Answer:

The risk-premium for investing in the manager's preferred stock selection is 10%

Explanation:

Risk-premium is the excess of return on manager's preferred stock selection over the risk-free rate. Risk-free rate is the rate of return on treasury stocks, which is 5%. Thus, the excess return is 15% minus 5%, which equals 10%.

Answer:

Risk Premium is 10%

Explanation:

Government treasuries represent risk free rate of return.

[tex]Risk Premium=R_{m}-R_{f}/tex] ,

where, [tex]R_{f} = Risk\ Free\ Rate\ Of\ Return/[tex]

           [tex]R_{m} = Market\ Rate\ Of\ Return/[tex]

           Risk Premium = 15 - 5 = 10%

Risk Premium is defined as return earned on market portfolio in excess of rate of return earned on risk free assets such as government treasury bonds.

So, Risk Premium refers to the compensation an investor expects to earn for assuming higher risk by investing in market portfolio instead of investing his money in risk free class of assets.

15 Total                                 $525,000.00       $120.00

Selling price per unit = $160

Sales volume = 27,000 units

Sales revenue = $4,320,000 ($160 * 27,000)

Variable production cost = $106 per unit

Total variable production costs = $2,862,000 ($106 * 27,000)

Fixed production cost =                     200,000

Total production cost =                $3,062,000

Total fixed costs:

Production costs = $200,000

Selling and admin = 325,000

Total fixed costs = $525,000

Break-even point = Fixed costs/Contribution margin per unit

= $525,000/$40 = 13,125

Break-even point in dollars = $525,000/25% = $2,100,000

____________the market school aruges that forward exchange rates do the best possible job for forecasting future spot exchange r
rjkz [21]

Answer:

Efficient market school.

Explanation:

Efficient market school is the market school which argues that forward exchange rates do the best possible job for forecasting future spot exchange rates, so investing in exchange rate forecasting services would be a waste of time because it is impossible to have a consistent alpha generation on a risk adjusted excess returns basis as market prices are only affected by new informations.

The efficient market school also known as the efficient market hypothesis (EMH) is a hypothesis that states that asset (share) prices reflect all information and it is very much impossible to consistently beat the market.

Also, forward exchange rates are exchange rates controlling foreign exchange transactions at a specific future date or time.

<em>Hence, according to the efficient market school it would be a waste of time investing in exchange rate forecasting services because all the information about an asset or security is already factored into their prices and as a result of the randomness of the market. </em>

If mega corp. borrows $9,000 and agrees to pay the lender $10,500 in one year, the annual interest rate on this loan is approxim
kap26 [50]
In simple interest, the interest rate is
i=(10500-9000)/9000=16.67%

In compound interest, compounded monthly,
10500=9000(1+i/12)^12
=>
APR=12(10500/9000)^(1/12)-1
=11.155%
(effective interest is still 16.67%)
