A stock has an expected return of 13.5 percent, its beta is 1.40, and the expected return on the market is 11.5 percent. What mu
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The risk free rate is 6.50%

Explanation:

The required rate of return is the minimum return that investors demand/expect on a stock based on the systematic risk of the stock as given by the beta. The expected or required rate of return on a stock can be calculated using the CAPM equation.

The equation is,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • rM is the return on market

As we know the figures for r, Beta and rM, we will input these figures in the equation to calculate risk free rate.

Let risk free rate be x.

0.135 = x + 1.4 * (0.115 - x)

0.135 = x + 0.161 - 1.4x

0.135 - 0.161  =  x - 1.4x

-0.026  =  -0.4x

-0.026 / -0.4 = x

x =  0.065 or 6.50%

r = 0.1475 or 14.75%

Bricktown Exchange purchases a copyright for $50,000. The copyright has a remaining legal life of 25 years, but only an expected
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Correct option is (D)

Explanation:

Given:

Purchase price of copyright = $50,000

Expected useful life = 5 years

Annual depreciation expense as per straight line method:

= Purchase price ÷ useful life

= 50,000 ÷ 5

= $10,000

Only useful life is considered and not legal life.

Carrying value of asset at the end of year = Book value of asset - annual depreciation

Carrying value of copyright at then end of first year = 50,000 - 10,000 = $40,000

Carrying value of copyright at then end of second year = 40,000 - 10,000 = $30,000
