Answer:
The common stockholders will receive a dividend of $100000 in 2015
Explanation:
The preferred stock is non cumulative which means that in case it does not pay dividends in a certain year, the dividends will no be accumulated and the company will not be obliged to pay these dividends in later year.
The per share preferred stock dividend for the company is = 100 * 0.06 = $6
The total dividends on preferred stock per year = 6 * 25000 = $150000
The common stockholders are paid dividends after the preferred stockholders are paid.
Thus, for 2015 the common stockholders will receive a dividend of,
Common stock dividend = 250000 - 150000 = $100000
Answer:
Alpha for A is 1.40%; Alpha for B is -0.2%.
Explanation:
First, we use the CAPM to calculate the required returns of the two portfolios A and B given the risks of the two portfolios( beta), the risk-free return rate ( T-bill rate) and the Market return rate (S&P 500) are given.
Required Return for A: Risk-free return rate + Beta for A x ( Market return rate - Risk-free return rate) = 5% + 0.7 x (13% - 5%) = 10.6%;
Required Return for A: Risk-free return rate + Beta for B x ( Market return rate - Risk-free return rate) = 5% + 1.4 x (13% - 5%) = 16.2%;
Second, we compute the alphas for the two portfolios:
Portfolio A: Expected return of A - Required return of A = 12% - 10.6% = 1.4%;
Portfolio B: Expected return of B - Required return of B = 16% - 16.2% = -0.2%.

Explanation:
Bond Cur.Yld. Vol. Close Net Chg.
Doh! 9 ½ 18 9.0 5 105 1/2 - 1/4
Doh! 8 ½ 21 9.4 10 90 1/4 -1/2
1. As given in question:
Closing Price of the first bond: =105.5*10
=1055
Closing Price of the second bond: =90.25*10
=902.5
2. Yesterday's price for first bond: =(105.5+0.25)*10
=1057.5
Yesterday's price for second bond: =(90.25+0.5)*10
=907.5
3. kindly check the attached image below to see the solution to question 3
4. Capital Gain Yield for first bond =(P1-P0)/P0
=(1055-1057.5)/1057.5
=-0.236%
