Answer: C. The beta coefficient of a stock is normally found by regressing past returns on a stock against past market returns. One could also construct a scatter diagram of returns on the stock versus those on the market, estimate the slope of the line of best fit, and use it as beta. However, this historical beta may differ from the beta that exists in the future.

Explanation:

The beta coefficient is used by an economic entity to measure how volatile an individual stock is when such stock is being compared to the market's systematic risk.

Of the options given in the question, the correct answer is option C which states that "C.

Evan McWilliams was involved in a two-car accident with Francis Sullivan. It was Evan's fault and Francis was seriously injured

Furkat [3]

Answer:

Bodily Injury Liability

Explanation:

Since the accident that left Francis seriously injured was Evan's fault, the automobile Insurance policy that will cover the cost of Francis's treatment would be Bodily Injury Insurance Policy.

When a user of this Insurance policy cause a car accident that injures another person, bodily injury liability coverage helps pay for the medical expenses of the person or persons injured.

One should carry a bodily-injury coverage of at least $100,000 per person, and $300,000 per accident, and property-damage coverage of $50,000, or a minimum of $300,000 on a single-limit policy.

This goes to define Bodily injury liability as a car insurance coverage that pays for injuries a driver causes to other people, including other drivers, passengers and pedestrians. This policy covers or takes care of medical expenses and lost wages as well as legal and funeral expenses in some cases of the injured persons.

This is an annuity type of question. Using a financial calculator, input the following to find the PV of the Ordinary annuity;

Total duration; N = 15*12 = 300

Monthly rate; I/Y = 7.2%/12 = 0.6%

One-time future cashflow; FV = 0

Recurring monthly payment; PMT = 150

then compute present value; CPT PV = $20,845.24

b.) This is an <em>Annuity Due </em>type of question since the recurring monthly payment occur at the beginning of the month.

Using a financial calculator, change the mode to "BEG" and input the following to find the PV of the annuity due;

Total duration; N = 15*12 = 300

Monthly rate; I/Y = 7.2%/12 = 0.6%

One-time future cashflow; FV = 0

Recurring monthly payment; PMT = 150

allsm [11]

Answer:

d) All current customers who up to a certain point in time have NOT bought in the jewelry category but did buy jewelry in the next time frame

Explanation:

Cross-sell opportunities are employed by online and in-person marketers with the aim of convincing buyers to chose another product from a product category that they are interested in. For example, if the customer bought a necklace, the site might suggest that users who bought a necklace also bought a pendant. The aim of this suggestion is to convince the consumer to purchase an item that might be useful to him judging from the products he just indicated interest in.

Therefore, a good cross-sell model will identify customers who bought jewelry but not from a particular jewelry category.
