Consider the following information: State of Economy Probability of State of Economy Rate of Return if State Occurs Recession 0.21 -0.08 Normal 0.55 0.16 Boom 0.24 0.25 Required: Calculate the expected return.

13.12%

Explanation:

The computation of the expected return is shown below:

= (Expected return of the recession × weightage of recession) + (expected return of the normal economy × weightage of normal economy) + (expected return of the boom × weightage of boom)

= (-0.08 × 0.21) + (0.16 × 0.55) + (0.25 × 0.24)  

= - 0.0168 + 0.088 + 0.06

= 13.12%

the correct answer is:

it required the president to inform congress within forty-eight hours of any new troop commitment.

the war powers resolution (1973) is a federal law designed to limit the u.s. president’s ability to initiate or intensify military actions abroad without the approval of the congress.

it establishes that the president can send armed forces into action abroad only by declaration of war by congress, statutory authorization, or in case of a national emergency created by attack upon the united states, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.

it requires the president to notify congress within 48 hours of sending armed forces to military action.
