Answer:

beta of portfolio is 1.55

Explanation:

First we calculate the Equity Risk Premium, given as:

Equity Risk Premium = Market Return - Risk Free Rate

= 11 - 6 = 5%

 Given that;

Risk Free Rate = 6%

 Return on Stock = 13.75%

 Second, we calculate the Return on Stock

Return on stock = Risk-free rate + Equity risk premium * Beta for stock

13.75 = 6 +5 *Beta

Beta = 1.55

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

$117,800

Explanation:

GDP formula is:

GDP= Consumption (C)+ Investment (I)+ Government expenditure ()+ Net exports (exports-imports)

Last year, C= $69,000 and it increased 10% (100%+10%=110%),  

This year: C= $69,000*1.10= $75,900.

Last year: I= $18,000 and it decreased 5% (100%-5%=95%).

This year: I= $18,000*0,95= $17,100

Last year: G=$19,000 and it increased by 20% (100%+20%=120%)

This year: G= $ 19,000*1.20=$22,800

Last year: X-M= $2000 and it remained the same

This year: X-M= $2000

Current year´s GDP= $75,900+$17,100+$22,800+$2000= $117,800

The cost for a carton of milk is $3, and it is sold for $5. When the milk expires, it is thrown out. You also know that the mean
svetlana [45]

Answer:

a) $3

b) $2

c) 1449

Explanation:

Given:

The cost for a carton of milk = $3

Selling price for a carton of milk = $5

Salvage value = $0        [since When the milk expires, it is thrown out ]3

Mean of historical monthly demand = 1,500

Standard deviation = 200

Now,

a) cost of overstocking = Cost  for a carton of milk - Salvage value

= $3 - $0

= $3

cost of under-stocking = Selling price - cost for a carton of milk

= $5 - $3

= $2

b)  critical ratio = \frac{\textup{cost of under-stocking }}{\textup{cost of overstocking + cost of under-stocking }}

or

critical ratio = \frac{\textup{2}}{\textup{3 + 2}}

or

critical ratio = 0.4

c) optimal quantity of milk cartons = Mean + ( z × standard deviation )

here, z is the z-score for the critical ration of 0.4

we know

z-score(0.4) = -0.253

thus,

optimal quantity of milk cartons = 1,500 + ( -0.253 × 200 )

= 1500 - 50.6

= 1449.4 ≈ 1449 units

The first thing required in such case is to first analyze the existing resources available to them to begin the production process. One factor to be considered is water availability. Do they have the available amount of water for irrigation purposes or for other purposes in the production process. Do they have available land area that can feed a growing population.
