Expected return of the stock is greater than 12%.

Using formula, Risk free rate + beta (market risk rate - risk free rate)\

= 2% + 2.0 (7%-2%)

= 13.6 - 0.4* risk premium

Risk premium of a stock is greater than 12%.

A stock's total return takes into account both capital gains and losses as well as dividend income, as opposed to a stock's nominal return, which only displays its price movement. In addition to considering the actual rate of return, investors should consider their ability to withstand the risk involved with a given investment. An investment's return on investment (ROI) provides a general indication of its profitability. The return on investment (ROI) is calculated by subtracting the investment's initial cost from its final value, dividing the result by the cost of the investment, and finally multiplying the result by 100.

Note that the full question is:

If the market risk premium is 7%, the risk-free rate is 2% and the beta of a stock is 2.0, what is the expected return of the stock?

A. less than 12%.

B. 12%.

C. greater than 12%.

D. cannot be determined.

Fantom [35]

Explanation:

The cost function for this industry is given by,

TC = FC + VC*Q

TC = $250 + $50(Number of hours used)

When it is used for full 8 hours, total cost is

TC= 250 + 50(8) = 250 + 400 = $650

When it is used for 7 hours, TC is $600.

When it is used for 6 hours, TC is $550

When it is used for 5 hours, TC is $500.

When it is used for 4 hours, TC is $450.

When it is used for 3 hours, TC is $400.

When it is used for 2 hours, TC is $350.

When it is used for 1 hours, TC is $300.

When it is used for 0 hours, TC is $250.


Thus, the cost curve will look like the diagram given below.

Solution:

Working notes:  

Calculate opening work in process inventory for conversion costs as shown below:  

Opening work in process

inventory for conversion costs  =  1-  \frac{1}{5} = 2/5

= 40 %  

Calculate units started and completed in October as shown below:  

Units started and completed in July = ( Units transferred out — opening work in process inventory  

= 25, 700 units — 2,300 units = 23, 400 units  

Calculate whole ending work in process inventory in October as shown below:  

Opening work in process inventory + Whole ending work in ) = in October process inventory Received from material storeroom — Transferred to packing department  )  

= 2,300 units + 26,000 units — 25, 700 units = 2, 600 units  

Calculate ending work in process inventory for conversion costs as shown below:  

Ending work in process inventory for conversion costs  )  

(Total units for ending work in process inventory x Completed percent for conversion costs = 2, 600 units x 1 = 520 units  )  

Equivalent units for production is calculated by adding units of opening work in process inventory, transferred to finished goods in October, and units for ending work in process inventory. Therefore, an equivalents unit for production for direct materials is 26,000 units and equivalent units for production for conversion costs is 24,840 units.  

Calculate direct materials and conversion cost equivalent cost per unit for October as shown below:  

Direct material cost per unit — Total direct material costs  Equivalent units for direct materials 8429,000  — 26,000 units = $16.50 Per unit  

Conversion cost per unit — Total conversion costs  Eqtuv' aka! units for conversion $149,040 — 24,840 units  

                     = $6
