1. Assume that you manage a risky portfolio with an expected rate of return of 20% and a standard deviation of 25%. The T-bill r

ate is 7%. Suppose that you have a client that prefers to invest in your risky portfolio a proportion (y) of his total investment budget so that his overall portfolio will have an expected rate of return of 15%. (1) What is the investment proportion, y? (2.) What is the standard deviation of the rate of return on your client’s portfolio? 2. The expected rates of return for stocks A and B are 28% and 22% respectively. The T-bill rate is 12% and the expected rate of return on S&P 500 index is 24%. The standard deviation of stock A is 22% while that of B is 20%. If you could invest only in T-bills plus one of these stocks, which stock would you choose?

Answer:

The computations are shown below:

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Overall portfolio Expected rate of return = Risky portfolio expected rate of return × investment proportion + t- bill rate × 1 - investment proportion

0.15 = 0.20(y) + 0.07(1 - y)

0.15 = 0.20y + 0.07 - 0.07y

So,

y = 61.54%

2.  Now Standard Deviation is

= investment proportion × standard deviation

= (0.6154) × (0.25)

So,

Standard Deviation = 15.38%

2. We Use Sharpe Ratio to choose out the right stock which is shown below:

Sharpe Ratio = (Expected rate of return - Risk free rate of return) ÷ Standard deviation

For Stock A, it is

= (22% - 12%) ÷ 20%

= 0.5

For Stock B, it is  

= (28% - 12%) ÷22%

= 0.73

Since the Sharpe ratio has highest in Stock B and the same is to be choose

= 3÷4 of May month + 1÷4 of April month

= 3÷4 × $195,200 + 1÷4 × $156,800

= $146,400 + $39,200

= $185,600

Hence,  The cash payments for Finch Company in the month of June is $185,600.

Answer:

The recent loss of 440 manufacturing jobs at Ford Australia has generated a lot of debate about the long-term viability of the Australian car industry, and manufacturing in general. This debate has included arguments that manufacturing is important and needs more government support. It has also seen some commentators argue that Australian’s have no right to expect jobs in manufacturing.

While most of this debate has focused on the automotive manufacturing sector, there is a wider question that needs to be answered. This relates to the issue of whether it is feasible for an advanced economy to grow and prosper without a manufacturing sector?

Suppose that the price of basketball tickets at your college is determined by market forces. Currently, the demand and supply sc
belka [17]

Answer:

a) see attached graph. There is nothing unusual with the supply curve, it is simply fixed. This happens to most services, e.g. there is a fixed number of hotel rooms available for rent, in the short run you cannot add more rooms per night if the demand increases. In order to increase the quantity supplied, you would need to build a larger hotel, or in this case, a larger stadium.

b) the equilibrium price is $8 and the equilibrium quantity is 8,000 tickets

c) if the college plans to increase enrollment, the demand might increase, leading to a higher equilibrium price, but the supply will remain the same until the stadium is expanded.

Explanation:

Price              Quantity Demanded (Qd)          Quantity Supplied (Qs)

$4                            10,000                                        8,000

$8                             8,000                                        8,000

$12                            6,000                                        8,000

$16                            4,000                                        8,000

$20                           2,000                                        8,000

Cnooc, a Chinese public-sector company, has made a bid to purchase Canada’s Nexen, a big oil company, for C$ 15.1 billion in Jun
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

351,830,000 Yuan

Explanation:

Investment value = C$ 15.1 billion

Value in Yuan in June 2012 =   C$ 15.1 billion x  6.3698 Yuan/C$

Value in Yuan in September 2012 =   C$ 15.1 billion x  6.3465 Yuan/C$

The difference in Yuan if Cnooc has purchased Nexen in September instead of June is:

D= 15,100,000,000*(6.3698 - 6.3465)\\D= 351,830,000 \ Yuan

Cnocc saves 351,830,000 Yuan
