Answer:
= 18.7%
Explanation:
<em>A portfolio is a collection of assets/ investment. The return on a portfolio is the weighted average of all the return of the individual assets weighted according to the percentage of total funds allocated to each assets.</em>
Expected return on portfolio:
E(R) =( Wa*Ra) + (Wb*Rb)
Wa = 56% , Wb = 100-56 = 44%
Ra = 12%, Rb = 24%
E(R) = (0.56*24%) + (0.44× 12%)
= 18.7%
Answer:
8.14 times
Explanation:
The computation of the Time interest earned ratio is shown below:
As we know that
Times interest earned ratio = (Earnings before interest and taxes) ÷ (Interest expense)
where,
Earnings before interest and taxes = Income before income tax for the year + Interest expense
But before tha, we need to do the following calculations
The interest amount is
= $350,000 × 0.08
= $28,000
The net profit is
= $1,750,000 × 8%
= $140,000
The EBIT is
= Profit before tax + interest expense
= $140,000 ÷ (1 - 0.30) + $28,000
= $200,000 + $28,000
= $228,000
And, the interest expense is $28,000
So, the TIE ratio is
= $228,000 ÷ $28,000
= 8.14 times
