Answer:

A. 1.30

Explanation:

In order to find portfolio beta we will multiply each individual stock's beta with its weight in the portfolio. Stock X has a weight of 75%(75,000/100,000) and a Beta of 1.5. Stock Y has a weight of 25%(25,000/100,000) and a Beta of 0.7.

Portfolio Beta = (1.5*0.75)+(0.70*0.25)=1.3

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Total Unit Cost=  $ 96.65

Explanation:

Bob Clarke Corporation

Activities           Estimated Overhead Cost       Expected Activity

Assembly                     $1,005,040                 68,000 machine-hours

Processing orders       $102,500                       2,000 orders

Inspection                    $139,840                    1,900 inspection-hours

<u><em>First we find the overhead rates using ABC costing method.</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Overhead Rates=  Estimated Overhead Cost/ Expected Activity

Assembly Rate=   $1,005,040 /68,000 = $ 14.78 per machine-hours

Processing rate= $102,500 / 2,000= $ 51.25 per orders

Inspection Rate=  $139,840/ 1,900=  $ 73.6 per inspection-hours

<u><em>Then we find the overhead costs applying the ABC Costing rates</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Overhead Costs Of 450 Hockey

Assembly= 710 machine-hours, * $ 14.78= $10493.8

Processing=42 orders, *$ 51.25= $ 2152.5

Inspection= 12 inspection-hours*$ 73.6 = $ 883.2

Total Overhead Costs of 450 Hockey = $ 13529.5

Overhead Cost of One Hockey= 13529.5/450= 30.065=  $ 30.07

Then the:

Product Cost

Direct materials cost is $36.42 per hockey stick

Direct labor cost is $30.16 per hockey stick

Overhead Costs is $ 30.07

Total Unit Cost=  $ 96.65
