You want to invest $50,000 in a portfolio with a beta of no more than 1.4 and an expected return of 12.4%. Bay Corp. has a beta

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Assume the weight to be invested in Bay Corp is x. That means (1 - x) will be the weight for City Inc. The expression for the expected return will be;

(x * 11.2%) + ( (1 - x) * 14.8%) = 12.4%

0.112x + 0.148 - 0.148x = 0.124

-0.036x = -0.024

x = 0.67

Portfolio beta is;

= 0.67 * 1.2 + ( 1 - 0.67) * 1.8

= 1.398 so beta condition is satisfied.

Amount in Bay Corp.;

= 0.67 * 50,000

= $33,500

Amount in City Inc.;

= 50,000 - 33,500

= $16,500

The ACME manufacturing company is weighing its options to source Component X. Supplier A would cost $3000 per order plus $2.50 f

raketka [301]

Question Completion:

Since the options are not provided, it is assumed that ACME requires 2,000 units of Component X monthly. Which supplier should the company choose?

Answer:

ACME Manufacturing Company

The supplier that should be chosen is:

Supplier A.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Quantity of component X required monthly = 2,000 units

Cost of buying from supplier A = $3,000 + ($2.50 * 2,000) = $8,000

Cost of buying from supplier B = $6 * 2,000 = $12,000

Cost of buying from supplier C = $5 * 2,000 = $10,000

b) This cost decision depends on the quantity of component X required by ACME manufacturing. If the quantity were to be less than or equal to 1,100 units, another supplier other than supplier A might be preferred. Again, if there are other considerations apart from cost, supplier A might not be chosen. The implication is that the choice of a supplier for a component depend on many factors.
