skad [1K]

Answer: Barry must include $6,000 in gross income from discharge of indebtedness

Explanation:

Feom the question above, we are told that Barry embezzled $6,000 from his employer and that even though his employer discovered the theft, the employ did not fire him and told him that he did not have to repay the $6,000 if he attend Alcoholics Anonymous.

The gross income has to do with the sum of the wages, profits, salaries, rents, interest payments, and every other earnings, before the deductions of taxes or other deductions. Since Barry stole the money and.he.has been forgiven, the $6,000 has to be included in the gross income from discharge of indebtedness.

The risk-free rate of return is 5.5%, the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 17%, and the stock of Xyrong Corpor
Katen [24]

Answer:

1. $12.31

2. -11.96%

Explanation:

a) Calculation to determine the intrinsic value of a share of Xyrong stock

First step is to calculate the Required Return

Using this formula

Required Return = Risk-free Rate + [Beta * (Expected Market Return - Risk-free Rate)]

Let plug in the formula

Required Return= 5.5% + [2.7 * (17% - 5.5%)]

Required Return= 5.5% + 31.05% = 36.55%

Second step is to calculate g using this formula

g = ROE * (1 - Payout Ratio)

Let plug in the formula

g= 18% * (1 - 0.25)

g= 13.5%

D0 = EPS0 * Payout Ratio = $10 * 0.25 = $2.50

P0 = [D0 * (1 + g)] / [r - g]

= [$2.50 * (1 + 0.135)] / [0.3655 - 0.135]

= $2.8375 / 0.2305 = $12.31

b). Holding Period Return = [P1 + D1 - P0] / P0

= [$8 + $2.8375 - $12.31] / $12.31 = -$1.4727 / $12.31 = -0.1196, or -11.96%

You have developed the following data on three stocks: Stock A has a standard deviation of .15 and a Beta of .79. Stock B has a
blondinia [14]

Answer:

As a risk minimizer : Stock A  has the lowest standard deviation, thus, it should be chosen, if it is to be held in isolation . Also stock B  has the lowest beta, thus,it should be chosen, if it is to be held as part of a well - diversified portfolio.

The answer is A and B respectively

Explanation:

The standalone risk or standard deviation of the stocks is alleviated for a well diversified investor  . So, in that case, the relevant risk would be the market risk or the beta.

When you see in isolation, relevant risk would be the standard deviation.

Therefore, as a risk minimizer : Stock A  has the lowest standard deviation, thus, it should be chosen, if it is to be held in isolation . Also stock B  has the lowest beta, thus,it should be chosen, if it is to be held as part of a well - diversified portfolio.
