Answer:

The Sharpe ratios for the market portfolio and portfolio A is 0.1677 and 0.2 respectively

Explanation:

The computation of the Sharpe ratio is shown below:

= (Expected Rate of Return - Risk-free rate of return) ÷ (Standard Deviation)

For Market portfolio, it would be

= (12.2% - 7%) ÷ (31%)

= 5.2% ÷ 31%

= 0.1677

For portfolio A, it would be

= (11% - 7%) ÷ (20%)

= 4% ÷ 20%

= 0.20

Simply we apply the Sharpe ratio formula in which the risk-free rate of return is deducted from the expected return and the same is divided by the Standard Deviation

Which of the following statements is TRUE of payback​ period? A. If the payback period is greater than the maximum acceptable pa
Firdavs [7]

Answer:B. If the payback period is less than the maximum acceptable payback​ period, accept the project.

Explanation:

The payback period measures if a capital investment is profitable.

The payback period measures how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a capital project. It calculates how long it takes for the cash flows generated from a capital project to be equal to the cost.

For example if a project costs $10,000. It cash flows in year 1,2,3 and 4 are $5000, $3000, $2000, $6000. The payback period is 3 years. If the company has a maximum acceptable payback period of 2 years, then the company won't take on the project because its payback period is more than the maximum acceptable payback period.

If the company has a maximum acceptable payback period of 4 years, then the company would take on the project because its payback period is less than the maximum acceptable payback period.

On January 1, Parson Freight Company issues 7%, 10-year bonds with a par value of $2,000,000. The bonds pay interest semiannuall
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The correct option is Debit Cash $1,864,097; debit Discount on Bonds Payable $135,903; credit Bonds Payable $2,000,000.

Explanation:

This question is an instance of bonds issued at a discount. This happens when a bond is issued below the face value of the bond and also happens when the coupon rate on the bond payable is less than the market rate.

The face value of the bond payable is $2,000,000 while the market value is $1,864,097, so there is a discount of $2,000,000 - $1,864,097 = $135,903 on the bond payable, which is to be amortized over the life of the bond payable.

So, the appropriate journals to record this transaction is as provided above.

Hi-Tek is a young start-up company. No dividends will be paid on the stock over the next 9 years, because the firm needs to plow
Elza [17]

Answer:

The price of the stock today is $16.83

Explanation:

The current price per share can be estimated using constant growth model of  the DDM. The price per share can be calculated using the following formula,

P0 = D1 / r - g

To calculate the price today, we use the dividend expected for the next period. Thus, using the dividend that will be paid at t=11 or D11, we can calculate the price of the stock at t=10. We further need to discount this price using the required rate of return for 10 years to calculate the price of the stock today.

P10 = 6 * (1+0.04)  /  (0.14 - 0.04)

P10 = $62.4

The price of the stock today will be,

P0 = 62.4 / (1.14)^10

P0 = $16.83

John and Joan are married and want to make cash gifts to their children (2), their children's spouses (2), and their grandchildr
IgorLugansk [536]

The answer is $0.00 (third option).

Explanation:

During the year of 2018, the annual exclusion of both federal and state tax to cash gifts was up to $15,000 per individual. <em>Annual exclusion</em> means that there's up to a certain amount of money that can be gifted without being taxable. In this case, John and Joan's cash gift falls within the limit.

When couples gift money to their family members, the limit is precisely $15,000 per relative, individually; meaning the can gift up to a total of $60,000 without being subject to gift tax.
