A. The incentive conflict in principal-agent relationship as it concerns venture capitalism is conflict between venture capitalists who are the principals and the managers of the business investment who are the agents.

Answer: 41.90%
Explanation:
First calculate the risk free rate:
Required return = risk free rate + beta * (Market return - risk free rate)
28.95% = rf + 1.85 * (18% - rf)
28.95% = rf + 33.3% - 1.85rf
28.95% = -0.85rf + 33.3%
0.85rf = 33.3% - 28.95%
rf = 4.35%/0.85
rf = 5.12%
New required return;
Required return = risk free rate + beta * (Market return - risk free rate)
= 5.12% + 1.85 * (25% - 5.12%)
= 41.90%

Answer:
Purchases= 17,200 pounds
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Production in units:
Month 1= 16,000 units
Month 2= 22,000 units
One pound of materials is required for each finished unit.
The inventory of materials at the end of each month should equal 20% of the following month's production needs.
Beginning inventory= 3,200 lbs.
To calculate the direct material required, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Purchases= 16,000 + 22,000*0.2 - 3,200
Purchases= 17,200 pounds
