pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Contribution margin per marketing plan = Sales - Variable cost

                                                                   =  $3,000 - $2,000

                                                                   = $1,000

A.

(1) Break-even\ in\ rooms=\frac{Fixed\ cost}{contribution\ margin\ per\ marketing\ plan}

Break-even\ in\ rooms=\frac{400,000}{1,000}

Break even in marketing plan = 400

(2) Break-even in dollars:

= Break-even in marketing plan × Average rate per plan

= 400 × 3,000

= 1,200,000

(3) Margin of safety = Actual sales - Break-even sales in dollars

                                = 1,500,000 - 1,200,000

                                = 300,000

Margin\ of\ safety\ ratio=\frac{Margin\ of\ safety}{Actual\ sales}

Margin\ of\ safety\ ratio=\frac{300,000}{1,500,000}

                                             = 20%

B.

(1) Contribution margin per marketing plan = Sales - Variable cost

                                                                   =  $4,000 - $2,000

                                                                   = $2,000

Break-even\ in\ rooms=\frac{Fixed\ cost}{contribution\ margin\ per\ marketing\ plan}

Break-even\ in\ rooms=\frac{400,000}{2,000}

Break even in marketing plan = 200

(2) Break-even in dollars:

= Break-even in marketing plan × Average rate per plan

= 200 × 4,000

= 800,000

(3) Margin of safety = Actual sales - Break-even sales in dollars

                                = 1,500,000 - 800,000

                                = 700,000

Margin\ of\ safety\ ratio=\frac{Margin\ of\ safety}{Actual\ sales}

Margin\ of\ safety\ ratio=\frac{700,000}{1,500,000}

                                             = 47%

Therefore, option (a) would achieve the margin of safety ratio more than 45%.

Dmitry [639]

$ 1,586.8743

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what will be the value of the certificate when it matures

Compounded annually

Principal P= 1000

Rate r=0.08

Period n = 6

Using this formula

A = P (1+r)^n

Let plug in the formula

1000 (1.08)^6

= 1586.8743

Therefore what will be the value of the certificate when it matures is $1586.8743

Stock A has an expected return of 17.8 percent, and Stock B has an expected return of 9.6 percent. However, the risk of Stock A
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

13.70%

Explanation:

The expected return of a portfolio is said to be the weighted average of the returns of the individual components,

Given that:

Stock A has an expected return = 17.8%

Stock B has an expected return = 9.6%

the risk of Stock A as measured by its variance is 3 times that of Stock B.

If the two stocks are combined equally in a portfolio;

Then :

The weight of both stocks will be 50% : 50 %

So the  portfolio's expected return can be determined as follows:

Expected return for stock A  = 50% × 17.8%

Expected return = 0.50 × 17.8%

Expected return = 8.9 %

Expected return for stock B = 50 % × 9.6 %

Expected return for stock B = 0.50 × 9.6%

Expected return for stock B = 4.8%

Expected return of the portfolio = summation of the expected return for both stocks

Expected return of the portfolio = 8.9 %  + 4.8%

Expected return of the portfolio =  13.70%
