Stock J has a beta of 1.26 and an expected return of 13.46 percent, while Stock K has a beta of .81 and an expected return of 10
Oxana [17]

Answer:

J = 0.422

K = 0.58

Explanation:

When a portfolio is said to have risk that is equal to market, this means that the beta is equal to 1.

Let us define the weight of stock J = x

Let us define the Weight of stock K = (1-x)

To get the The Beta of portfolio = (x*1.26) + ((1-x)*0.81) = 1

When we open the brackets,

1.26x + 0.81 - .81x = 1

1.26x-0.81x = 1-0.81

0.45x = 0.19

To get x we divide through by 0.45

X = 0.422

Therefore the Weight of stock J = 0.422

Then the Weight of stock K = 1 - 0.422 = 0.578

Approximately 0.58

Savanna Company is considering two capital investment proposals. Relevant data on each project are as follows: Project Red Proje
liberstina [14]

Answer:

(a) Cash payback period:

     Project Red = 5.5 years

     Project blue  = 4.6 years

(b) Net present value for project Red = $19,760

     Net present value for project Blue =$164,580

(c) Annual rate of return:

Project Red =11.36%

Project Blue  =18.75%

(d) Project Blue

Explanation:

Given Data;  

Project Blue Capital investment = $640,000

Project Red Capital investment = $440,000

Project Red  Annual Net income = $ 25,000.

Project Blue Annual Net income = $ 60,000

Annual depreciation Project Red = (440000/8)

                                                       = 55,000

Annual depreciation Project Blue = (640000/8)

                                                       =  80,000

Annual cash inflow project A = $ 80,000

Annual cash inflow project B = $140,000

(a)

Cash payback period = Initial investment/cash flow per period

Project Red = 440000 /80000

                   = 5.5 years

Project blue = 640000/ 140000

                    = 4.6 years

(b)

Project Red  Present value of cash inflows = 80000 ×5.747

                                                                       = $459,760

Project Blue Present value of cash inflows  =140000×5.747

                                                                        = 804580

Net present value for project Red = $459,760 - $440,000

                                                        = $19,760

Net present value for project Blue = 804580 - $640,000  

                                                         =$164,580

(c) Annual rate of return:

Project Red   = $25,000 / ($440000)/2

                       =11.36%

Project Blue =  $60000/(640000/2)

                    =18.75%

(d) Savanna should select Project Blue because it has a higher positive NPV and a higher annual rate of return. AND Project Blue has early cash back period also
