There are two benefits for why individual investors would choose mutual funds rather than individual stock purchases. The two benefits from the book are diversification and the expertise of mutual fund mangers. Look up Warren Buffet famous 10-year bet with a hedge fund manager in order to discuss how he would explain how we would choose mutual funds based on the benefits.

. Block A and Block B start from rest on a horizontal track. An ideal string pulls cart A with a constant force of 25 N, causing both of the carts to move together as they accelerate. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the blocks and the track is 0.10. Block A= 4.0kg and Block B= 1.0kg (pulled horizontally) Determine the magnitude of each individual force that acts on Block A and each individual force that acts on Block B.

Answer each sub-question by stating whether the term indicated would increase, decrease, stay the same, or not enough info to say. (Note: “increase” and “decrease” refer to the absolute value.)
a) In the binomial distribution, as N decreases, what happens to the value of the most likely outcome when P = .50?
B. For any N, as P increases from .10 to .50, what happens to the value of the most likely outcome?
C. For any N, as P increases from .50 to .90, what happens to the value of the most likely outcome?
D. When P = .5, what happens to the probability of the most likely individual outcome, as N increases?
E. When P = .8, what happens to the probability of the most likely individual outcome, as N increases?
F. In the binomial distribution, what happens to the value of the most likely individual outcome as N increases and, at the same time, P increases?
G) When P = .5, what happens to the individual probabilities of the very most extreme outcomes (that is, the very highest and lowest possible outcomes) as N increases?

A Business School far-far away would like to build a new building. They need to get
enough funding for it, and the Dean argues that part of the money should come from
increased tuitions. The Board of the university disagrees, as you are a public school, and
you should keep the cost of education at an affordable level for every strata of society. The Dean argues that getting your Business degree is still a far superior investment than any financial asset. For this, he asks you to estimate the return on getting the degree, and present your findings to the Board of the University to support his argument with data.
1. What is your LHS variable and variable of interest on the RHS? (2 pts)
2. Think about the economic model. What are the determinants of (your future) wage?(Give me 5 factors at least for 5 pts)
3.You are expecting data on randomly selected individuals that includes their wage,
education level, gender and some more socio-economic characteristics. However, you are provided only with a limited number of variables for now. First, they give you wage (monthly, $), education level (years) and age (years) of the person, but they are nice enough to only give information about the group of people who work in business. Write down a standard linear model WITH ALL ITS ASSUMPTIONS for his particular application, using the variables given above. What factors are included in the unobservables according to your economic intuition (in b))? (10 pts)
4.Do you believe the exogeneity assumption of the linear model? Write down why (you do or do not believe it) in this particular example. (5 pts)
