Answer:

The risk premium appropriate for this security is 4%.

Explanation:

The returns vary by only half as much as the market index which means that the security half as risky as the market.

The risk-premium for the security should be half of the market risk premium.

Market risk premium is calculated by = Expected return on the market - Risk free rate

Market risk premium = 13% - 5% = 8%

The risk premium on the security would be 8% / 2 = 4%

katrin [286]

Answer: $17,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Budgeted beginning cash balance = $16,000

Budgeted cash receipts total = $188,000

Budgeted cash disbursements total = $187,000

Desired ending cash balance = $40,000

The excess (deficiency) of cash available over disbursements for June will be:

= Beginning cash balance + Cash receipts - Cash disbursements

= $16,000 + $188,000 - $187,000

= $17,000

Lusk company produces and sells 15,900 units of product a each month. the selling price of product a is $29 per unit, and variab
Shkiper50 [21]
<span>Decrease by $57,400 per month. Looks look at the cash flow for continuing to produce product a and discontinuing product a. Continuing to produce Income = 15900 * $29 = $461,100 Variable Expenses = 15900 * 23 = $365,700 Fixed overhead = $109,000 Total cash flow = $461,100 - $365,700 - $109,000 = -$13,600 So the Lusk company is losing $13,600 per month while producing product a. Let's see what happens if they stop producing it. Income = $0 Variable Expenses = $0 Fixed overhead = $71,000 Total cash flow = $0 - $71,000 = -$71,000 So if they stop producing it, their fixed overhead decreases, but is still at $71,000 per month, for a total loss per month of $71,000. The conclusion is to either lose $13,600 per month, or $71,000 per month. So if they stop production of product a, their loss per month will increase by $57,400.</span>

Offer. Ball writes to Sullivan and inquires how much Sullivan is asking for a specific forty-acre tract of land Sullivan owns. B
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Ball can certainly hold Sullivan to a contract for sale of the land.  Sullivan in his reply to Ball's enquiry offered to sell the forty-acre tract of land at $60,000 and nothing less.  Ball accepted this offer by Sullivan by stating his acceptance.

These exchanges of offer and acceptance meet the terms of a valid contract.  Therefore, Ball can always hold Sullivan for contract enforcement.

Explanation:

In making a valid contract, offer and acceptance are key ingredients, with specific consideration.  Since the two parties, Ball and Sullivan are agreed on the consideration and have exchanged offer and acceptance, the validity of the contract is enhanced thereupon.
