Answer:
9.2%
Explanation:
expected return of the investment = potential return x chance of each return happening
Expected return of the investment:
- 20% chance of occurring x 30% potential return = 0.2 x 30% = 6%
- 50% chance of occurring x 10% potential return = 0.5 x 10% = 5%
- 30% chance of occurring x -6% potential return = 0.3 x -6% = -1.8%
- total expected return = 9.2%

Answer:
10.4%
Explanation:
The computation of expected return on a portfolio is shown below:-
Expected return = Risk Free return + 5%Beta ( Market Return - Risk Free return)
= 5% + 0.60 × (17% - 8%)
= 5% + 5.4%
= 10.4%
Therefore for computing the expected return on a portfolio with a beta of .6 we simply applied the above formula.
The market return less risk free return is known as market risk premium
Answer:
increased
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Price of a gallon of gasoline in 1972 = $0.35
CPI in 1972 = 0.418
Price of a gallon of gasoline in 2005 = $2.25
CPI in 2005 = 1.68
Now,
Real cost in 1972 = [ Nominal cost in 1972 ] ÷ [ CPI in 1972 ]
= $0.35 ÷ 0.418
= $0.837
Real cost in 2005 = [ Nominal cost in 2005 ] ÷ [ CPI in 2005 ]
= $2.25 ÷ 1.68
= $1.34
Hence,
The price of gallon of gasoline increased between 1972 and 2005
