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

Neutrino Industries stock trades at $49 per share and there are 120 million shares outstanding. The management would like to rai
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Neutrino Industries must sell <u>8.68 million shares</u> to raise $400 million.

Explanation:

To calculate this, let B represents the number of shares Neutrino Industries must sell. Therefore, we have:

Gross proceeds = $49 * B, or $49B

Underwriter charges = 6% * $49B = $2.94B

To raise $400 million, we deduct the underwriter charges from gross proceeds and solve for B as follows:

$49B – $2.94B = $400,000,000

$46.06B = 400,000,000

B = 400,000,000 / 46.06

B = 8,684,324.79 shares, or 8.68 million shares.

Therefore, Neutrino Industries must sell <u>8.68 million shares</u> to raise $400 million.

g If the beginning work in process includes 200 units that are 20% complete with respect to conversion and 30% complete with res
Temka [501]

Answer:

1,140 units

Explanation:

Note : The question requires us to use the weighted-average method. This method focuses on equivalent units of completed units and units still in process only.

Step 1 : Determine units completed and transferred

Units Completed = Beginning units + Units Started - Ending units

                              = 200 + 1,000 - 100

                              = 1,100 units

Step 2 : Calculate equivalent units of production with respect to conversion costs

Completed and transferred (1,100 x 100%)         1,100

Ending units (100 x 40%)                                         40

Total equivalent units of conversion costs         1,140

thus,

the equivalent units of productions for the period (using the weighted-average method) for conversion is 1,140 units.
