Answer:

The answer is 13.84 percent

Explanation:

The formula for sustainable growth rate is:

(Return on equity(ROE) x retention rate)/1 - Return on equity(ROE) x retention rate

Retention rate = 1 - payout ratio.

So, retention rate = 1 - 0.24

= 0. 76

Return on equity(ROE)= 0.16

(0.16 x 0.76) / 1 - ( 0.16 x 0.76)

= 0.1216 / 1 - 0.1216

0.1216/0.8784

=0.1384

Expressed as a percentage:

13.84percent

DJFats Company determined that the 2019 ending inventory had been overstated by $11,200 AND that the 2019 beginning inventory wa

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

a. $103,400

Explanation:

As we know that

Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + purchases - ending inventory

And,

Gross profit = Sales revenue - cost of goods sold

Since in the question it is given that

The ending inventory and beginning inventory had been overstated by $11,200 and $6,600 respectively

Since overstatement in the initial inventory raises the cost of the goods sold and decreases by that amount the gross profit & net income

And, overstatement in ending inventory reduced cost of goods sold and raised gross profit & net income by that amount.

So for overstated ending inventory the amount should be deducted and for overstated beginning inventory the condition would be reverse

So, the correct amount is

= incorrect pretax net income + overstatement in beginning inventory - overstatement in ending inventory

= $108,000 + $6,600 - $11,200

= $103,400

Stock A has a beta of 0.7, whereas Stock B has a beta of 1.3. Portfolio P has 50% invested in both A and B. Which of the followi

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

a. The required return on Portfolio P would increase by 1%

Explanation:

Assume that in the given question, the Market risk premium is 7% while the risk free return is 5%, then according to the Capital asset pricing model(CAPM), the expected return of stock A and B will be calculated as follows:

CAPM=Risk free return+Beta(Market risk premium)

Expected Return on stock A=5%+0.70*7%=9.9%

Expected Return on stock B=5%+1.30*7%=14.1%

Since the equal amount of 50% of portfolio P has been invested in the stock A and B, therefore, the return on the portfolio P shall be calculated as follows

Expected return on portfolio P=0.50*9.9%+0.50*14.1%=12%

If the market risk premium is increased by 1% i.e. from 7% to 8%, then the expected return of the Stock A and B shall be calculated as follows:

Expected Return on stock A=5%+0.70*8%=10.6%

Expected Return on stock B=5%+1.30*8%=15.4%

Expected return on portfolio P=0.50*10.6%+0.50*15.4%=13%

So the expected return on portfolio P has been increased by 1% i.e. from 12% to 13% when the market risk premium has been increased by 1%.

Based on the above calculations, the answer shall be a. The required return on Portfolio P would increase by 1%
