Answer:

B) False: since it is still a closely held C corporation, it cannot reduce its ordinary income through passive losses. If it hadn't been a closely held C corporation then it could have made the deductions.

Explanation:

Passive losses are losses resulting from financial activities, i.e. investments in other corporations where the investor doesn't participate in.

Passive losses cannot offset ordinary income, they must be matched against passive gains only. If passive losses exceed passive gains, they can be carried forward without limitation.

The only exception applies to C corporations that are not;

  • closely held corporations or
  • personal service corporations.

Qualifying C corporations can actually deduct passive losses from certain ordinary income.  

Closely held C Corporations are corporations where during the last 6 months, 50% or more of its stock is owned by 5 or fewer investors.

Which one of the following should earn the most risk premium based on CAPM?
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

The portfolio with a beta of 1.38 should earn the most risk premium based on CAPM.

The correct answer is B

Explanation:

A diversified portfolio with returns similar to the overall market will not earn the most risk premium because its beta is equal to 1.

A stock with a beta of 1.38 produces the most risk premium because any stock with the highest beta gives the highest risk-premium. This is the correct answer.

A stock with a beta of 0.74 does not provide the highest risk premium.

Us treasury bill does not provide any risk premium since it is the risk-free rate.

A portfolio with a beta of 1.01 does not produce the highest risk premium.
