The profit that is gained by the company for selling a unit is equal to the difference between the revenue and total cost. In this item the revenue is given to be $45 and the profit is $10. To answer this item, we let x be the cost such that,

                   45 - c = 10

Simplifying,

                      c = 45 - 10

Further simplification will lead us to,

                      c = 35

Well, in my opinion, there should be a little category for that, but then again, that may require extra moderation. Also, the guide lines say to never include personal information.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

33.33%

Explanation:

Let weight of T-bill be x, therefore weight of stock will be 1-x

Portfolio = Weight of stock*Beta of stock + Weight of T-bills*Beta of T-bills

1 = (1-x)*1.5 + x*0

1 = 1.5 - 1.5x

x = 0.5/1.5

x = 0.3333

x = 33.33%

Therefore, the percentage of the portfolio invested in treasury bills is 33.33%.
