Assume a firm has a beta of 1.2. All else held constant, the cost of equity for this firm will increase if the: beta decreases.
eduard

Answer:

Risk-free rate decreases

Explanation:

The CAPM formula for calculating cost of equity requires one to know the value of 3 pieces of information only:

1. the market rate of return,

2. the beta value

3. the risk-free rate.

Ra = Rrf + [Ba∗(Rm−Rrf)]

where:

Ra=Cost of Equity

Rrf = Risk-Free Rate

Ba = Beta

Rm=Market Rate of Return

​From the formula

Ra = Rrf + [1.2∗(Rm−Rrf)]

Ra = Rrf + 1.2Rm - 1.2Rrf

From Ra = 1.2Rm -0.2Rrf

From the expression above, it can be seen that the lower the value of Rrf (Risk-Free rate), the higher the value of Ra.

Suppose that an economy is initially operating at a point on its PPC. If it then experiences an expansion in its production capa
hram777 [196]

Answer:

C. Inside its PPC

Explanation:

The Production possibility Curve also known as Production Possibility Frontier PPF is the curve that depict the relationship in the production of 2 given goods in an economy (See Image).  

The curve basically shows 5 situations:

1. Point A: where all the production is devoted to Wheat

2. Point B: where all the production is devoted to Cotton

3. Points C: Any given point along the curve different to point A and B represent the trade off in the production of the 2 goods

4. Point D: Is an impossible point to achieve as it is outside the capabilities of the curve

5. Point E: Is an inefficient point of production as it is below the possibilities of production.

In the case of the expantion of the production capacity while the total spending fails to rise as fast. Then, the economy ends up in point E were inefficiency must be solve in order to produce in a maximum capacity.

What is the level of measurement where outcomes are based on some underlying continuum where it is possible to speak about how m
arlik [135]

The answer is interval level of measurement. In this level of measurement, the distance or space between points does have significance. For instance, when we measure temperature (in Fahrenheit), the distance from 80-90 is similar as the distance from 100-110. Thus, the interval between values is interpretable.

Hirons Air uses two measures of activity, flights and passengers, in the cost formulas in its budgets and performance reports. T
yuradex [85]

Answer:

The spending variance for plane operating costs is closest to $282,394

Explanation:

The spending variance is the difference between the budgeted amount for an expense to be made and the actual amount that was spent on the expense. It is said to be favorable when the budgeted amount is less that the amount finally spent, and unfavorable when the budgeted amount is less than  the actual amount. To solve this, we will categorize the entries into budgeted amount and actual amount, find their respective sums, and find the difference between them, this will form the spending variance. It is shown below:

cost per flight = $3,072

cost per passenger = $14

Budgeted amount

Plane operating cost                        = $   58,190

cost of 88 flights = 88 × 3072         = $ 270,336

cost of 262 passengers = 262 × 14 = $      3,668

Total budgeted cost =                         $ 332,194

Actual Amount

Plane operating cost                         = $ 331,340

cost of 91 planes = 91 × 3072            = $ 279,552

cost of 264 passengers = 264 × 14   = $     3,696

Total Actual Cost                                = $ 614,588

Cost Variance = Total actual cost - Total budgeted cost

= 614,588 - 332,194 =$282,394. The cost variance is unfavorable because the actual cost was more than the budgeted cost
