Answer:

Total utility is 50

Explanation:

Mathematically;

TU = U1+MU2+MU3+MU4+MU5

TU = Total utility

U1= utility of 1st product of good Y

MU2= Marginal utility of 2nd product of good Y.............

MU5= Marginal utility of 5th product of good Y

Solution:

TUy= 15+15+10+7+3

TUy= 50.

Luden [163]

Answer: 0.92

Explanation:

Beta is a measure of riskiness and Market beta is always 1.

The total portfolio therefore has a beta of 1.

Portfolio Beta is weighted average of the betas of the composite stocks.

The stocks are equally invested in so their weights are 0.5.

Assume the beta needed is x.

(0.5 * 1.08) + (0.5 * x) = 1

0.54 + 0.5x = 1

0.5x = 1 - 0.54

x = 0.46/0.5

= 0.92

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                          Hubs  Sprockets

Direct materials per unit    $24      $17

Direct labor rate per hour  $14       $14

Direct labor per unit           $9.80   $4.20 ($14 *0.3)

Estimated Activity  Activity Cost Pool Overhead     Hubs  Sprockets  Total

A bank customer borrows X at an annual effective rate of 12.5% and makes level payments at the end of each year for n years.(whi
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Y = $391.10

Explanation:

We have 0.125<em>B</em>(n-1) = i

B(n-1) = In = 142.78

So that B(n-1) = 142.78/0.125 = 1142.24

Furthermore, B(n-1) = <em>Px = Pv </em>= P/(1+0.125) = 1142.24

P/1.125 = 1142.24

P = 1142.24*1.125

P = 1285.02.

The total amount of the loan = Principal repaid as of time (n-1) + Principal repaid in last payment

= 6009.12 + 1142.24

= 7151.36

So, the total amount of the loan is 7151.36.

The principal repaid in the first payment Y = 1285.02 - 0.125*7151.36

Y = 1285.02 - 893.92

Y = $391.10
