A stock with a beta equal to −1.0 has zero systematic (or market) risk. a. True b. False

Business

Advocard [28]3 years ago

The statement above is FALSE.
A stock with a beta equal to -1 does not have zero systematic risk. 
Systematic risk refers to the uncertainty that is inherent to the entire stock market segment; it is made up majorly of the daily fluctuations in the price of stocks. Beta is the measure of the systematic risk of a stock in comparison to the market as a whole. Beta is also used to compare a stock market risk to that of other stocks.
 A stock with a beta value of -1 indicates that the stock price will be less volatile than the market. A stock with a beta value of 1 indicates that the stock price will move with the market.

A firm in a perfectly competitive market has a fixed cost of $1,000 and a variable cost of $500 while it is earning the revenue
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Firm should not shut down, as it is able to cover its Average Variable Cost

Explanation:

Perfect Competition firms in Short Run : The firms produce even if their average revenue (price) < their average total costs (AC). They continue production until Average variable cost (AVC) ≥ per unit price (P) i.e average revenue (AR). This is called Shut Down Point. P lower beyond AVC implies that firm won't continue even in short run.

Given : Variable Cost (VC) = 500 ; Revenue (R) = 510

Average Variable Costs & Average Revenue are variable costs & revenue, per unit quantity. AVC = VC / Q ; AR (P) = R / Q

R i.e 510 > VC i.e 500

So, R/ Q i.e AR is also > VC / Q i.e AVC

Since AVC > AR (P), firm should not shut down

Identify cash equivalents from the listed items. (You may select more than one answer. Single click the box with the question ma
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

These two are cash equivalents:

Money market funds

Three-month Treasury bills

Because they represent short-term investments that a company makes with the goal of getting rid of any excess cash that would otherwise be left unused while it is losing value because of inflation.

In other words, the main goal of investments in money market funds and three-month treasury bills, is to prevent cash from losing value due to inflation, and because of that, those investments are considered cash equivalents.
