Answer: Expected return of the portfolio = 14,70%

Explanation: First we must add the amounts to calculate the total capital:

1000 + 7000 + 6000 + 6000 = $20000

The performance of a portfolio is given by the sum of each individual expected return weighted by its weight in capital.

Therefore we must calculate the weight (w) of each type of action:

W (apple) = 1000 / 20000 = 0,05

W (microsoft) = 7000 / 20000 = 0,35

W (ford) = 6000 / 20000 = 0,30

W (time warner) = 6000 / 20000 = 0,30

Expected return of the portfolio : (0,1050 . 0,05) + (0,1690 . 0,35) + (0,1575 . 0,30) + (0,1180 . 0,30) = 0,14705 = 14,70%

Howard ​Services, Inc., has $ 8 comma 600 cash on hand on January 1. The company requires a minimum cash balance of $ 7 comma 60
skad [1K]

Answer:

The amount of cash to be borrowed = $18,040

Explanation:

The cash budget shows the expected cash payments and expected cash receipts and cash balance at the end of a particular period.

Note that in the cash budget only items of the cash are considered, therefore items like depreciation, amortization of intangible assets and apportionment of fixed costs are not included because they are not cash based.

The balance at the end = opening cash balance + cash receipts -cash payment  

Applying this to Howard ​Services, Inc.

The amount of cash to be borrowed = Minimum cash balance required - Net cash balance

DATA

Opening cash balance - 8600

Cash receipts- 548,570

Cash payment - 567,610

Net cash balance = 8600 + 548,570 - 567,610 = (10,440)

The amount of cash to be borrowed = 7,600 - (10,440)

                                                               =7,600+10,440=18040

The amount of cash to be borrowed = $18,040

<em>Note a negative amount of 10,400 would mean that that would be first borrowed to balance the deficit, and to take the balance to the minimum required cash balance, an addition 7,600 would need to be borrowed</em>.

Assume that the short-run cost and demand data given in the tables below confront a monopolistic competitor selling a given prod
REY [17]

Profit is maximized when Q = 4 and P = $40, with maximum profit = $90.

<u>Explanation:</u>

(a)  (i) Marginal cost (MC) = Change in Total cost (TC) by Change in output (Q)

(ii) Total revenue (TR) = Price (P) into Q

(iii) Marginal revenue (MR) = Change in TR by Change in Q

(iv) Profit = TR - TC

Therefore:

Q  TC  MC  P  TR  MR  PROFIT

0  25   60  0   -25

1  40  15  55  55  55  15

2  45  5  50  100  45  55

3  55  10  45  135  35  80

4  70  15  40  160  25  90

5  90  20  35  175  15  85

6  115  25  30  180  5  65

7  145  30  25  175  -5  30

8  180  35  20  160  -15  -20

9  220 40  15  135  -25  -85

10  265 45  10  100  -35  -165

When Q = 4, MR = $25 and MC = $15, so MR > MC. When Q = 5, MR = $15 and MC = $20, so MR < MC. Therefore,  

Profit is maximized when Q = 4 and P = $40, with maximum profit = $90.

(b)  In the long run, new firms will enter the market by being attracted by positive short run profit. Therefore in long run, demand for individual firm will decrease, price for individual firm will decrease and profit will decrease until each existing firm earns zero economic profit.
