Answer:
At 6% $3,529.412 will be invested
At 11% $6,470.588 will be invested
Explanation:
Let x be the investment for 6% stock
And (10,000-x) is the investment it 11% stock
Let I be interest earned on both investments.
Using the formula
Principal(p)= Interest(I)*Rate(r)*Time(t)
p/RT= I
So considering both investments
x/(6%*1)= (10,000-x)/(11%*1)
x/0.06= (10,000-x)/0.11
Cross-multiply
0.11x= 0.06(10,000-x)
0.11x= 600- 0.06x
Rearranging
0.11x+ 0.06x= 600
0.17x= 600
x= 600/0.17= 3,529.412 amount invested at 6%
Amount invested at 11%= 10,000-3,529.412
= 6,470.588
Answer:
C. As more securities are added to a portfolio, total risk typically would be expected to fall at a decreasing rate.
Explanation:
Portfolio diversification gives more security to a portfolio, which expected to results in a decreasing rate of total risk.
The portfolio which is diversified carries the co-variance measure of risk. It has the property of reducing the risk as it diversifies the portfolio to a great extent.
It reduces the overall risk by diversifying the assets i.e. stock , bonds, commodities etc.
Hence, the most appropriate answer is option C.
Answer:
Explanation:
Old Price 27363
Exchange Rate 2.01
USD Value 55000
the company has committed to sale at $55000 existing price for next six months.
No currency hedge contract has been made by jaguar, in such case due to appreciation of pound the value of dollar will decrease but due to commitment by jaguar not to fluctuate the cost the total amount receivable in pounds will decrease as compared to 6 months before
USD Value 55000
Exchange Rate 2.15
Price in Pounds 25581
Decrease in pounds = 27363-25581 = 1782 loss
Answer:
1.41 Approx
Explanation:
The computation of the beta for the stock T is shown below:
Beta of portfolio = Respective betas × Respective investment weights
1.30 = (0.14 × 0.81) + (0.5 × 1.36) + (0.36 × beta of the Stock T)
1.30 =0.7934 + (0.36 × beta of the Stock T)
beta of the Stock T = (1.3 - 0.7934) ÷ 0.36
= 1.41 Approx
We simply multiplied the beta of each stock with its investment weights order to calculate the beta of the stock T as portfolio beta is given
