Answer:

proxy server

Explanation:

A proxy server is an application on a server that manages the requests when a a client tries to get the resources from the server and when someone is trying to get into a website the proxy server makes the request, provides the response from the web server and sends the data so it can be visualized and in this process, it can block the access to certain websites. According to that, the answer is that you have to set up a proxy server to help with this request as it will allow you to block the websites.

Jay Seago is suing the manufacturer of his car for $3.5 million because of a defect that he believes caused him to have an accid

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Since the expected value is higher for not suing ($600,000), then Jay should not sue. The expected value of the best case scenario in case of suing is only $500,000 and in the expected value of the worst case scenario is -$37,500.

Explanation:

he decides to not sue = expected value $600,000

he decides to sue:

50% chance of winning

expected value

$2,000,000 x 50% x 50% = $500,000
$500,000 x 50% x 50% = $125,000

50% chance of losing

expected value = -$75,000 x 50% = -$37,500

g100num [7]

Complete question:

Assume that your uncle holds just one stock, East Coast Bank (ECB), which he thinks has very little risk. You agree that the stock is relatively safe, but you want to demonstrate that his risk would be even lower if he were more diversified. You obtain the following returns data for West Coast Bank (WCB). Both banks have had less variability than most other stocks over the past 5 years.

Year ECB WCB

2004 40.00% 40.00%

2005 -10.00% 15.00%

2006 35.00% -5.00%

2007 -5.00% -10.00%

2008 15.00% 35.00%

a. What is the expected return and risk of each stock?

b. Measured by the standard deviation of returns, by how much would your uncle's risk have been reduced if he had held a portfolio consisting of 60% in ECB and the remainder in WCB? In other words, what is the difference between portfolio's standard deviation and weighted average of components' standard deviations? (Hint: check the example on page 11-12 on my note).

Solution:

The estimated return of the stock is the average profit.

So the average of ECB is (40-10+35-5+15)/5

= $\frac{75 percent}{5}$

= 15% expected return

WCB expected return = 40+15-5-10+35

= $\frac{75 percent}{5}$

= 15%

They've had the same planned return.

This is generally defined in the Greek letter Mu, (U) A weighted average may also be used to calculate portfolio volatility.

Standard deviation of ECB is $\sqrt{{ sum [(x-U)^2]/5}}$

so for ECB:

$(40-15)^2$ = $25^2$ =6.25%

$(-10-15)^2$ = $-35^2$ = 0.1225

$(35-15)^2$ = $20^2$ = 0.04

$(-5-15)^2$ = $-20^2$ = 0.04

$(15-15)^2$ =0

now 0.0625+0.1225+0.04+0.04+0=0.265

stdev= $\sqrt{(0.265/5)}$ = 0.23

So WCB is the same except in a different order to make things quick I'm only going to add the median again WCB=0.23

Then the 60/40 portfolio will be the "weighted average" of the returns.

portfolio returns

2004: (60%*40%)+(40%*40%) = 40%

2005: (60%*-10%)+(40%*15%) = 0%

2006: (60%*35%)+(40%*-5%) = 19%

2007: (60%*-5%)+(40%*-10%) = -7%

2008:(60%*15%)+(40%*35%) = 23%

we have an average return of (40+19-7+23)/5 = 75/5 =15%

The estimated return of all combined stocks is a better way to do so.

we knew they both had expected returns of 15% so we can say

(60%*15%)+(40%*15%)=15% so the portfolio has an expected return of 15%

Now we do the standard deviation for the whole portfolio and get

$(40-15)^2$ = $25^2$ =6.25%

$(0-15)^2$ = - $25^2$ =6.25%

$(19-15)^2$ = $4^2$ = 0.16%

$(-7-15)^2$ = $-22^2$ = -4.84%

$(23-15)^2$ = $8^2$ = 0.64%

now add them up and get 9.78%

$\sqrt{(9.78%/5)}$ = 13.98%

Therefore, the normal portfolio variance is 13.98 per cent and the predicted portfolio return is 15 per cent.

Every stock has a standard deviation of 23 per cent and an average return of 15 per cent, meaning that the fund has the same estimated return but with less standard deviation. This ensures that the same gain is less costly. It's stronger than any of these products.

Camden Corporations agreed to build a warehouse for a client at an agreed contract price of $ 900,000. Expected (and actual) cos

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Key figures:

2016:

Revenue = $270,000

Expenses = $202,500

Income = $67,500

2017:

Revenue = $450,000

Expenses = $337,500

Income = $112,500

2018:

Revenue = $180,000

Expenses = $135,000

Income = $45,000

Explanation:

Under this method, percentage of work completed is determined using the following <u>formula:</u>

<em>Percentage of work completed = (Total Expenses incurred on the project till the close of the accounting period) ÷ (Total Estimated Cost of the Contract)</em>

Total estimated cost = $202,500 + $337,500 + $135,000 = $675,000

<u>2016:</u>

Percentage of work completed = ($202,500 ÷ $675,000)×100 = 30%

Expenses in 2016 = $202,500 (answer)

Revenue in 2016 = $900,000 × 30% = $270,000 (answer)

Income in 2016 = Revenue - Expenses

Income in 2016 = $270,000 - $202,500

Income in 2016 = $67,500 (answer)

<u>2017:</u>

Percentage of work completed = ($337,500 ÷ $675,000)×100 = 50%

Expenses in 2017 = $337,500 (answer)

Revenue in 2017 = $900,000 × 50% = $450,000 (answer)

Income in 2017 = Revenue - Expenses

Income in 2017 = $450,000 - $337,500

Income in 2017 = $112,500 (answer)

<u>2018:</u>

Percentage of work completed = ($135,000 ÷ $675,000)×100 = 20%

Expenses in 2018 = $135,000 (answer)

Revenue in 2018 = $900,000 × 20% = $180,000 (answer)

Income in 2018 = Revenue - Expenses

Income in 2018 = $180,000 - $135,000

Income in 2018 = $45,000 (answer)
