Answer:
Utility curve which is just tangent to the efficient frontier.
Explanation:
The optimal portfolio of the investor is the maximum gain for the maximum risk. If risk factor is increased beyond optimal level it does not necessarily means that returns will also increase. Efficient frontier is curved because there is diminishing marginal utility to risk. For every additional unit of risk added into the portfolio gains a smaller amount of return.
Which statement best describes the outlook for small businesses in international markets? Multiple Choice The world is a larger, and potentially a more lucrative market than the U.S. domestic market. Most foreign buyers prefer to deal with large, well-known corporations rather than small businesses. Higher business costs eliminate the profit opportunities in global markets. The threat of terrorist activities prevents small businesses from competing internationally.
Answer:
The correct option is "The world is a larger, and potentially a more lucrative market than the U.S. domestic market."
Explanation:
An international market can be described as a market that exists outside of a company's home country's international borders. This is different from a domestic market that is located within company's own country.
The international market comprises of the whole world or all the countries in the world. As a result, the international market is larger and more profitable than the domestic market for small businesses.
Therefore, the correct option is "The world is a larger, and potentially a more lucrative market than the U.S. domestic market."

Scenario: Over the last several months, there has been a rapid increase in the number of loans that banks have provided for mortgages and small businesses. This change has raised concerns for the Fed. Today, the Fed has announced an increase in the interest rates that it is charging banks. In this scenario, what is the Fed trying to do by increasing interest rates
Answer:
Decrease the total spending.
Explanation:
When the number of loanable funds market is high, interest rates are low, which thereby insentivises spending. Banks will loan out more and thus the economy will be in a short-term expansionary phase. The feds will implement an increase in interest rate via fiscal policies and decrease the overall spending.
This is known as *crowding out*.

State the type of skewness for a frequency distribution whose three quartiles are 21, 18 and 20.
Answer:
Left skew
Explanation:
Given the quartiles of a distribution :
21, 18 and 20
Lower quartile, Q1 = 18
Median, Q2 = 20
Upper quartile, Q3 = 21
Representing the quartiles of the distribution as box plot, we can see that the median, Q2 is much closer to the third quartile, Q3, Than it is to the first quartile, Q1. Hence, we have a left skew or a negatively skewed distribution.

291. Much of the hope for continued improvement of the economy lies in the projection of increasing consumer spending this year. . A. projection of increasing consumer spending B. projection of consumers increasing spending for C. projected consumer spending increase 37 D. consumer spending that is projected to increase E. increase in consumer spending that is projected for
Answer:
The correct answer is E:
Much of the hope for continued improvement of the economy lies in the increase in consumer spending that is projected for.
Explanation:
i. Much of the hope (this is the main Subject of the conversation)
ii. for continued improvement (this is the Prepositional phrase. It modifies the noun “hope”)
iii. of the economy (this is a Prepositional phrase – it modifies the noun “improvement”)
iv. lies in the projection (This is the main Verb – “lies”)
v. of increasing consumer spending this year. (This is the prepositional phrase. It modifies the noun “projection”)
At first glance, it would appear that the positive experience that is anticipated is the projection.
A projection (unqualified) in this case is an estimate of how a thing will be in the future.
Having stated this, we see that it is more logical to hope for a positive experience that will occur than to just hope. Hence the hope is really in the increase in consumer spending not in the projection as a separate word.
(E) therefore is the Correct option because in this option that in this option “that” modifies “increase”.

Olivia bought a $1,874 sprinkler system with her credit card. Her credit card has an APR of 10.31%, compounded monthly. She made no other purchases on the card until the sprinkler system was fully paid for, which took four years of identical monthly payments. Over the eight years that Olivia kept the sprinkler system, it used an average of $2.11 in water per week. After eight years, what percentage of the total lifetime cost of the system did the original price make up
Answer:
Percentage of the total lifetime cost of the system that the original price made up = 59.07%
Explanation:
The monthly payments for the sprinkler system can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:
PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)
Where;
PV = Present value or original price of the sprinkler = $1,874
P = Monthly payment = ?
r = Monthly interest rate = APR / 12 = 10.31% / 12 = 0.1031 / 12 = 0.00859166666666667
n = number of months = number of years of payment * 12 = 4 * 12 = 48
Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve P, we have:
$1,874 = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.00859166666666667))^48) / 0.00859166666666667)
$1,874 = P * 39.1976732321759
P = $1,874 / 39.1976732321759
P = $47.81
Therefore, we have:
Total payment for the sprinkler = Monthly payments * Number of months = P * n = $47.81 * 48 = $2,294.88
Total cost in water = Cost in water per week * Number of weeks in a year * Number of years that Olivia kept the sprinkler system = $2.11 * 52 * 8 = $877.76
Total lifetime cost of the system = Total payment for the sprinkler + Total cost in water = $2,294.88 + $877.76 = $3,172.64
Percentage of the total lifetime cost of the system that the original price made up = (Original price of the sprinkler / Total lifetime cost of the system) * 100 = ($1,874 / $3,172.64) * 100 = 59.07%

Assume the perpetual inventory system is used. 1) Green Company purchased merchandise inventory that cost $16,100 under terms of 3/10, n/30 and FOB shipping point. 2) Green Company paid freight cost of $610 to have the merchandise delivered. 3) Payment was made to the supplier on the inventory within 10 days. 4) All of the merchandise was sold to customers for $23,700 cash and delivered under terms FOB destination with freight cost amounting to $410. What is the amount of gross margin that results from these transactions
Answer:
$7,473
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the amount of gross margin that results from these transactions
First step is to calculate COGS
COGS=$16,100-($16,100 * 0.03)+$610
COGS=$16,100-$483+$610
COGS=$16,227
Now let calculate the Gross margin
Using this formula
Gross margin = Sales revenue - COGS
Let plug in the formula
Gross margin=$23,700 - $16,227
Gross margin =$7,473
Therefore the amount of gross margin that results from these transactions is $7,473
For example, the sticky-price theory asserts that the output prices of some goods and services adjust slowly to changes in the price level. Suppose firms announce the prices for their products in advance, based on an expected price level of 100 for the coming year. Many of the firms sell their goods through catalogs and face high costs of reprinting if they change prices. The actual price level turns out to be 90. Faced with high menu costs, the firms that rely on catalog sales choose not to adjust their prices. Sales from catalogs will _____________.
Answer:
fall
Explanation:
We know that when demand for goods and services are low, this can impact prices since there would be a fall in sales. This happened due to the fact that people would reduce their demand for the good given the increase in their price. From the question that we have here we have been told that the prices that were set by the catalogue when compared to the actual price level is on the high side.
given this explanation, the conclusion is that the sales from catalogues are going to fall
On April 1, 2021, Austere Corporation issued $320,000 of 15% bonds at 106. Each $1,000 bond was sold with 40 detachable stock warrants, each permitting the investor to purchase one share of common stock for $19. On that date, the market value of the common stock was $16 per share and the market value of each warrant was $3. Austere should record what amount of the proceeds from the bond issue as an increase in liabilities
Answer:
$300,800
Explanation:
First Calculate the proceeds from the issuance of the bond
Proceeds from bonds = Face value x Price rate = $320,000 x 106% = $339,200
Now calculate the fair value of the warrant issued
Fair value of warrant = Numbers of shares x Stock per bond x Market value of each Warrant = ( $320,000 / $1,000 ) x 40 x $3 = 320 x 40 x $3 = $38,400
Liability Portion = Procedds from bonds - Fair value of waarants = $339,200 - $38,400 = $300,800

A firm has a demand function p=108-5q and the cost function c=-12q+q^2. find the price at which profit is maximum. find the maximum profit. also find the output for maximum cost.
Answer:
[tex](a)\ q=3.5[/tex]
[tex](b)\ t_{max} = 120.25[/tex]
(c) No maximum
Explanation:
Given
[tex]p = 108 - 5q[/tex]
[tex]c = -12q + q^2[/tex]
Solving (a): The price at maximum profit.
The profit (t) is calculated using the following function
[tex]t = p - c[/tex] --- price- cost
So, we have:
[tex]t = 108 - 5q - (-12q + q^2)[/tex]
Open bracket
[tex]t = 108 - 5q +12q - q^2[/tex]
[tex]t = 108 +7q - q^2[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]t = - q^2 + 7q + 108[/tex] --- this is the profit function
A quadratic function is represented as:
[tex]y = ax^2 + bx + c[/tex]
The maximum is:
[tex]x = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]
By comparison:
[tex]q = -\frac{7}{2*-1}[/tex]
[tex]q=3.5[/tex] ----- price at maximum profit
Solving (b): The maximum profit
The profit function is:
[tex]t = - q^2 + 7q + 108[/tex]
The maximum is:
[tex]t_{max} = -3.5^2 + 7 * 3.5 +108[/tex]
[tex]t_{max} = 120.25[/tex]
Solving (c): Maximum cost
We have:
[tex]c = -12q + q^2[/tex]
The maximum price of the above function is:
[tex]q = -\frac{-12}{2*1}[/tex] ---- from x = -b/2a
[tex]q = \frac{12}{2}[/tex]
[tex]q = 6[/tex]
So, the maximum cost is:
[tex]c_{max} = -12 * 6 + 6^2[/tex]
[tex]c_{max} = -36[/tex]
The cost function has no maximum; only minimum
