The actual liberalizing power of GATS and its weak legal effect in the member states are contingent on specific commitments that grant market access and/ or national treatment for a certain service. How does this relate to the fact that economic integration in the emerging services sectors is lagging behind the global needs of corporate supply chains?

There are only two possible states of the economy. State 1 has a 49% chance of occurring. In State 1, Asset A returns 8.75% and Asset B returns 11.75%. In State 2, Asset A returns -4.50% and Asset B returns -7.50%. A portfolio of just these two assets is invested 61% in Asset A (with Asset B comprising the remainder without any negative weights). What is the standard deviation of the portfolio's

In State 2, Asset A returns -4.20% and Asset B returns -7.20%. A portfolio of just these two assets is invested 55% in Asset A (with Asset B comprising the remainder without any negative weights). What is the standard deviation of the portfolio's returns?

What is the standard deviation of the portfolio's returns?

Consider the structures that are referred to as ‘ketone bodies’. A. What metabolic states can lead to their formation? B. What organ absolutely requires these structures as an energy source? And why? C. Outline their syntheses starting from acetylCoA. D. The formation of excess levels of ketone bodies (ketosis) is a bad thing for the organism? Why exactly? E. When a person is experiencing ketosis, it is sometimes mistaken for excess alcohol consumption. Why? There are 2 distinct reasons why this mistake may be made. What are they?

   Below are the average starting teacher salaries for the 50 states in the US along with District of Columbia and Federal Education Association for year 2016-2017.

Construct a histogram. Label the horizontal axis and give histogram a heading. Describe

the shape of the distribution for your histogram.

Many states assess the skills of their students in various grades. One program that is available for this purpose is the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). We assumed that the NAEP U.S. history scores for twelfth-grade students are approximately Normal with the reported mean and standard deviation, N(295 , 33 ). For the twelfth-grade U.S. history scores, the following percentiles are reported:

Let's check that assumption. In addition to means and standard deviations, you can find selected percentiles for the NAEP assessments.

Use these percentiles to assess whether or not the NAEP U.S. history scores for twelfth-grade students are approximately Normal.

Use software to compute ( ±±0.01) the scores with N(295 , 33 ):

A small country consists of ve states, whose populations are A : 810, 000 B : 473, 000 C : 292, 000 D : 594, 000 E : 211, 000 If the legislature has 119 seats, apportion the seats using (a) Hamilton's Method (b) Jeerson's Method (c) Webster's Method (d) Huntington-Hill Method (e) Lowndes' metho

Stocks A and B have the following returns in each of the states given below.

The probability of the good state is 0.5, the probability of the bad state is 0.3 and the probability of the ugly state is 0.2. What is the covariance between the returns of A and B? (Hint: The expected return of A is 10.5% and the expected return of B is 6%) What is the covariance between the return of A and the return of a risk-free asset which has an expected return of 5%?
