Answer:

The expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 14%.

Explanation:

The expected rate of return on the market portfolio can be calculated using the following capital asset pricing model (CAPM) formula:

Er = Rf + B[E(Rm) - Rf] ...................... (1)

Where:

Er = Expected rate of return on the market portfolio = ?

Rf = Risk-free rate = 5%

B = Beta = 1

E(Rm) = Market expected rate of return = 14%

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Er = 5 + 1[14 - 5]

Er = 5 + 1[9]

Er = 5 + 9

Er = 14%

Therefore, the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 14%.

True [87]

Answer:

Explanation:

We have been provided the cost of each activity and their respective drivers.

There are three activities

Supervision of Direct Labor = $304,000 for 760,000 labor hours

Machine Maintenance = $153,600 for 960,000 hours

Facility rent = $165,000 for 110,000 square feet

Supervision of Direct Labor = $304,000/760,000 X 260 labor hours = $104

Machine Maintenance = $153,600/960,000 X 1,500 = $240

Facility Rent = $165,000/110,000 X 70 = $105
