MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The new portfolio beta is 1.31 rounded off to two decimal places.

Explanation:

The portfolio beta is a function of the sum of the weighted average betas of the individual stock's that form up the portfolio. The portfolio beta is calculated using the following formula,

Portfolio beta = wA * Beta of A + wB * Beta of B + ... + wN * Beta of N

Where,

  • w is the weightage of each stock in the portfolio

The beta of the portfolio when one stock with a beta of 1 is sold is,

The sum of individual stock betas for 19 stocks is = 20 * 1.31  -  1 * 1  = 25.2

The new portfolio beta when one stock with a beta of 0.97 is added is,

Portfolio beta = (25.2 + 0.97) / 20

Portfolio beta = 1.3085 rounded off to 1.31

A change in the dollar value of the British pound from​ $1.60 to​ $1.50 represents A. an increase in the pound price of British
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

1 pound = $1.60

1 pound = $1.50

So, there is a depreciation in the value of pound relative to the dollar and appreciation in the value of dollar relative to the pound.

Now, suppose a resident of united states purchase some quantity of goods(say, 20 shirts) from the seller in United kingdom.

Price of each shirt = 2 pounds

Hence,

Before the change in exchange rate, then the buyer have to pay in dollars:

= 20 × (2 × $1.60)

= 20 × 3.2

= $64

After the change in exchange rate, then the buyer have to pay in dollars:

= 20 × (2 × $1.50)

= 20 × 3

= $60

Hence, the amount paid by the resident of united states reduced because of the fall in exchange rate. Now, they have to pay less for the same amount of commodities. This shows that there is an appreciation in the currency of US relative to UK.

Sabv Corporation's break-even-point in sales is $840,000, and its variable expenses are 75% of sales. If the company lost $34,00
zhuklara [117]

Answer:sales must have amounted to:$704,000

Explanation:

Contribution ratio = Sales ratio - Variable cost ratio

= 100%- 75%

=25%

Sales to break even = Fixed expenses / Contribution margin ratio

Therefore,

 Fixed expenses = Sales to break even   x  Contribution margin ratio

=$840,000 x 25%

=$210,000

Contribution margin can also be calculated as

Fixed expenses- Operating loss

=$210,000 -$34,000

=$176,000

Sales = Contribution margin/ Contribution ratio

= $176,000/25% =$704,000
