Answer:

The expected return on this stock is:

C. -6.80%.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

State of the  Economy      Probability     E(R)    Weighted Value

Boom                                  0.40             16%      0.064

Recession                          0.60            -22%    -0.132

Total expected returns                                      -0.068

= -6.8%

Let us assume that this stock is Stock A.  Therefore, Stock A's expected return is given by adding the weighted returns of the two economic states of Boom and Recession.  The result shows that the returns will be negative (-6.8%).  This implies that instead of appreciating in value, the stock will actually depreciate by 6.8%.

You wish to earn a return of 13% on each of two stocks, X and Y. Stock X is expected to pay a dividend of $3 in the upcoming yea
Otrada [13]

Answer: D. will be less than the intrinsic value of stock Y

Explanation:

Based on the information given above, the intrinsic value of Stock X will be calculated thus:

D1 = Dividend in next year = $3

g = growth rate = 7%

r = = 13%

Therefore, intrinsic value of Stock X will be:

= D1 / (r-g)

= 3 / (13% - 7%)

= 3/6%

= 3 / 0.06

= $50

Therefore, the intrinsic value of stock X is $50.

Intrinsic value of Stock Y will b calculated thus:

D1 = $4

g = 7%

r = 13%

Intrinsic value of Stock Y will be:

= D1 / (r-g)

= 4 / (13% - 7%)

= 4/6%

= 4 / 0.06

= 66.67

Intrinsic value of Stock Y is $66.67

Therefore, the intrinsic value of Stock X will be less than the intrinsic value of Stock Y

Your latest shipment of chicken has some items with usda stickers and some items with usda grade stamps. what is the difference
Ket [755]
USDA actually has several stickers/labels/stamps that could have different meanings. However, the sticker most likely indicates that the chicken has passed for inspection while the grading stamp means that the poultry processor also requested to have the quality of the chicken evaluated and graded.

The USDA has separate programs for the inspection and for the grading of meet. The former is mandatory and guarantees the wholesomeness of the meat. This means that the animal from which the meat was taken from is not diseased and that the meat is clean and fit for human consumption. Inspection programs are paid for by public funds. 

However, USDA also has a grading program, which is paid for by the meat processors. The grading program checks and classifies the meat according to its quality (e.g. flavor, juiciness, and tenderness). Poultry with a Grade A poultry for example is one which does not have "defects" such as feathers, discoloration and bruising.

Giving the following information:

Purchases:

40 units at $100·

70 units at $80·

First, we need to calculate the average purchase cost.

Average cost= (100*40 + 80*70 + 60*170)/280= $70.7

Now, we can calculate the value of ending inventory:

Inventory= $70.7*10= $707
