C. explain why the estimated change in price using only duration is not accurate

if the market risk premium is 7%, the risk-free rate is 2% and the beta of a stock is 2.0, what is the expected return of the st

Len [333]

Expected return of the stock is greater than 12%.

Using formula, Risk free rate + beta (market risk rate - risk free rate)\

= 2% + 2.0 (7%-2%)

= 13.6 - 0.4* risk premium

Risk premium of a stock is greater than 12%.

A stock's total return takes into account both capital gains and losses as well as dividend income, as opposed to a stock's nominal return, which only displays its price movement. In addition to considering the actual rate of return, investors should consider their ability to withstand the risk involved with a given investment. An investment's return on investment (ROI) provides a general indication of its profitability. The return on investment (ROI) is calculated by subtracting the investment's initial cost from its final value, dividing the result by the cost of the investment, and finally multiplying the result by 100.

Note that the full question is:

If the market risk premium is 7%, the risk-free rate is 2% and the beta of a stock is 2.0, what is the expected return of the stock?

A. less than 12%.

B. 12%.

C. greater than 12%.

D. cannot be determined.

Lemony Company made sales of $38,000 million during 2018. Cost of goods sold for the year totaled $16,340 million. At the end of

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Gross profit = 57%

Inventory turnover = 8.60 Times

Explanation:

The gross profit percentage can be calculated by dividing the gross profit by sales. Inventory turnover can be calculated by dividing the cost of goods sold by the average inventory, in this case average inventory is not given in the question. Average inventory can be calculated by dividing the sum of opening and closing inventory with 2.

Gross profit = (Sales - Cost of goods sold) / Sales x 100

Gross profit = (38,000 - 16,340) /38000 x 100%

Gross profit = 21,660/38,000 x 100

Gross profit = 57%

Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold / Average inventory

Inventory turnover = 16340/1900

Inventory turnover = 8.60 Times

Average inventory = (1800 + 2000) /2

Average inventory = 1900 Million

Consider a two-firm oligopoly facing a market inverse demand curve of P = 100 – 2(q1 + q2), where q1 is the output of Firm 1 and

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

option (2) q1 = 16; q2 = 12

Explanation:

Given:

P = 100 - 2(q1 + q2)

here,

q1 is the output of Firm 1 and q2 is the output of Firm 2

Firm 1's marginal cost = $12

Firm 2's marginal cost = $20

Now,

Profit maximising level of output is attained where the marginal revenue equals the marginal cost

Thus,

for firm 1,

Total revenue, TR = P×Q

TR = (100 - 2q1 - 2q2) × q1

or

TR = 100q1 - 2(q1)² - 2(q1)(q2)

also,

MR = $\frac{\delta TR}{\delta Q}$

thus,

MR = 100 - 4q1 - 2q2

MC = $12

now

MR = MC

or

100 - 4q1 - 2q2 = 12

or

88 = 4q1 + 2q2

or

q2 = 44 - 2q1 ............... (1)

also,

for firm 2, we have

TR = (100 - 2q1 - 2q2) × q2

or

TR = 100q2 - 2(q1)(q2) - 2(q2)²

and,

$MR = \frac{\delta TR}{\delta Q}$

or

MR = 100 - 2q1 - 4q2

and

MC = $20

Now,

MR = MC

or

100 - 2q1 - 4q2 = 20

or

80 - 4q2 = 2q1

or

40 - 2q2 = q1 .....................(2)

Now,

substituting the value of q2 from (1), we get

q1 = 40 - 2(44 - 2q1)

or

q1 = 40 - 88 + 4q1

or

3q1 = 48

or

q1 = 16 units

substituting the value of q1 in equation (1) , we get

q2 = 44 - 2 × 16

or

q2 = 12 units

Therefore,

The correct answer is option (2) q1 = 16; q2 = 12
