- Bhavika Investments, a group of financial advisors and retirement planners, is providing advice on how to invest $200,000 for one of its clients in the stock market and in money market funds. Each dollar invested in the stock market gives a return of 10% and each dollar invested in money market funds gives a return of 5%. However, there is risk involved: the risk measure for each dollar invested in the stock market is 12, and the risk measure for each dollar invested in the money market is 5. The table below summarizes the information just presented. Risk measure per investment dollar Percentage return per investment dollar Stock Market 12 10% Money market 5 5% The client has stipulated an annual return of at least $14,000 on his investments in the stock market and money market.

The data in the table (below) summarize the depreciation methods used by a sample of 78 French, German, and U.K. firms. Depreciation Methods France Germany UK Total A. Straight line (S) 15 0 25 40 B.

While features differ from site to site, crowd-funding sites are websites that allow you to set up an online fundraising campaign based around a fundraising page, and accept money directly from that page using the website's own credit card processor. A certain crowd-funding website reported that 132 of 358 technology crowd-funding projects were successfully launched in the past year and 353 of 889 film and video crowd-funding projects were successfully launched in the past year.
