= 0.15 + 0.75 × (0.15  - 0.085)

= 0.19875 or 19.88%

Hence, the correct option is D. 19.88%

On its first day of trading, Twitter closed at $41.57 per share. Two years later and the price was $26.85, what was the annual return on the stock if returns are compounded daily?
A. 21.86%.
B. -21.85%.
C. -5.99%.
D. -19.63%.

Answers

Answer:

B. -21.85%.

Explanation:

Calculation for the annual return on the stock

First step is to calculate the Number of periods

Number of periods = 2 * 365 days in a year

Number of periods= 730

Second Step is to calculate the Daily return using this formula

Daily return = (Future value / initial value)^1/n - 1

Let plug in the formula

Daily return = (26.85 / 41.57)^1/730 - 1

Daily return = (0.645898)^1/730 - 1

Daily return = 0.999401 - 1

Daily return = -0.00059861*100

Daily return = -0.059861%

Last step is to calculate annual return

Using this formula

Annual return=Daily return/ Numbers of days in a year

Annual return = -0.059861% * 365

Annual return = -21.85%

Therefore the annual return on the stock if returns are compounded daily will be 21.85%

An entrepreneur founded his company using $200,000 of his own money, issuing himself 200,000 shares of stock. An angel investor bought an additional 100,000 shares for $200,000. The entrepreneur now sells another 400,000 shares of stock to a venture capitalist for $1 million. What is the post-money valuation of the company?

Answers

Answer:

the post money valuation of the company is $1,750,000

Explanation:

The computation of the post money valuation is shown below:

Given that

Value of 400,000 shares is  $1 million.

So,

The Value of 1 share is

= $1 million ÷ 400,000

= $2.5

And,  

Total number of shares is

= 400,000 + 200,000 + 100,000

= 700,000

Now  

Total value of shares is

= $2.5 × 700,000

= $1,750,000

hence, the post money valuation of the company is $1,750,000

Susan Pinsky's checking account had a balance of $137.66. She wrote a check for $23.62 on September 3. On September 7, the bank made an automatic transfer (AT) of $25.41 to pay her phone bill. She made a deposit of $146.24 on September 12. What is the new balance Pinsky's account?

Answers

Answer:

$234.87

Explanation:

Pinky's new balance will be the opening balance plus additional. Deposits minus withdrawals. The new balance will be the starting balance plus cash-in minus the cash-out.

Starting balance =$137.66

Cash-in:  $146.24

Cash-out :  check $23.62 + (AT) of $25.41 =$49.03

New balance = $137.66 + $146.24 - $49.03

=$283.9- 49.03

=$234.8

When an investor group or institutional investment firm buys stock in a company in anticipation of the stock going up, with no intention of holding the stock as part of a long-term strategy of investing, and then selling the stock to make a quick profit is known as:__________.
a. Shorting stock
b. Capital asset pricing
c. Simplification
d. Derivative inversion
e. Arbitrage

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the option A: Shorting stock.

Explanation:

To begin with, in the world of the investments the term known as "Short Selling" refers to trading strategy that is famously known due to the fact that is totally speculative because the investor who buys the stock does not plan on keeping it for a long period of time but instead he plans to sell right away once that the price has risen up from its original price. Therefore that when an institutional investment firm buys stock in a company in anticipation of the stock going up with no intention of holding the stock and then selling to make a quick profit then the investors are selling in short

Many firms offer substantial rebates by mail or coupons for discounts at the point of sale. The people who use the rebates or coupons have ______ than the people who don't use them.
a. greater price sensitivity.
b. less price sensitivity.
c. inverted price sensitivity.
d. the same price sensitivity.

Answers

Answer:

a. greater price sensitivity.

Explanation:

Price sensitivity can be defined as a measure of the degree to which the selling price of a product affects the purchasing behavior of a customer.

This ultimately implies that, a price sensitive customer is impacted negatively by the price of a product and as such would be stuck between making the decision of whether to buy or not buy the product.

Hence, when customers are paying the bill themselves, they are likely to be more price sensitive because they are solely responsible for the payment. Therefore, it's an innate nature of human to be less sensitive to the price of goods and services when it's another person paying for them or say when sharing the cost.

In this scenario, many firms offer substantial rebates by mail or coupons for discounts at the point of sale. Thus, the people who use the rebates or coupons have greater price sensitivity than the people who don't use them.

Compute the takt time for a system where the total time per shift is 480 minutes, there is one shift, and workers are given two 15-minute breaks and 45 minutes for lunch. Daily demand is 300 units.

Answers

Answer:

1.35 minutes per cycle

Explanation:

Computation for the Computer Takt time

First step is to compute net time available per shift

( 2 x 15) + 45 = 75 minutes breaks

480 - 75= 405 minutes per shift

Second step is to calculate the Net time available per shift

Net time available per shift = (405 x 1 shifts per day)

Net time available per shift=405

Last step is to calculate the compute the takt time

Using this formula

Compute the takt time= Net time available per day / Daily demand

Let plug in the formula

Compute the takt time= 405 / 300

Compute the takt time= 1.35 minutes per cycle

Therefore the Compute the takt time will be 1.35 minutes per cycle

05. In identifying risks to then manage and control, as the portfolio
manager you are consulting organizational process assets such as:​

Answers

Introduction
“Project risk analysis,” as described by The Project Management Institute (PMI®), “includes the processes concerned with conducting risk management, planning, identification analysis, response, and monitoring and control on a project;./…” (PMI, 2004, p 237) These processes include risk identification and quantification, risk response development and risk response control.

Because these processes interact with each other as well as with processes in other parts of an organization, companies are beginning to measure risk across all of their projects as part of an enterprise portfolio.

Risk management can be as simple as identifying a list of technological, operational and business risks, or as comprehensive as in-depth schedule risk analysis using Monte Carlo simulation. But because risk is a driver in an organization's growth – the greater the risk, the greater the reward – the adoption of a structured enterprisewide project risk analysis program will give managers confidence in their decision-making to foster organizational growth and increase ROI for their stakeholders.

Choosing the right projects

How well an organization examines the risks associated with its initiatives, how well it understands the way that projects planned or underway are impacted by risk, and how well it develops mitigation strategies to protect the organization, can mean the difference between a crisis and an opportunity.

Examples abound of companies that have seen their fortunes rise or drop based on the effectiveness of their risk management – a pharmaceutical company makes headlines when its promising new drug brings unforeseen side effects. Or a large telecom corporation pours millions of dollars into perfecting long distance, while new technologies are presenting more exciting opportunities.

Today that pharmaceutical is distracted by lawsuits and financial payouts, finding itself with a shrinking pipeline of new drugs. The telecom, on the other hand, after using a portfolio risk management software application to rationalize and rank its initiatives, made the decision to shift its research dollars away from perfecting long distance and into developing VOIP -- rejuvenating and reinforcing its leadership position.

When dealing with tangible products, consistency is usually measured in terms of:_____.
A. Features.
B. Attributes.
C. Systems.
D. Defects.

Answers

Answer:

D. Defects

Explanation:

In order to meet the unending needs and wants of consumers, to satisfactorily provide products that meets their requirements, tastes or preferences various manufacturing companies use five (5) main methods of production, and these are; labour-intensive production, mass production, batch production, capital-intensive production and job production.

Generally in Economics, the question of how goods are produced, determines how resources are combined in the production of goods.

This ultimately implies that, before a manufacturer produce its goods it determines the amount of resources that are available. These resources that are to be combined for the purpose of production of goods are entrepreneur, land, labor, and capital, which are generally referred to as the four (4) factors of production.

A tangible product refers to any product that can be physically touched by the end users or consumers such as electronic gadgets, bread, furniture, cooking utensils, etc.

When dealing with tangible products, consistency is usually measured in terms of defects. Any goods (products) manufactured by a company that is consistently devoid of defects such as broken parts or missing parts is generally considered to be of high quality and as such consumers would feel safe to use or buy such tangible products at all times.

Menard quit his high school teaching job, which paid $60,000 per year, to start a business that prepares students for the SAT exam. His first year in business generated the following revenues and costs: Menard's economic cost of SAT preparation is $____. 20,000 15,000 105,000 100,000

Answers

Answer: $105,000

Explanation:

Maynard's economic cost is the sum of both his implicit and explicit costs.

Explicit costs are the normal accounting costs of running a business which in this case are supplies and employee salaries.

Implicit costs are the opportunity costs which means that this is the benefit foregone from another alternative for the current decision one has made. In this case that would be the $60,000 Menard could have been making from his high school teaching job had he not quit to prepare students for the SATs.

Economic costs;

= Explicit + Implicit costs

= 30,000 + 15,000 + 60,000

= $105,000
