Answer:

0.68

Explanation:

A portfolio consists of an investment of $7,500

The amount of common stock is 20

The portfolio beta is 0.65

Suppose one of the stock in the portfolio is sold with a beta of 1.0 for $7,500

The proceeds realized is then used to purchase another stock with a beta of 1.50

The first step is the to calculate the change in beta

Change in beta= 1.50-1

= 0.5

The next step is to divide the change in beta by the number of common stock

= 0.5/20

= 0.025

Therefore, the new beta can be calculated as follows

= 0.65+0.025

= 0.68

Hence the new portfolio's beta is 0.68

frosja888 [35]

Answer: Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Correct option: For the 10th worker, the marginal revenue product is $120 per day.

If she hires 9 workers then the store can sell 200 pounds of produce per day

If she hires 10 workers then the store can sell 230 pounds of produce per day

Extra units produce from hiring 10th worker = 230 - 200 = 30 pounds of produce per day

Store earns = $4 for each pound

Therefore, the marginal revenue product for the 10th worker = selling price of each pound × Extra units produce from hiring 10th worker

= $4 × 30

=$120

Sweet Dreams sells 15,000 pillows per year for $25 per unit. Variable cost per unit is $14. Sweet Dreams wants to improve custom
Radda [10]

Answer:  The answer is $27.25

Explanation:

Let x be the price Sweet dreams will charge to earn the profit of $75,000

New sales units = 20,000

New variable cost = $19

We know, Sales - Variable cost - Fixed cost = Profit

Now applying the equation,

 20,000x - (20,000*19) - 90,000 = $75000

 20,000x = $75,000 + 380,000 + 90,000

therefore, x = $27.25

So, Sweet Dreams will charge $27.25 to earn the same profit it is earning now i.e. $75000 per year.
