in Southern California follows the normal distribution with a mean of $2,200 per month and
andriy [413]

Answer:

The probability is 1.

Explanation:

Despite that the he distribution is positively skewed, the distribution of sample means of one-bedroom apartments  will still be a a normal distribution based on Central Limit Theorem.

Since we have

μ = mean = 2200

SD = standard deviation  = 250

n = sample size = 50

Therefore,

Standard error = SD ÷ √n

                        = 250 ÷ √50

                        = 250 ÷ 7.07106781186548

                        = 35.3553390593274  approximately 35.36

Standardize xbar to z = (xbar - μ) ÷ (SD ÷ √n)

Therefore, we have:

P(xbar > 1,950) = P(z > (1,950 - 2200) ÷ 35.36)

                        = P(z > - 250 ÷ 35.36)                      

                        = P(z > -7.07) = 1

Therefore, the probability of selecting a sample of 50 one bedroom apartments is 1 which can be said to be certain.

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

(a) How this episode is likely to affect the economic well-being of people in the country

(b) How this episode is likely to affect the economy’s measured GDP

In this case, GDP measurements will shift causing less of an input in private spending and an increase in government spending due to subsidies to increase home-building.

How is the principle of open opportunity different from guaranteeing success to everyone in the marketplace?
sesenic [268]
The principle of open opportunity in the marketplace means that anyone who wants to put up a business is welcome to do so. However, the success of his business rests entirely on how well it is received in the market.

Guaranteeing success to everyone in the marketplace is impossible. Competition is always present. Demand and supply can be affected by factors beyond human control.
