Answer:

The required rate of return of the portfolio is 13.62%

Explanation:

The required rate of return is the minimum return that investors require to invest in a stock or portfolio. The required rate of return can be calculated using the CAPM formula for required rate of return. The formula is,

r = rRF + Beta * rpM

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • beta is the stock/portfolio's beta or measure of risk
  • rpM is the risk premium on market

r = 5.82% + 1.3 * 6%

r = 0.1362 or 13.62%

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

D. 2.97

The net operating asset turnover ratio is used to measure the efficiency of operating assets and to determine how well these assets are used to generate sales. The assets that are tested here are operating assets that are those assets which are required to run the day-to-day operations of the business. For instance, Property, plant, and equipment, inventory, and cash etc. Investments and unutilized assets do not fall under this category.

Here are are required to calculate the net operating asset turnover ratio, which is calculated as follows:

        Net operating asset turnover = Net sales / Net operating assets

⇒ Net operating asset turnover for 2016 = 117,351 m / 39,502 m = 2.97.

Which distribution channel is a small manufacturer of specialty wood gift products sold to gift shops most likely to use? Assume
lianna [129]

Answer:

C, producer to agent to retailer

Explanation:

For a small manufacturer that cannot afford its own sales force, the best channel or chain of distribution is for the manufacturer to send his products to an agent then the agent sells the retailers.

The agent in this case has the sales force to distribute products which the manufacturer can't afford. This means that the manufacturer is most likely going to cut a deal with the agent as to how much will be remmited or how much the products would be sold to him and then he can pass it on to retailers for an added price.

All of these helps both the manufacturer, agent and retailer make profitsas well as ensure smooth and continuos distribution of products.

Cheers.
