When a deliverable arrived, Craig met with the team member responsible
for ordering the deliverable to confirm it was the correct model and size.


Which of the following project elements was Craig monitoring in this scenario?

a. Budget
b. Schedule
c. Scope
d. Risk

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Project Element Craig Monitored in this scenario:

d. Risk

Explanation:

The element of the project that Craig monitored ensures that the deliverable conforms with the correct model and size because there is the risk that this could not conform if a deliverable was not not checked with the team member who ordered the deliverable.  Since higher risks of deliverables not conforming to model and size would render the whole project unsuccessful, Craig has to meet with the team member responsible.  In order words, the meeting between Craig and the team member for confirmation of correct model and size eliminates the risks of non-conformance.

Answer 2

In the example above when deliverable came and Craig met with the team member for ordering confirming whether the model and size was correct, Craig was monitoring Risk. So the correct option is D.

Risk refers to the possibility chances that the desired or the expected result will be obtained from the activities that are undertaken. Risk is directly related to the reward of such activity.

In the example above where Craig confirms whether the model and size of goods arrived were correct with the help of the team member who ordered such deliverable, risk was being monitored.

In this case the risk can be denoted by value of 1 as the chances of getting the correct model and size are equal with chances of getting the incorrect model and size. Risk can be denoted by beta .

[tex]\rm Risk = \beta[/tex]

Monitoring of risk is an important aspect so as to ensure whether the activities undertaken for the benefit of the business are standing true to their efforts or not.

Hence, the correct option is D that Craig was monitoring risk by checking the deliverable was correct in terms of model and size with the help of a team member.

On July 1, Shady Creek Resort borrowed $250,000 cash by signing a 10-year, 8% installment note requiring equal payments each June 30 of $37,258. What amount of interest expense will be included in the first annual payment

Answers

Answer:

Interest expense = $20,000

Explanation:

Loan Amortization: A loan repayment method structured such that a series of equal periodic installments will be paid for certain number of periods to offset both the loan principal amount and the accrued interest.  

The annual installment is computed as follows:  

Annual installment= Loan amount/annuity factor  

Annual installment is already given as = 37,258 (already given)

Interest payment = interest rate × Loan balance at the beginning of the year

DATA

Interest rate = 8%

Loan balance at the beginning of the year = $250,000

Interest expense = 8%× 250,000 = $20000

Principal paid = Annual installment - Interest = 37,258-20,000 = 17,258 (this  is not required but to explain the concept)

Interest expense = $20,000

You short-sell 100 shares of Tuckerton Trading Co., now selling for $44 per share. What is your maximum possible gain, ignoring transactions cost

Answers

Answer:

$4,400

Explanation:

Calculation for the maximum possible gain, ignoring transactions cost

Using this formula

Maximum possible gain = Sale proceeds - Cost of purchasing the share

Let plug in the formula

Maximum possible gain = (100 shares *$44 per shares)- (100 shares *0) = 14000

Maximum possible gain=$4,400-0

Maximum possible gain=$4,400

Therefore the maximum possible gain, ignoring transactions cost will be $4,400

A company estimates that it can sell 5,000 headphone each week if it prices each set of headphones at $20.

Answer:

At what price is revenue maximum?

$13 and $12 per unit (maximum revenue $156,000)

What is the maximum revenue and how many sets of headphones should the company expect to sell?

$156,000

Write your conclusions in a sentence.

When the price is higher than $12 per unit, demand is elastic, which means any decrease in price will result in a larger proportional increase in quantity demanded. This in turn increases total revenue. Below $12 per unit, demand is inelastic, which means that a decrease in price will result in a smaller increase in quantity demanded.

The risk-free rate is 5% and the tangency portfolio has 20% expected return and 40% return standard deviation. A risk-loving investor has $1000 of wealth and she seeks to attain 27.5% expected return. How much money does she need to borrow from the bank? A. 250 B. 500 C. 1500 D. 1000

Answers

Answer:

B. 500

Explanation:

Portfolio return =  Weighted average return

Let the amount invested in portfolio is x and amount invested in risk free = 1000 - x

27.5% = 20%*x + 5%*(1000-x)

27.5% * 1,000 = 20%x + 50 – 5%x

0.275 * 1,000 = 15%x + 50

275 - 50 = 15%x

225 = 15%x

x = 225 / 0.15

x  =  $1,500

Hence, the amount of money borrowed = $1,500 - $1000

= $500

Wilson Dover Inc. The total value (debt plus equity) of Wilson Dover Inc. is $500 million and the face value of its 1-year coupon debt is $200 million. The volatility (σ) of Wilson Dover's total value is 0.60, and the risk-free rate is 5%. Assume that N(d1) = 0.9720 and N(d2) = 0.9050. Refer to the data for Wilson Dover Inc. What is the yield on Wilson Dover's debt? a. 7.05% b. 6.04% c. 6.70% d. 7.42% e. 6.36%

Answers

Answer:

7.42%

Explanation:

Value = 500 million

Amount of debt = 200 million

Time = year

Volatility = 6%

Risk free rate = 0.05

Nd1 = 0.9720

Nd2 = 0.9050

We have to calculate the value =

500 - (500 x 0.9720 - 200 x e^-0.05 x 0.9050)

= 186.17 million

We now calculate the yield

(200/186.17)^1 - 1

= 0.0742

= 7.42%

Fed is open to changing bond policy Fed policymakers signaled for the first time that they could increase or decrease stimulation of the economy in the​ future, but not now. ​Source: Los Angeles Times​, May​ 1, 2013 What are the ripple effects and time lags that the Fed must consider in deciding when to increase or decrease stimulation of the​ economy?

Answers

Answer:

When the Fed raises the federal funds rate, the inflation rate decreases about two years later.

Explanation:

When trying to stimulate the economy either by increasing or decreasing, policymakers have to take into consideration how it would effect interest rate, amount of money available in the economy, loans that would be acquired by banks and the behavior of interest rate.

Interest rate can be impacted quickly even though the period of time it would take for such action to have a reflection on what quantity of money is available in the economy. Then also a period of 2 years would be taken for this action to take effect on inflation.

Therefore

When the Fed raises the federal funds rate, the inflation rate decreases about two years later.

c. $39600.
d. $2,926.00.
e. $962.19.

Answers

Answer: a. $295.81.

Explanation:

Using the value basis would mean that the product's share of the total market value will be used to determine it's share of the cost.

Total Market Value = Product L Market Value + Product M Market Value

= (310 lbs * 10.2) + ( 260 lbs * 20.4)

= ‭3,162‬ + ‭5,304‬

= $‭8,466‬

Product L's share of total market value

= 3,162/8,466

Product L's share of the $792 based on share of total market value

= (3,162/8,466) * 792

= $295.8072

Determine the necessary average annual income (using straight-line depreciation) that must be achieved on this project for it to be acceptable to Harris Co.

Answers

Answer:

annual income = $70,292.52

Explanation:

initial outlay $900,000

in order to determine the net cash flows per year we can use the present value of an ordinary annuity:

PV = annual cash flow x annuity factor

PV = $900,000 annuity factor, 15%, 12 years = 6.1944

annual cash flow = $900,000 / 6.1944 = $145,292.52

annual cash flow = [(revenue - operating costs - depreciation) x (1 - tax rate)] + depreciation

revenue - operating costs - depreciation = annual incometax rate = 0?depreciation = $900,000 / 12 = $75,000

$145,292.52 = annual income + $75,000

annual income = $145,292.52 - $75,000 = $70,292.52

Answers

Answer:

Price of bond $4,092.49

Explanation:

Computation the price of the bond

Using this formula

Price of bond=Par value*1/(1+YTM/2)^(2*time period)

Where,

Par value=$10,000

1/(1+YTM/2)=1/(1+0.043/2)

(2*time period)=(2*21 years)

Let plug in the formula

Price of bond=$10,000*1/(1+0.043/2)^(2*21)

Price of bond=$10,000*1/(1.0215)^42

Price of bond=$10,000*(0.97895252)^42

Price of bond=$10,000*0.4092497467

Price of bond=$4,092.49

Therefore the price of the bond will be $4,092.49

Answers

Answer:

disparity between 2 or more prices allow investors to yield a sure profit

Explanation:

Arbitrage is defined as the practice where there is simultaneous buying and selling of an asset so as to benefit from a price difference.

Usually the price differences occur in different markets, so the arbitrator acts as a supplier of the goods to market where goods are to be sold.

For example if a company buys fertiliser from a whole seller and immediately sells the goods to a farmer's cooperative at higher price this is arbitrage.

So abitrage opportunity is when disparity between 2 or more prices allow investors to yield a sure profit

Pioneer Venture Capital firm recently offered a biotech company $50 million funding in exchange for 25% of the biotech company's ownership. What is the company's implied post-money valuation

Answers

Answer:

The company's implied post-money valuation is $200 million.

Explanation:

Post-money valuation is a technique that is employed to determine the value of a firm after making an investment in the company.

The calculation of the implied post-money valuation is done by dividing the investment amount offered by the percentage of ownership the investor is getting in exchange. This can be expressed as follows:

Implied post money valuation = Investment amount offered / Ownership percentage ............................ (1)

Since from the question, we have:

Investment amount offered = $50,000,000

Ownership percentage = 25%

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Implied post money valuation = $50,000,000 / 25% = $200,000,000

Therefore, the company's implied post-money valuation is $200 million.

If the price of steel, an input into the production of automobiles, rises, and at the same time the price of gasoline rises, what will happen to the equilibrium price and quantity of automobiles

Answers

Answer:

a decrease in equilibrium quantity

an indeterminate effect on equilibrium price.

Explanation:

An increase in the price of steel would raise the production cost of cars. as a result the supply curve would shift inwards or to the left. price would rise and quantity would fall.

A rise in the price of gasoline would increase the cost of fuelling one's car. As a result the demand for cars would fall. the demand curve would shift inward. Quantity and price would fall.

Taking these two effects together, there would be a decrease in equilibrium quantity but an indeterminate effect on equilibrium price.

he beginning share price for a security over a three-year period was $50. Subsequent year-end prices were $62, $58 and $64. The arithmetic average annual rate of return and the geometric average annual rate of return for this stock were:

Answers

Answer:

Arithmetic average rate of return = 9.30%

geometric average annual rate of return = 8.58%

Explanation:

share price at the beginning = $50

time = 3 year

price at the end of year 1 =  $62

price at the end of year 2 = $58

price at the end of year 3 =  $64

Annual rate of return in year 1 = ($62 / $50 - 1) x 100 = 24%

Annual rate of return in year 2 = ($58 / $62 - 1) x 100 = -6.45%

Annual rate of return in year 3 = \($64 / $58 - 1) x 100  = 10.34%

Arithmetic average rate of return = sum of annual rate of return / 3

Arithmetic average rate of return =  (24% + -6.45% + 10.34%) / 3

Arithmetic average rate of return = 9.30%

geometric average annual rate of return = { (1 + r1) x (1 + r2) x (1 + r3) }^1/3 - 1

= (1.24) x (0.9355) x (1.1034)^1/3 - 1  =  8.58%

In which of the following situations would a delegation of contractual duties be allowed? Multiple Choice A painter hired to paint your home. A sculptor hired to sculpt your bust. An actor hired to perform in a play. A surgeon performing brain surgery.

Answers

Answer:

A painter hired to paint your home.

Explanation:

Delegation of contractual duty occurs when the individual that is supposed to perform a task transfers the responsibility of performing the task to another person.

For example if someone is supposed to paint a house but he has other engagements. He can delegate to another painter to perform the painting.

Delegation does not transfer contractual rights as the original person still collects payment for performance of the task.

Usually delegation can occur for tasks that do not require special skill and can be performed by anyone.

In the other scenarios special skill is required so delegation will not be usually allowed.

Thank you :)Since the publication of the first novel of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight saga in 2005, millions of readersall over the world, the majority of whom are teenage girls and women, have fallen for the love story ofBella and Edward. Furthered by the release of the movie adaptations of the first three volumes in2009 and 2010, critics have started to wonder about the foundation of Twilight-mania, especiallyconcerning the basic theme of the story, namely the vampire myth, which, throughout its literaryhistory, is rather a reflection of "adolescent male fantasy" (Twitchell, Living 6). Still, the indisputablykitsny story of an inconspicuous teenager who falls in love with the vampire next door fascinatestoday's emancipated and independent females and thus can be regarded as an essential part of thesuccess. It would seem that the attraction derives from Meyer's unique interweaving of differentgeneric elements, a strategy which can be found in other late 20th- and 21st-century popularliterature. Thus, for instance, the "Harry Potter books have been received with manic enthusiasm"because they, too, "uniquely combine several kinds of appeal" (O'Keefe 176), such as the mixture ofpublic school story and fantasy. In the Twilight Saga, we find a similar amalgamation of variousdifferent literary genres - fantasy fiction for young adults, vampire story, gothic romance, andArthurian legend. It is a medley, a generic crossing that is - not least due to its focus on an activeyoung heroine - bound to entice a primarily female readership.Through an analysis of the figure of the vampire in literature as well as in folklore it will be observedto what extent Edward differs from the folkloric blood-sucking revenant and also from the master of allliterary vampires, Dracula. Furthermore, it will be investigated how his knightly behaviour towardsBella contributes to the impression of a romantic transformation of the gothic form. Special attentionwill also be paid to the figure of Bella, who, on the one hand seems to be presented as the femmefragile or damsel in distress concerning her physicality, but, on the other hand, represents a figure ofidentification for female readers as the independent, strong-willed hero of young adult fiction. Theanalysis seeks to prove that the combination of these various aspects of different genres andtraditions allows Meyer to create a new kind of vampire love story.
