Answer:

1.1265

Explanation:

The computation of the portfolio beta is shown below:

= Stock Q portfolio percentage × beta of Stock Q + Stock R portfolio percentage × beta of Stock R + Stock S portfolio percentage × beta of Stock S + Stock T portfolio percentage × beta of Stock Q

= 0.25 × 1.28 + 0.25 × 0.45 + 0.15 × 1.78 + 0.35 × 1.22

= 0.32 + 0.1125 + 0.267 + 0.427

= 1.1265

Olenka [21]

Answer:

The consumer's level of involvement can lead to two types of buying decisions: limited problem solving or extended problem solving

Explanation:

limited problem solving:

It is a problem solving process in which customer is only willing to put very little effort to make a purchase decision in order to fulfill his want or need. Purchaser uses simple decision rules for reaching a a purchase decision with minimal research done. He is not much concerned about the best solution and has limited resources and time for searching information and assessing each alternative thoroughly.

For example: you need a new pair of joggers for gym.  You are already have an idea about joggers and know about new available materials and attributes. So you might do a bit research online and come to a decision comparatively quickly. You might consider your favorite outlet instead of searching for the joggers at every outlet. So you take buying decision limiting involvement in this process.

extended problem solving

In this process the costumer attempts to collect as much information as possible, and thoroughly assess and evaluate product alternatives. So in this situation buyer don't have much idea about the product brands, attributes and characteristics to access the product. Purchaser will research, differentiate and put a lot of effort for taking best buying decision that will fulfill his needs. prior to purchasing the product, he might visit various outlets, research online, search for reviews and suggestions, take information from outlet staff. about the product Marketer should provide with such information to customer.

For example high value items like car, a house etc. Such items are not purchased often so the consumer will invest a lot of time in research and comparison in order  to take the best decision.

FarCry Industries, a maker of telecommunications equipment, has 26 million shares of common stock outstanding, 1 million shares
Margaret [11]

Answer:

wP = 114.5 / 514.6   = 0.2225 or 22.25%

Explanation:

The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure. The capital structure of a firm can be made up of one or more of the following components namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The WACC is normally calculated using the market value of these components. The formula for WACC is,

WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate)  +  wP * rP  +  wE * rE

Where,

  • wD, wP and wE represents the weight of debt, preferred stock and common equity in the capital structure based on the market value
  • rD, rP and rE are the cost of debt, preferred stock and common equity respectively.

To calculate the weight that should be assigned to the preferred stock in the calculation of WACC, we need to determine the market value of preferred stock and the market value of the capital structure.

Market Value - Debt = 10000 * 1000 * 1.01  =  $10.1 million

Market Value - Preferred stock = 1 * 114.50  = $114.5 million

Market Value - Common equity = 26 * 15  =  $390 million

Total MV of capital structure = 10.1 + 114.5 + 390  = $514.6

wP = 114.5 / 514.6   = 0.2225 or 22.25%
