Answer:

=2.98%

Explanation:

Use CAPM to find the required return of the stock;

CAPM: r = risk free + beta(market return - risk free)

risk free = 4.5% or 0.045 as a decimal

beta = -0.4

market return = 8.3% or 0.083 as a decimal

Next, plug in the numbers into the CAPM formula;

r = 0.045 -0.4(0.083 - 0.045)

r = 0.045 -0.0152

r = 0.0298 or 2.98%

Therefore the required return is 2.98%

Advocard [28]

Answer:

Option 4 is definitely correct: Whether real GDP increased cannot be determined with the information given.

Explanation:

The information that is given only states that there has been an increase in the market value of final goods and services in two years. So, we cannot conclude that production increased in Rushya or average price levels increased there as per Option A and C respectively, because market value can be increased by both increase in production or price levels. Even Option B cannot be concluded as the real GDP is dependent on other variables as compared to the total market value.

Thus, only appropriate statement is option D: we cannot determine increase in real GDP with the given information.

Value of parcel of land = $69,800 with a basis = $58,800

Harry's basis is equal to cash contributed which is $29,400

Hermione's basis is equal to cash contributed which is $29,400

Ron's basis = Basis of parcel of land - Mortgage value

                   = $18,400
