Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Dividend, D0 =$1.20

Price, P0 = $50.00

Growth rate, g = 6% (constant)

Based on the DCF approach, then

Cost of Equity:

= [D0 × (1 + g) ÷ P0] + g

= [(1.20 × (1 + 0.06)) ÷ 50] + 0.06

= (1.272 ÷ 50) + 0.06

= 0.02544 + 0.06

= 0.08544 or 8.54%

Hence, the cost of equity from retained earnings is 8.54%.

You manage a risky portfolio with an expected rate of return of 17% and a standard deviation of 29%. The T-bill rate is 8%. Your
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

13.85% and 18.9%

Explanation:

As in this exercise we have a free risk asset we will assume that the t-bill has a standard deviation of 0%, so let´s firts calculate the expected return:

E(r)=r_{1}*w_{1} +r_{2}*w_{2} +....+r_{n}*w_{n}

where E(r) is the expected return, r_{i} is the return of the i asset and w_{i} is the investment in i asset, so applying to this particular case we have:

E(r)=17\%*65\%+8\%*35\%

E(r)=13.85\%

the calculation of standar deviation follows the same logic of the previous formula:

Sigma(r)=29\%*65\%+0\%*35\%

Sigma(r)=18.9\%

The auditors of Dunbar Electronics want to limit the risk of material misstatement in the valuation of inventories to 8 percent.
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

a. Briefly discuss what is meant by audit risk, inherent risk and control risk.

Audit risk is the risk that the auditor expresses an inappropriate audit opinion when the financial statements are materially misstated.

Audit Risk = Inherent Risk x Control Risk x Detection Risk

Auditors will want their overall audit risk to be at an acceptable level. Inappropriate opinion will result in damages / costs  

Inherent risk is the susceptibility of an assertion to a misstatement that could be material individually or when aggregated with other misstatements, assuming there were no related internal controls.

Control risk is the risk that a material misstatement, that could occur in an assertion and that could be material will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis by the entity's internal control.

b. What level of detection risk is implicit in this problem?

Detection risk is the risk that the procedures performed by the auditor to reduce audit risk to an acceptably low level will not detect a misstatement

In this case the detection risk given is 0.41.
