Answer: The price for bacon will increase.

Explanation:

If the cost of production or any factor of production such as labor, raw materials, equipment increases, the quantity that producers are willing to supply at a given price decreases and this will increase the price of finished products. From the question, The price of Bacon will skyrocket since the price of feeds used to feed the pigs are increased.

Because if the cost of production increase, prices will increase as well because the producers are spending more money to make that product.

They are spending more money than they usually do to feed the pigs, this will make them sell the pigs at a higher price and when those that makes bacons purchase at this high price, they will at a higher rate than they used to, to consumers.

Waterway industries, has 4700 shares of 5%, $50 par value, cumulative preferred stock and 100000 shares of $1 par value common s
e-lub [12.9K]

Since the preferred stocks are cumulative in nature, the dividend amount not paid in the current year will be accumulated and paid in the next year.

Preferred dividend to be paid in 2017 = Value of preferred stock x Dividend rate

= (4700 x $50) x 5%

= 11750

Dividend to be paid in 2018 = same as 2017 as no new preferred stock issued

= 11750

Total dividend to be paid in 2018 = Dividend to be paid in 2018 + Dividend to be paid in 2017 – Dividend paid in 2017

= 11750 +11750 -7900

= $15600

love history [14]

Answer:

6.75%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Beta of the stock = 1.12

Expected return = 10.8% = 0.108

Return of risk free asset = 2.7% = 0.027

Now,

Since it is equally invested in two assets

Therefore,

both will have equal weight = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5

Thus,

Expected return on a portfolio = ∑(Weight × Return)

= [ 0.5 × 10.8% ] + [ 0.5 × 2.7% ]

= 5.4% + 1.35%

= 6.75%
