Answer:
a. 5.40%
Explanation:
First, I will calculate the new cost of equity for both stock X and Y:
Required rate of return = risk free rate + (beta x market premium)
Re stock X = 8% + (1.6 x 6%) = 8% + 9.6% = 17.6%
Re stock Y = 8% + (0.7 x 6%) = 8% + 4.2% = 12.2%
The difference between the required rate of return = 17.6% - 12.2% = 5.4%
Answer:
decrease, upward
Explanation:
When Italian interest rates increase, their demand in Italy would increase, hence a downward pressure on the supply of the same would be required. as the demand of the currency in italy increases, its value also increases. hence there is an upward pressure on the value of the pound against the u.s. dollar.

Answer:
patent 301,350 debit
cash 301,350 credit
franchise 633,600 debit
cash 633,600 credit
development expense 189,000 debit
cash 189,000 credit
year-end adjustment:
amortization expense 50,225 debit
patent 50,225 credit
amortization expense 31,680 debit
patent 31,680 credit
Explanation:
The patent and franchise will be activate as there is a certain possibility to produce positive cashflow in the future.
They will be adjusted at year-end for amortization:
301,350 / 6 = 50,225 amortization on patent
633,600 / 10 = 63,360 amortization on franchise
As it was concede on July 1st then, we will do half-year
63,360 / 2 = 31,680
The development cost will be treated as expense as there is no precise information that can determined the development cost which yield a positive outcome.
Answer:
Probability, P(n) = 3/8
Explanation: Let standard delivery be S and express delivery be E.
I) When the parcels were sent:
S(n) = 75/100 and E(n) = 25/100
II) When the parcels arrived:
S(n)← = 80/100 and E(n)← = 95/100
The probability a record of a parcel delivery is chosen, P(n) = S(n)*E(n) + E(n)*S(n) = 75/100*25/100 + 25/100*75/100
P(n) = 3/16 + 3/16 = 6/16
∴ P(n) = 3/8
