premium is 6.6 %. If you think the stock will rise to $ 117 per share by the end of the​ year, at which time it will pay a $ 1.13 ​dividend, what beta would it need to have for this expectation to be consistent with the​ CAPM?

Answer: 3.35

Explanation:

Before we use the Capital Asset Pricing Model we will first have to find the Expected Return using the figures given.

We can do that using the following formula,

Expected return = (End value - Beginning value+Dividend)/Beginning value

Expected return = (117 - 96 + 1.13)/ 96

= 23.05%

Now we can use the CAPM to find the beta.

The formula goes like,

Expected rate = Risk free rate + Beta (market risk premium)

Making beta the subject we have,

Beta (market risk premium) = Expected Rate - Risk free rate

Beta = (Expected Rate - Risk free rate) / Market risk premium

Beta = (23.05% - 4.1%)/6.6%

Beta = 3.34923484848

Beta = 3.35

VikaD [51]

Answer:

Nick  pay maximum $930

so correct option is d. $930

Explanation:

given data

health care policy = $250

co-insurance provision = 80 %

it mean claim to be paid by insurance company = 80%

and claim to be paid by Nick =  20 %

co payment cap = $1,000

claim insurance = $600

company paid  = $280

total bills = $5,000

to find out

How much will Nick have to pay for the second claim

solution

we get first amount to be paid by insurance company and nick  is

amount to be paid by insurance company and nick  = $600 - $250

amount to be paid by insurance company and nick = $350

and

we know here 80% of $350  paid by insurance company

so paid by insurance company  = 80% of $350 = $280

and  paid by Nick = $350 - $280 = $70

so Limit available to co payment = $1000 - $70

Limit available to co payment = $930

so Nick  pay maximum $930

so correct option is d. $930

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

take the payments over time payout

Explanation:

My personal opinion/advice would be to take the payments over time payout. There are many reasons for this, the first one being that most individuals are not used to receiving large sums of cash and usually end up wasting all the money as soon as they receive it, which usually does not occur if the payments are made over time. The second and more important reason is that if the payments are made over different years your would pay a much lesser amount on taxes every year that passes. This means that the even with the interest rate you would most likely have more overall money if you take the payments over time.
