Consider a mutual fund with $300 million in assets at the start of the year and 10 million shares outstanding. The fund invests

in a portfolio of stocks that provides dividend income at the end of the year of $1.5 million. The stocks included in the fund's portfolio increase in price by 7%, but no securities are sold and there are no capital gains distributions. The fund charges 12b-1 fees of .75%, which are deducted from portfolio assets at year-end. a. What is the fund's net asset value at the start and end of the year?

Answer: Start = $300 million

End = $318.59 million

Explanation:

NAV can be calculated by dividing the funds Assets net of Liabilities by the total number of outstanding shares.

At start of the year NAV is $300 million and NAV per share is therefore,

= 300 million/ 10 million

= $30 per share.

Ending NAV

During the year the fund made Investments and increased by a price of 7%

= 300 million (1 + 0.07)

= $321 million

We still have to subtract the 12b-1 fees that the fund charges though and that would result in,

= 321 million * (1 - 0.0075)

= 318.5925

= $318.59 million.

Dividing this by the total number of outstanding shares we have,

= 318.59 /10

= $31.86

$31.86 is the NAV per share at year end.

You are considering investing in a project with the following possible outcomes: Probability of Investment States Occurrence Ret
frutty [35]

Answer:

SD = 0.0740270 or 7.40270 percent rounded off to 7.403 percent

Explanation:

To calculate the standard deviation of the investment, we must first calculate the expected or mean return of the investment. The expected or mean return can be calculated as follows,

r = pA * rA  +  pB * rB  +  ...  +  pN * rN

Where,

  • pA, pB, ... represents the probability of state occurrence
  • rA, rB, ... represents return A, return B and so on  under each state

r = 0.2 * 0.16  +  0.4 * 0.12  +  0.2 * 0.05  +  0.2 * -0.05

r = 0.08 or 8%

The formula to calculate the standard deviation of a stock/investment is as follows,

SD = √pA * (rA - r)²  +  pB * (rB - r)²  +  ...  +  pN * (rN - r)²

SD = √0.2 * (0.16 - 0.08)²  +  0.4 * (0.12 - 0.08)²  +  0.2 * (0.05 - 0.08)²  +  0.2 * (-0.05 - 0.08)²

SD = 0.0740270 or 7.40270 percent rounded off to 7.403 percent

Madison Corporation sells three products (M, N, and O) in the following mix: 3:1:2. Unit price and cost data are: M N O Unit sal
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

The answer is 629,000.

Explanation:

  • For each unit of M sold, the price is 7 and the cost is 3, so the contribution margin is 4;
  • For each unit of N sold, the price is 4 and the cost is 2, so the contribution margin is 2;
  • For each unit of O sold, the price is 6 and the cost is 3, so the contribution margin is 3;
  • With the mix, 1 unit of sale contributes (contribution per mix) 3*M+1*N+2*O = 3*4+1*2+2*3 = 20

For covering the 340,000 of fixed costs, you have to sale 340,000/20 units. That's equal to 17,000 units.

Each unit of sales is equal to (price per mix) 7*M+4*N+6*O = 7*3+4*1+6*2 = 37. So, with 17,000 units, the total sales will be 17,000 * 37 = 629,000.

zimovet [89]

Answer:

For comprehension purpose, I would attach options to the question:

All of the following are required resources for differentiation except:

A. Strong marketing capability B. Corporate reputation for quality. C. Product engineering. D. Intense supervision of labor.

The correct answer is Option D (Intense supervision of labor)

Explanation:

The differentiation asked in the question above is product differentiation.

Product differentiation, in Economics, talks about the efficient way a producer or seller of a product makes it unique in the market thereby creating an edge between the product and other similar ones or other products.

So, strong marketing capability exposes the strength and uniqueness of the product to prospective buyers which in turn brings sales.

Corporate reputation and product engineering are a strong boost in sales, as reputable companies and the physical appearance of a product tend to get easy acceptance in the market. While Intense supervision of labor may increase the efficiency of production but it is not to be considered as a resource for differentiation.
