You are considering investing in a project with the following possible outcomes: Probability of Investment States Occurrence Ret
frutty [35]

Answer:

SD = 0.0740270 or 7.40270 percent rounded off to 7.403 percent

Explanation:

To calculate the standard deviation of the investment, we must first calculate the expected or mean return of the investment. The expected or mean return can be calculated as follows,

r = pA * rA  +  pB * rB  +  ...  +  pN * rN

Where,

  • pA, pB, ... represents the probability of state occurrence
  • rA, rB, ... represents return A, return B and so on  under each state

r = 0.2 * 0.16  +  0.4 * 0.12  +  0.2 * 0.05  +  0.2 * -0.05

r = 0.08 or 8%

The formula to calculate the standard deviation of a stock/investment is as follows,

SD = √pA * (rA - r)²  +  pB * (rB - r)²  +  ...  +  pN * (rN - r)²

SD = √0.2 * (0.16 - 0.08)²  +  0.4 * (0.12 - 0.08)²  +  0.2 * (0.05 - 0.08)²  +  0.2 * (-0.05 - 0.08)²

SD = 0.0740270 or 7.40270 percent rounded off to 7.403 percent

Suppose a tax of $4 per unit is imposed on a good, and the tax causes the equilibrium quantity of the good to decrease from 2,00
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

option (c) $600

Explanation:

Given:

Tax = $4 per unit

Initial equilibrium quantity = 2,000 units

Final equilibrium quantity = 1,700 units

Decrease in consumer surplus = $3,000

Decrease in consumer surplus = $4,400

Now,

Deadweight Loss is calculated using the formula:

Deadweight loss

= \frac{1}{2} × Tax × (Original equilibrium quantity - New equilibrium quantity)

on substituting the respective values, we get

Deadweight loss = \frac{1}{2} × 4 × (2,000 - 1,700)

or

Deadweight loss =  2 × (3)  = $600

Hence,

the correct answer is option (c) $600

Bond Yields and Rates of Return A 30-year, 10% semiannual coupon bond with a par value of $1,000 may be called in 4 years at a c
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The bond's yield to maturity is 9.45% using Excel to get exact values, and 9.59% using approximate method.

Explanation:

We can calculate is using 2 ways, using Excel to get the exact percentage or with approximate methods, calculating the semi-annual Yield to Maturity using the following formula

YTM_{sm} =\cfrac{PMT+\cfrac{FV-PV}n}{\cfrac{FV+PV}2}

And from there we can calculate the Yield to Maturity just by multiplying the semi-annual one by 2.

Identifying the given information.

We have a period of 30 years, so for the semiannual bond we have n=2(30) = 60 periods.

The face value, FV, is $1000, the coupon rate is 0.10, thus we can use them to  find the interest per period PMT.

PMT=0.10 \times \cfrac{1000}{2}\\PMT=\$ 50

The current price of the bond, PV is $1050.

Replacing the values on the semiannual Yield to Maturity

YTM_{sm} =\cfrac{PMT+\cfrac{FV-PV}n}{\cfrac{FV+PV}2}

YTM_{sm}=\cfrac{50+\cfrac{1000-1050}{60}}{\cfrac{1000+1050}{2}}

Simplifying we get

YTM_{sm}=4.797\%\\

Finding the Yield to Maturity.

We can just multiply by 2 to get the Yield to Maturity from our previous result and rounding it to 2 decimals we get

YTM = 2 YTM_{sm}\\YTM=9.59\%

Alternatively we can use Excel and write:

RATE(n, PMT, PV, FV)*2

That is

RATE(60,50,1050,1000)*2

And we will get the exact Yield to maturity 9.49%

Elizabeth Kennedy sells beauty supplies. Her annual demand for a particular skin sparkle is 17,000 units. The cost of placing an
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The minimum cost will be "$214085".

Explanation:

D = 1700 units \\\\S =  \$ 50 \\\\H=  20%\\

i) When quantity = 1-1500,  price = $ 12.50 , and holding price is $12.50 * 20 %= $2.50.

ii) When quantity = 1501 -10,000,  price = $ 12.45 , and holding price is $12.45 * 20 %= $2.49.

iii) When quantity = 10,0001- and more,  price = $ 12.40 , and holding price is $12.40 * 20 %= $2.48.

EOQ= \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H}} \\\\EOQ1= \sqrt{\frac{2\times 17000\times 50}{2.50}} \\\\EOQ1=824.62 \ \ \ or \ \ \ 825\\

EOQ2= \sqrt{\frac{2\times 17000\times 50}{2.49}} \\\\EOQ1=826.2T \ \ \ or \ \ \ 826\\

EOQ3= \sqrt{\frac{2\times 17000\times 50}{2.48}} \\\\EOQ3=827.93 \ \ \ or \ \ \ 828\\

know we should calculate the total cost of EOQ1 and break ever points (1501 to 10,000)units

total \ cost = odering \ cost + holding \ cost + \ Annual \ product \ cost\\\\total_c  = \frac{D}{Q} \times S +  \frac{Q}{2} \times H + (p \times D) \\\\T_c  = \frac{17000}{825} \times 50+  \frac{825}{2} \times 2.50 + (12.50 \times 17000)\\\\T_c = 1030 .30 +1031.25+212500\\\\T_c =$ 214561.55\\\\

T_c  = \frac{17000}{1501} \times 50+  \frac{1501}{2} \times 2.49 + (12.45 \times 17000)\\\\T_c = 566.28 +1868.74+211650\\\\T_c =$ 214085.02 \ \ \ or \ \ \  $ 214085\\\\

T_c  = \frac{17000}{10001} \times 50+  \frac{10001}{2} \times 2.48 + (12.40 \times 17000)\\\\T_c = 84.99+ 12401.24+210800\\\\T_c =$ 223286.23 \\

The total cost is less then 15001. So, optimal order quantity is 1501, that's why cost is = $214085.
