Answer:
I think it is the buddy approach method.
Explanation:
The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:
The following annual returns for Stock E are projected over the next year for three possible states of the economy. What is the stock’s expected return and standard deviation of returns? E(R) = 8.5% ; σ = 22.70%; mean = $7.50; standard deviation = $2.50
State Prob E(R)
Boom 10% 40%
Normal 60% 20%
Recession
30% - 25%
Answer:
The expected return of the stock E(R) is 8.5%.
The standard deviation of the returns is 22.7%
Explanation:
<u>Expected return</u>
The expected return of the stock can be calculated by multiplying the stock's expected return E(R) in each state of economy by the probability of that state.
The expected return E(R) = (0.4 * 0.1) + (0.2 * 0.6) + (-0.25 * 0.3)
The expected return E(R) = 0.04 + 0.12 -0.075 = 0.085 or 8.5%
<u>Standard Deviation of returns</u>
The standard deviation is a measure of total risk. It measures the volatility of the stock's expected return. The standard deviation (SD) of a stock's return can be calculated by using the following formula:
SD = √(rA - E(R))² * (pA) + (rB - E(R))² * (pB) + ... + (rN - E(R))² * (pN)
Where,
- rA, rB to rN is the return under event A, B to N.
- pA, pB to pN is the probability of these events to occur
- E(R) is the expected return of the stock
Here, the events are the state of economy.
So, SD = √(0.4 - 0.085)² * (0.1) + (0.2 - 0.085)² * (0.6) + (-0.25 - 0.085)² * (0.3)
SD = 0.22699 or 22.699% rounded off to 22.70%
Answer:
revenue falls by $167,005.08
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
When elasticity of demand is less than 1, demand is inelastic
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded.
change in percentage demanded when price falls by 11% = 11% x 0.6 = 6.6%
Quantity demanded increases by 6.6%
Increase in quantity demanded = 18,100 x 1.066 = 19,294.60
decrease in price = 0.89 x $180 = $160.20
change in total revenue
(180 x 18,100 ) - ( $160 .20 x 19,294.60)
= 3,258,000 - 3,090,994.92
=167,005.08
Answer:
Generally consists of a company's cumulative net income less any net losses and dividends declared since its inception
Explanation:
Retained earning is the balance of a company's profit that is retained after the distribution of dividend declared to it's shareholders.
A company that makes profit at the end of a reporting period usually make dividend declaration to its shareholder. The accumulation of these declarations are then taken out of the profit earned by the company. The balance when dividends declared(since it's inception) by the company is taken out from its profit, including any net losses is known as retained earning.
Answer: Debit Notes Receivable 7,800
Sales(to record sales) 7,800
Explanation:
When a customer signs a promissory note in exchange for commodity then the entry to record sales is recorded by debiting notes receivable.
here, sales = $7,800 = Debit Notes Receivable
The entry to record the sales transaction would be
Debit Notes Receivable 7,800
Sales(to record sales) 7,800
