Stock A has a beta of 0.8, Stock B has a beta of 1.0, and Stock C has a beta of 1.2. Portfolio P has equal amounts invested in e

ach of the three stocks. Each of the stocks has a standard deviation of 25%. The returns on the three stocks are independent of one another (i.e., the correlation coefficients all equal zero). Assume that there is an increase in the market risk premium, but the risk-free rate remains unchanged. Which of the following statements is correct? Answers: a-The required returns on all three stocks will increase by the amount of the increase in the market risk premium. b-The required return on Stock A will increase by less than the increase in the market risk premium, while the required return on Stock C will increase by more than the increase in the market risk premium. c-The required return of all stocks will remain unchanged since there was no change in their betas. d-The required return on the average stock will remain unchanged, but the returns of riskier stocks (such as Stock C) will decrease while the returns on safer stocks (such as Stock A) will increase. e-The required return on the average stock will remain unchanged, but the returns of riskier stocks (such as Stock C) will increase while the returns of safer stocks (such as Stock A) will decrease.

Answer:

b-The required return on Stock A will increase by less than the increase in the market risk premium, while the required return on Stock C will increase by more than the increase in the market risk premium.

Explanation:

Beta reflects the risk associated, as the beta is low, the expected risk is also low, accordingly return expected is also keeping all things constant.

When Beta is less than 1 it means the returns will be lower than market, accordingly for Stock A the return will increase but slower than the market risk.

Whereas, the Beta is more than 1 of Stock B and accordingly the risk is more but return will grow even faster as the risk volatility is high than the market risk.

Nichols Enterprises has an investment in 250 bonds of Elliott Electronics that Nichols accounts for as a security available for
sweet [91]

Answer:

The value per bond must be $1000

Explanation:

The reason is that the short term investments must be valued at current fair market value which is $1000 per bond today so the perceived value of the unit bond which is $1200 per bond is irrelevant here.

The amount recorded = Number of bonds * Current market value

The amount recorded = 250 * $1000 = $250,000

Humphries Construction Company builds warehouses that range in size from 12,000 to 100,000 square feet. Which of the following w
elixir [45]

Answer:

The Number of warehouses completed would not be a rational base for allocating overhead costs to the warehouses.

Explanation:

For allocating the overhead cost to the warehouse. Following things need to be considered.

1. Square footage of the warehouses : Based on the square foot of the warehouse, the overhead cost can be easily allocated. As different warehouses have different square foot. So there would be different allocation criteria for each warehouse.

2. Labor Hours : According to the labor hours, the overhead expense can be allocated. In warehouse, the size of labor is matter. As more labors are available, the chances of more allocation expenses would be there and if there is less labors so the allocation expenses would be less.  

Depending upon the size of the labors, the allocation of overhead differs.

3. Direct material cost : The warehouse is required when more supplies of material is to be required. So here, direct material plays an very important role while allocating the overhead cost. Depending upon the quantity of  material, the overhead expenses differs.

4. Number of warehouses completed : As without knowing the size and capacity of the warehouses, it is difficult to allocate the overhead expense. Moreover, the same cost is been allocated which is not acceptable.

Hence, the Number of warehouses completed would not be a rational base for allocating overhead costs to the warehouses.
