Answer:

Rational is based on the logical preference. Being irrational does not means that the choice is made based on monetary preference. It is more logical than monetary.

Explanation:

The two friends took same courses in college but after the completion of college degree one decides to go for MBA and other pursues PhD in English. The expected earnings of MBA are higher than PhD but one of friend who chooses the PhD has not considered the logical decision making based on money. He might have chose the PhD because he is more interested in becoming a professor rather than a business professional.

Maggie’s mom agrees to let Maggie buy small gifts for some of her friends. Each gift costs $4. Maggie’s mom gave her a budget of
solmaris [256]

Maggie can buy 3 gifts

Solution:

Total budget $19

Each gift costs $4

Shipping fee $7

a.  Total budget — Shipping fee = $19 - $7 = $12  

Maggie’s got $12 more

Each gift costs $4  

Number of gifts that Maggie can buy = \frac{12}{4}  =3  

b.   Let x represent the number of gifts.  

                      19 = 7 +4x

       Subtract -7 from both sides

             19 - 7= 7 + 4x - 7

            Now Simplify,

                   12 = 4x

         Divide both sides by 4

                   \frac{12}{4} = \frac{4x}{4}

                      x = 3

Jensen Co. expects to pay €50,000 in one month for its imports from France. It also expects to receive €200,000 for its exports
Julli [10]

Answer:

-$5,873

Explanation:

For computation of maximum one month loss in dollars first we need to find out the net exposure and maximum one month loss in percentage which is shown below:-

Net exposure = Received amount - Paid amount

= €200,000 - €50,000

= €150,000

Maximum one - month loss in Percentage = Next month percentage - (Alpha × Euro percentage)

= 2% - (1.96 × 2.5%)

= -2.9%

Maximum one - month loss in Dollars = Net exposure × Current spot rate of the euro × Maximum one - month loss in Percentage

= €150,000 × $1.35 × (-0.029)

= -$5,873
