Answer:

A. standard deviation = $500, expected return = $5,000

Explanation:

For analysis which investment involved the least amount of risk we need to determine the coefficient of variation i.e. shown below:

As we know that

Coefficient of variance = standard deviation ÷ expected return

A = $500 ÷ $5,000 = 0.10

B = $700 ÷ $500 = 1.40

C = $900 ÷ $800 = 1.125

D = $400 ÷ 350 = 1.143

As it can be seen that investment A has the leas amount of risk hence, the same is to be considered

Two people apply for loans of the same amount. Due to differences in their credit scores, their payments differ by $72 per month

Vlada [557]

Answer:

$2592

Explanation:

Let the amount of loan applied for by both person be $x and $y respectively. If their loan differs by $72 each month, the second person would have applied for $(x+72) each month.

Amount applied by first person will be $x at the end of first month

Amount applied by second person will be $(x+72) at the end of first month

At the end of 36 months, the amount applied for by the first man will be $36x

At the end of 36 months, the amount applied for by the second man will be $36(x+72)

First person 'x' =$36x

Second person 'y' = $36(x+72)

If x pays $36x

y will pay $(36x+2592)

Their difference will become

$36x+$2592-$36x

= $2592

The person with the lower credit score will pay $2592 at the end of the 36-month loan
