Answer: high beta stocks in a rising market and low beta stocks in a declining market
Explanation:
Beta is a measure of a Stock's market risk and checks the relationship between the stock in question and the market. A higher risk also means a higher reward.
A beta of 1 signifies that the stock is moving with the market and a beta of higher than 1 signifies that it is more volatile than the market.
Investing in high beta stocks when the market is rising therefore gives more returns and is the prudent Investment strategy to follow because they will outperform the market.
However, when the market is falling, high beta stocks will give more losses because they will outperform the market. It is better to use low stock betas therefore, when the market is falling.
In order to properly tackle this problem, we must understand the relationship between the nominal annual rate and real (effective) annual rate.
To do this:
-First you take the nominal rate, divide by the number of times it's compounded (converted) per year.
-Then, add one to that number, and raise that number to the power of how many times you compound per year.
Here is the method in practice:
First 3 Years:
Nominal rate= 2% ÷ 12 times/yr = 0.001667
Effective rate = 1.001667 ^12 = 1.020184
Next 2 Years (Discounting)
3% ÷ 2/yr = .015
1.015 ^ 2 = 1.061364
Next 4 years (Interest)
.042 ÷ .5 (once every 2 years) = .084
1.084 ^ (1/2) = 1.041153
The last 3 years are already expressed as an effective rate, so we don't need to convert them. The annual rate is:
1.058
I kept the 1 in the numbers (1.058 instead of 5.8% for example) so that it's easier to find the final number
Take every relevant number and raise it to the power of the number of years it's compounded for. For discounting, raise it to a negative power.
First 3 years: 1.020184 ^ 3 = 1.061784
Next 2 years: 1.030225 ^ -2 = .942184
Next 4 years: 1.041163 ^ 4 = 1.175056
Last 3 years: 1.058 ^ -3 = .84439
Multiply these numbers (include all decimals when you do this calculation)
1.062 * .942 * 1.175 * .844 = .992598
This is our final multiplier to find the effect on our principal:
.992598 * 2,480 = 2461.64
Answer is 2461.64
Answer:
p=mv
Explanation:
the formula for momentum is
p=mv
Answer:
$25
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what is current value of the stock today
Using this formula
P0= Div1/(r - g)
Let plug in the formula
P0= (3/(0.18 - 0.06))
P0= $25
Therefore current value of the stock today is $25
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the predetermined overhead rate in the following cases are shown below:
As we know that
Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated overhead ÷ activity level
1.
= $203,000 ÷ 58,000
= $3.50 per direct labor hour
2.
= $203,000 ÷ $1,015,000
= $0.20 per direct labor dollar
3.
= $203,000 ÷ 14,500
= $14.00 per machine hour
