A stock has an expected return of 13. 24 percent, the risk-free rate is 4. 4 percent, and the market risk premium is 8. 98 percent. 0.75 is the stock's beta.

Calculate the beta for stock using the CAPM approach as follows:

Cost of common stock = Risk-free rate + Beta × Market risk premium

13% 7% + Beta x8%

13% 7% Beta × 8%

6% = Beta x8%

6% 8% Beta = =

=0.75

Therefore, the beta for stock using the CAPM approach is 0.75.

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer: Capital rationing

Explanation:

Capital Rationing occurs when a firm has to ration capital because there's no enough fund to invest in all the attractive projects.

Capital rationing is used by companies in order to limit the number of projects which they'll invest in at a time.

Since Serena has to rank several alternatives for purchasing a new piece of equipment based on the fact that there is constraint with regards to the availability of funds, this is capital rationing.

A company issues $15,000,000, 7.8%, 20-year bonds to yield 8% on January 1, 2019. Interest is paid on June 30 and December 31. T
shutvik [7]

Answer:

$14,747,642

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Issued amount = $15,000,000

Coupon rate = 7.8%

Time period = 20 years

Yield to maturity is 8%

So for computing the carrying value of the bonds

First we have to compute the discount amortization for 3 years which is shown below:

= ($15,000,000 - $14,703,108) ÷ 20 years × 3 years

= $44,533.80

So, the carrying value of the bonds

= $14,703,108 + $44,533.80

= $14,747,642

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

=$11,439.96(Approx)

Explanation:

Consider the following calculations

Present value of annuity=Annuity[1-(1+interest rate)^-time period]/rate

200,000=Annuity[1-(1.0391)^-30]/0.0391

200,000=Annuity*17.48257135

Annuity=200,000/17.48257135

=$11,439.96(Approx)
