Answer:
The calculations are shown below:
Explanation:
The calculations are shown below:
a. The expected rate of return is
Return = Risk free return + Beta × (Market return - risk free return)
= 5% + 1.9 × (11.20% - 5%)
= 5% + 11.78%
= 16.78%
b. Now the alpha is
Alpha = Actual rate of return - Expected rate of return
= 9.2% - 16.78%
= - 7.58%
c. No , the CAPM is not valid as the expected rate of return is more than the actual rate of return
Answer:
11.3%
Explanation:
Given that,
Growth rate of industrial production, IP = 4%
Inflation rate, IR = 3.0%
Beta = 1.1 on IP
Beta = 0.5 on IR
Rate of return = 7%
Before the changes in industrial production and inflation rate:
Rate of return = α + (Beta on IP) + (Beta on IR)
7% = α + (1.1 × 4%) + (0.5 × 3%)
7% = α + 4.4% + 1.5%
7% - 4.4% - 1.5% = α
1.1% = α
With the changes:
Rate of return:
= α + (Beta on IP) + (Beta on IR)
= 1.1% + (1.1 × 7%) + (0.5 × 5%)
= 1.1% + 7.7% + 2.5%
= 11.3%
Therefore, the revised estimate of the expected rate of return on the stock is 11.3%.
The correct option is D.
Checking account is appropriate for Jorge in this situation because he plans to remove the money from his account in a few weeks time.
The major difference between saving account and checking account is that, saving account is majorly used to save and accumulate money for a medium or long time goals or for emergencies. The banks can count on the money staying in saving account for some time and a great part of it is not hold on reserve.
But a checking account is an instant access account. Money put in this account are usually hold in reserve by the banks because the owners can decided to withdraw at any time; banks can lend out money from checking accounts, so they make money on the accounts by charging fees.

Answer: Lower quality
Explanation: U.S auto industry comes under the oligopoly market structure with small number of sellers operating at very large scale. In an oligopoly market structure, the firms in the industry compete on the basis of advertising, product differentiation etc. and not on price.
If US auto manufacturers do so, buyers will surely assume that the quality of product offered is lower than others.
