Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Equity Beta = 1.1413

Explanation:

The formula to find the asset beta is

Asset Beta = Equity Beta/(1+(1-tax rate)(Debt/Equity))

We will put the values given in the question in this formula

Asset Beta = 0.8

Tax rate = 0.36

Debt = 0.40

Equity = 0.60

0.8=Equity Beta/(1+(0.64)(0.40/0.60)

0.8=Equity Beta/1+0.4266

0.8=Equity Beta/1.4266

1.4266*0.8= Equity Beta

Equity Beta = 1.1413

You invest $1,000 in a complete portfolio. The complete portfolio is composed of a risky asset with an expected rate of return o
gladu [14]

Answer:

The rate of return on the risky asset is 16% and on treasury bill is 6% and we need a return of (1100-1,000)/1000= 10% or 0.1

If we think of x as the percentage investment in risky asset and 1-x as the investment in non risky asset we can mathematically find what proportion we need to invest in each asset to get this return.

16x+ 6(1-x)=10

16x+6-6x=10

10x=4

x=4/10

x= 0.4

This equation tells us that we should invest 40% in risky assets and 1-x which is 60% in treasury bills. We can test our answer by putting these values and see if the return is 10 %

(0.4*16)+(0.6*6)= Rate of return

Rate of return=10%

10% of 1000 = 100

100+1000=$1100

Flip's Pizzeria Inc. has the following financial items for the current year: Advertising Expenses $50,000 Cost of Goods Sold $66
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Flip's taxable income for the current year is $2,10,000.

Explanation:

Given information:

Advertising Expenses = $50,000

Cost of Goods Sold = $660,000

Other Operating Expenses = $390,000

Sales = $1,830,000

Wages and Salaries = $520,000

Capital Gain = $15,000

The formula for taxable income is

Taxable income for corporation = Gross Sales - cost of goods sold - operating expense - Interest expense - Tax deduction/ credit

Where,

Operating expense = Advertising Expenses + Wages and Salaries + Other Operating Expenses

Using this formula we get

\text{Taxable income for corporation}=1830000-660000-(390000+520000+50000)

\text{Taxable income for corporation}=210000

Therefore, Flip's taxable income for the current year is $2,10,000.

A storm on one of the planets listed in the table lasted for 132 hours, or 5.5 of the planet's days. The equation 5.5h = 132 giv
padilas [110]

Answer:

<u><em></em></u>

  • <u><em>The planet is Earth</em></u>

Explanation:

<em>1. Equation (given)</em>:

  • 5.5h = 132

2. Solve by applying division property of equalities: divide both sides by 5.5

  • h = 132/5.5
  • h = 24.0

The equation gives the length in hours of a day, then the solution h = 24.0 means that the length of the day on the planet is 24.0 horas.

The table is:

Length of Day

Planet           Length of Day (hours)

Earth                   24.0

Mars                    24.7

Jupiter                  9.9

Therefore, the solution h = 24.0 shows that the planet is Earth.
