Answer:

49.5%.

Explanation:

% of salary towards social security tax = (19000/200,000)*100

                                                                = 9.5%

% of savings = 15%

Yearly mortgage payments = 4333.33*12

                                              = 52000

% of mortgage payments = (52000/200,000)*100

                                          = 26%

Replacement ratio = 100% - ( 9.5% + 15% + 26%)

                               = 49.5%

Therefore, You would expect Lori's wage replacement ratio to be 49.5% at retirement.

You can spend money on things you need first instead of the things you want. Most people spend their pay on things that they want rather than getting something they need this leads to financial problems. Another way is to put at least $20 in the bank every paycheck. This way if something bad happens and you need to pay for it then you have the extra money in your bank. Daily spending can be a bad thing because you are constantly spending and never saving money, and life is full of surprises so you need to save money as well for preparation. 

Hope this helped. Have a great day!

Stock Y has a beta of 1.2 and an expected return of 14.5 percent. Stock Z has a beta of .7 and an expected return of 9.3 percent
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Reward to risk ratio = (Expected return - Risk free rate) / Beta  

Reward to risk ratio of Y = ( 0.145 - 0.056) / 1.2

Reward to risk ratio of Y = 0.089 / 1.2

Reward to risk ratio of Y = 0.0741666

Reward to risk ratio of Y = 7.42%

Reward to risk ratio of Z = (0.093 - 0.056) / 0.7

Reward to risk ratio of Z = 0.037 / 0.7

Reward to risk ratio of Z = 0.0528571

Reward to risk ratio of Z = 5.29%

Security market line (SML) reward-to-risk ratio is the market risk premium itself which is 6.6%.

Stock Y has a reward-to-risk ratio that is higher than the market risk premium, it is currently under-valued in the market. Similarly, since stock Z has a reward-to-risk ratio that is lower than the market risk premium, it is currently over-valued in the market.
