Answer:  BP = BD(WD) + BE(WE)
                    1 = 0.86(1-WE) + 1.39WE
                    1 = 0.86-0.86WE + 1.39WE
                    1 = 0.86 + 0.53WE
                  -0.53WE = -0.14
                   0.53WE  = 0.14
                          WE   = 0.14/0.53
                          WE   = 0.2641509434
                          WD = 1 - WE
                          WD = 1 - 0.2641509434
                          WD = 0.7358490566
The dollar amount of investment in stock D = 0.7358490566 x $215,000
                                                                          = $158,207.54
Explanation: The beta of the portfolio is 1, which corresponds to the beta of the market. The beta of the portfolio equals beta of each stock multiplied by the percentage of fund invested in each stock(weight). The weight of stock D is equal to 1 - weight of stock E. Therefore, we need to make weight of stock E the subject of the formula by solving the problem mathematically and collecting the like terms. The weight of stock E is 0.2641509434. The weight of stock E will be subtracted from 1 so as to obtain the weight of stock D, which is 0.7358490566. The dollar amount of stock D equal to $215,000 multiplied by 0.7358490566, which is $158,207.54.

Answer:
Total Claim = $2416
Explanation:
The coverage on the currency = $250
The coverage on the jewelry = $1000
The limit on the gold, pewter, and silver = $2500
The amount that is stolen:
The amount of cash = $270
The worth of jewelry = $1734
Pewterware = $1666
The miximum coverage = 250 + 1000 + 2500 = $3750
Actual loss = 270 + 1734 + 1666 = $3670
Reimbursement amount = 250 + 1000 + 1666 = $2916
Total Claim = Total Amount Covered – Deductible  
Total Claim = $2916 - $500 = $2416

Answer: Option (c) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Alternatives for a person if he do not attend his neighbor's barbecue:
(1) Watch television with some friends = he value this at $17
(2) Read a good novel = he value this at $14
(3) Go in to work = he could earn $16 during the barbecue
Opportunity cost is the benefit that is foregone for an individual by choosing one alternative over other alternatives available to him.
If the opportunity cost is lower for an individual then this will benefit him whereas if the opportunity cost is higher then this will not benefit the individuals. 
Therefore, the opportunity cost of going to his neighbor's barbecue is the enjoyment he get from watching television with some friends because this is the highest valued alternative forfeited.
