Answer:

The average collection period is 17.78 days.

Explanation:

In this question, we have to first compute the average receivable turnover ratio.  

The formula of the average receivable turnover ratio is shown below:

= Net credit sales ÷ Average accounts receivable

where,

Net credit sales are $811,000

And, the average accounts receivable equals to

= Beginning account receivable + ending accounts receivable ÷ 2

= $41,000 + $38,000 ÷ 2

= $39,500

So, the average receivable turnover ratio equals to

= $811,000 ÷ $39,500

= 20.53

Now, we calculate the average collection period, the formula is shown below

= Total Number of days in a year ÷ average receivable turnover ratio

= 365 ÷ 20.53

= 17.78 days.

Hence, the average collection period is 17.78 days.

Assume that the risk-free rate is 6% and the market risk premium is 8%.
valkas [14]

Answer:

r or expected rate of return - market = 0.14 or 14%

r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.2120 or 21.20%

Explanation:

Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.  

The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * rpM

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • rpM is the market risk premium

Under CAPM, the assumption follows that the beta of the market is always equal to 1.

So, expected return on the stock market will be,

r or expected rate of return - market = 0.06 + 1 * 0.08

r or expected rate of return - market = 0.14 or 14%

The beta of the stock is given. We calculate the required rate of return on the stock to be,

r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.06 + 1.9 * 0.08

r or expected rate of return - stock = 0.2120 or 21.20%
