Suppose that borrowing is restricted so that the zero-beta version of the CAPM holds. The expected return on the market portfoli

raketka [301]

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

As a manager, you have been asked to work with your employees to develop goals. What can you expect from this process? Check all

laiz [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

o A benefit of goals is that they help motivate employees.

o One of the drawbacks of plans is that they can create a false sense of security.

Explanation:

As a manager, working with employees to set goals is a great activity to motivate employees. But setting goals with employees has a disadvantage that they may create a false sense of security they may feel that everything is just taken for granted and is therefore considered as a disadvantage. Plans can be flexible to the changing environment.

A company allowed its employees to take a half hour lunch break. However, the break was uncompensated, and the employees were no

hoa [83]

Answer:

FLSA rules establish that only short coffee breaks (between 5 to 20 minutes) should be compensated as work time. Meal periods that last at least 30 minutes are not compensable work time.

If maintenance workers are recalled earlier, that time counts as work time because they are performing their normal work tasks.

siniylev [52]

Answer:

Tuff Wheels

The net present value of the project is:

= $13,617,154

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Development cost $ 1,250,000

Estimated development time 9 months

Pilot testing $ 200,000

Ramp-up cost $ 400,000

Total Project cost in Year 0 = $1,850,000 ($ 1,250,000 + $200,000 + $400,000)

Marketing and support cost $ 150,000 per year

Sales and production volume 60,000 per year

Unit production cost $ 100

Unit price $ 205

Contribution per unit = $105 ($205 - $100)

Total contribution margin = $6,300,000 ($105 * 60,000)

Marketing and support cost $ 150,000

Interest rate 8% 148,000

Net income (cash flow) $6,002,000

Discount rate = 8%

Annual net cash inflow = $6,002,000

Annuity factor = 2.577

Total cash inflow = $15,467,154 ($6,002,000 * 2.577)

Total project cost 1,850,000

Net present value $13,617,154

Dexter Industries purchased packaging equipment on January 8 for $116,600. The equipment was expected to have a useful life of t

Luden [163]

Answer:

Straight-line method: $36,667 yearly depreciation expense for 3 years.
Unit-of-production method: Year 1 - $47,850, Year 2 - $40,590, Year 3 - $21,560
Double-declining method: Year 1 - $77,737, Year 2 - $25,910, Year 3 - $6,353

Total for 3 years is $110,000 for all the depreciation methods.

Explanation:

(A) Under straight-line method, depreciation expense is (cost - residual value) / Estimated useful life = ($116,600 - $6,600) / 3 years = $36,667 yearly depreciation expense.

Accumulated depreciation for 3 years is $36,667 x 3 years is $110,000.

(B) The unit-of-production method is used when the asset value closely relates to the units of output it is able to produce. It is expressed with the formula below:

(Original Cost - Salvage value) / Estimated production capacity x Units/year

At Year 1, depreciation expense (DE) is: ($116,600 - $6,600) / 20,000 operating hours x 8,700 hours = $47,850

At Year 2, depreciation expense (DE) is: ($116,600 - $6,600) / 20,000 operating hours x 7,380 hours = $40,590

At Year 3, depreciation expense (DE) is: ($116,600 - $6,600) / 20,000 operating hours x 3,920 hours = $21,560

Accumulated depreciation for 3 years is $47,850 +$40,590 + $21,560 = $110,000.

Note that this depreciation method results in higher depreciation charge when the asset is heavily used, at this time, it was in Year 1.

(C) The double-declining method is otherwise known as the reducing balance method and is given by the formula below:

Double declining method = 2 X SLDP X BV

SLDP = straight-line depreciation percentage

BV = Book value

SLDP is 100%/3 years = 33.33%, then 33.33% multiplied by 2 to give 66.67% or 2/3

At Year 1, 66.67% X $116,600 = $77,737

At Year 2, 66.67% X $38,863 ($116,600 - $77,737) = $25,910

At Year 3, 66.67% X $12,953 ($38,863 - $25,910) = $8,636. This depreciation will decrease the book value of the asset below its salvage value $12,953 - $8,636 = $4,317 < $6,600. Depreciation will only be allowed up to the point where the book value = salvage value. Consequently the depreciation for Year 3 will be $6,353.

Accumulated depreciation for 3 years is $77,737 + $25,910 + $6,353 = $110,000.
