Answer:
Alpha for A is 1.40%; Alpha for B is -0.2%.
Explanation:
First, we use the CAPM to calculate the required returns of the two portfolios A and B given the risks of the two portfolios( beta), the risk-free return rate ( T-bill rate) and the Market return rate (S&P 500) are given.
Required Return for A: Risk-free return rate + Beta for A x ( Market return rate - Risk-free return rate) = 5% + 0.7 x (13% - 5%) = 10.6%;
 Required Return for A: Risk-free return rate + Beta for B x ( Market return rate - Risk-free return rate) = 5% + 1.4 x (13% - 5%) = 16.2%;
Second, we compute the alphas for the two portfolios:
Portfolio A: Expected return of A - Required return of A = 12% - 10.6% = 1.4%;
Portfolio B: Expected return of B - Required return of B = 16% - 16.2% = -0.2%.

Answer:
Missing wordings <em>"Direct materials used $104,000, Direct labor used	177,000, Predetermined overhead rate (based on direct labor) 160 %, Goods transferred to finished goods 449,000, Cost of goods sold 461,000, Credit sales 980,000"</em>
<em />
Factory overhead = Direct Labor used * Predetermined Overhead rate
Factory overhead = 177,000 * 160%
Factory overhead = 283,200

Explanation:
Business strategy sets the overall direction for the business because it focuses on defining how a business would achieve its goals, objectives, and mission; as well as the funds and material resources required to implement or execute the business plan.
Planning is a term used to describe the process of developing the organization's objectives and translating those into courses of action.
This ultimately implies that, planning is a strategic technique used by organizations to make an aggregate plan for its manufacturing (production) process typically ahead of time, in order to have an idea of the level of goods that are to be produced and what resources are required so as to reduce the total cost of production to its barest minimum.
While implementing an affirmative action plan, an employer is expected to do all of the following;
I. Establish objectives that can be met by applying good faith efforts.
II. Make all employment decisions in a nondiscriminatory manner.
III. Ensure that hiring objectives do not establish a floor or a ceiling for employment of certain groups.
