Answer:

Ans. rate of return= 7.37%

Explanation:

The easiest way to find this discount rate is to set a MS Excel sheet and use the function "Find Goal". In the attachments, there is a spreadsheet that I got ready for you. There are 2 cells in color, one is yellow and the other one is green. You just go ahead and replace the value of the green cell with any percentage that you want, for example, 2%, then use the function "find goal" and set the objective cell to be the yellow cell (B5), changing the cell in green (B7), and hit enter.

Best of luck.

At the beginning of 2014, Sabrina Company had the following normal ledger balances: Accounts Receivable: $24,000 Allowance for U
zimovet [89]

Answer:

$10,300

Explanation:

Accounts receivable, beginning = $24,000

Credit sales = $450,000

Cash collections from customers = $460,000

Accounts receivables written off = $3,700

Accounts receivables, ending = Accounts receivable, beginning + Credit sales - Cash collections from customers - Accounts receivables written off

Accounts receivables, ending = $24,000 + $450,000 - $460,000 - $3,700

Accounts receivables, ending = $10,300

So, at the end of the year, the balance in the Accounts receivable is $10,300.

The stock of Big Joe's has a beta of 1.64 and an expected return of 13.30 percent. The risk-free rate of return is 5.8 percent.
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

expected return on market = 0.10373 or 10.373%

Explanation:

Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.  

The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * rpM

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • rpM is the market risk premium

We will first calculate the market risk premium using the required rate of return for stock, beta and risk free rate and plugging these values in the formula above.

0.1330 = 0.058 + 1.64 * rpM

0.1330 - 0.058 = 1.64 *rpM

0.075 = 1.64 * rpM

rpM = 0.075 / 1.64

rpM = 0.04573 or 4.573%

As we know that the beta for market is always equal to 1, we can calculate the rate of return for market as,

expected return on market = 0.058 + 1 * 0.04573

expected return on market = 0.10373 or 10.373%
