The beta of the new investment must be 1.098.

We need to use the concept of weighted averages to solve this problem.

We find the ratios of the dollar value of existing to the total new portfolio and additional investments to the total new portfolio and find the weights.

We then find the product of the beta of the existing portfolio and its respective weight calculated in the earlier step, with the given data.

We derive the product of the additional investment and beta by subtracting the answer from the earlier step from the new portfolio's beta (1.15).

Then we work backwards to arrive at the the beta for the additional investment.

Answer:

-3.41%

Explanation:

The computation of the annual rate of return is shown below;

We use the formula:

Future value = Present value × (1 + rate of interest)^number of years  

$10,710,500 = $12,738,500 × (1 + rate of interest)^5

($10,710,500 ÷ $12,738,500)^(1 ÷ 5) = (1 + rate of interest)

(1 + rate of interest) = 0.965913622

r = (0.965913622 - 1) × 100

= -3.41%

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

$1,320.19

Explanation:

Loan amount = $225,000

Rate = 5.80%

Years = 30

PMT = ?

Initial payment = PMT(Rate/12, Years*12, -225,000)

Initial payment = PMT(5.80%/12, 360, -225,000)

Initial payment = 1320.185230439806

Initial payment = $1,320.19

Therefore, the initial payment on the loan is $1,320.19
