Answer:
Risk free interest rate is 5%
Y is 15.5% at a Beta of 1.5
X is 0.29 when Y is 7%
Explanation:
Risk free interest is 0.05 which 5% as given in the equation
The average expected return is given by Y
Y=0.05+0.07X
Since Beta is the same as X, when equals 1.5,Y is calculated thus
Y=0.05+0.07(1.5)
Y=0.05+0.105
Y=0.155
Y=15.5%
The value of Beta at an average return of 7% is computed thus:
7%=0.05+0.07X
where X is the unknown
0.07=0.05+0.07X
0.07-0.05=0.07X
0.02=0.07X
X=0.02/0.07
X=0.29
The scenario illustrates that the Beta, which is the risk of investment and the Y , the expected average return are positively correlated.
Answer:
operating exposure
Explanation:
Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that the term being mentioned is known as operating exposure and deals with the company's operations over various months or years and the changes incurred due to unexpected changes in the exchange rate.

Answer:
The manufacturing overhead applied to work in process is:
D. $79,000
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Beginning work in process inventory 30,000
Direct materials used in production 50,000
Direct labor 60,000
Total manufacturing costs to account for 219,000
Manufacturing overhead applied to WIP 79,000 (219,000 - 140,000)
Ending work in process inventory 72,000
b) The manufacturing overhead applied to Work in Process is the difference between the total manufacturing costs to account for and the costs of beginning work in process, direct materials, and direct labor for the period. When the ending work in process is deducted from the total manufacturing costs, the resulting figure represents the cost of goods transferred to finished goods inventory.
Answer: $252
Explanation:
GDP is calculated by summing up the value of final goods and services in a country within a period. This means that intermediate values are not included and this is done to avoid double counting.
The GDP contribution here therefore will be the value of the meals created;
= 50 * 5.04
= $252
Answer:
Margin of safety= $60,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
A firm's forecasted sales are $250,000 and its break-even sales are $190,000.
The margin of safety is the excess of sales from the break-even point. To calculate the margin of safety, we need to use the following formula:
Margin of safety= (current sales level - break-even point)
Margin of safety= 250,000 - 190,000= 60,000
