B. To help determine how much inventory to keep in stock of each item in the outlet, I would consider two factors. The first one is the certain amount of each item type in the first week - determining the number of each items input in the stock to be the original data to compare. The second is the number of items sold and still on stock. This would help determine invetory to keep in stock.

B. If I was running a store, I would prefer to use the pick up at store buying method. There would be cashier at the register to check the products and bills as well as receive money from the customers. This is the traditional and still always the most common methods. As the fact that people nowadays still like shopping in physical store, this is definitely the most effective method.

C. The inventory control method I would use when operating a store is to adopt modern technology like bar code to control the inventory stock. By using this technology, I would need to consider the bar code for each type and establishing software to automatically input the information about the number of items sold and in stock. With inputting the number of total items at the beginning and giving each item its corresponding bar code, the sales or number of stock would be tracked by the software.

D. An example of two commodities to be displayed together at store is pencil and rubber. Pencil and rubber undoubtedly are complementary products of each other. Complementary products are made to be used together. Each item requires the other for their complete uses. This is also the case of Rubber and Pencil and each item would not be fully used without the presence of the other.

4.What is the dividend for the 4th year?

$4.60

5.What is the dividend for the 5th year?

$5.43

6.Compute the present value of these dividends if the required rate of return is 14 percent.

1. $2.34

2. $2.54

3. $2.63

4. $2.73

5. $2.82

Explanation:

Last Dividend paid = $2.15

Growth rate:

First two years = 24%

Following three years = 18%

FV of Dividend = PV ( 1 + g )^n

Dividend for the 1st year = $2.15 x ( 1 + 24% )^1 = $2.15 x ( 1 + 0.24 )^1 = $2.15 x ( 1.24 )^1 = $2.67

Dividend for the 2nd year = $2.15 x ( 1 + 24% )^2 = $2.15 x ( 1 + 0.24 )^2 = $2.15 x ( 1.24 )^2 = $3.31

Dividend for the 3rd year = $3.31 x ( 1 + 18% )^1 = $3.31 x ( 1 + 0.18 )^1 = $3.31 x ( 1.18 )^1 = $3.90

Dividend for the 4th year = $3.31 x ( 1 + 18% )^2 = $3.31 x ( 1 + 0.18 )^2 = $3.31 x ( 1.18 )^2 = $4.60

Dividend for the 5th year = $3.31 x ( 1 + 18% )^3 = $3.31 x ( 1 + 0.18 )^3 = $3.31 x ( 1.18 )^3 = $5.43

6.The present value of these dividends

Present value of dividends can be calculated by following formula:

PV = FV / ( 1 + r )^n

FV = Dividend for the year

r = rate of return = 14%

n = number of years

1. PV = $2.98 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^1 = $2.98 / ( 1.14 )^1 = $2.98 / 1.14 = $2.34

2. PV = $3.31 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^2 = $3.31 / ( 1.14 )^2 = $3.31 / 1.2996 = $2.54

3. PV = $3.90 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^3 = $3.90 / ( 1.14 )^3 = $3.90 / 1.481544 = $2.63

4. PV = $4.60 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^4 = $4.60 / ( 1.14 )^4 = $4.60 / 1.68896 = $2.73

5. PV = $5.43 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^5 = $5.43 / ( 1.14 )^5 = $5.43 / 1.925416 = $2.82

Ronch [10]

Answer:

unrelated diversification

Explanation:

According to my research on different business strategies, I can say that based on the information provided within the question this is an example of unrelated diversification. This is a type of diversification in which a business adds completely new and unrelated product lines to their business and enter new markets. Which is what Marigold Manufacturers Inc is doing since they sell home appliances and decided to enter into the market of women's fashion apparel.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

Assume that you manage a risky portfolio with an expected rate of return of 18% and a standard deviation of 42%. The T-bill rate

amm1812

Answer:

a. Expected Return = 16.20 %

Standard Deviation = 35.70%

b. Stock A = 22.10%

Stock B = 29.75%

Stock C = 33.15%

T-bills = 15%

Explanation:

a. To calculate the expected return of the portfolio, we simply multiply the Expected return of the stock with the weight of the stock in the portfolio.

Thus, the expected return of the client's portfolio is,

w1 * r1 + w2 * r2
85% * 18% + 15% * 6% = 16.20%

The standard deviation of a portfolio with a risky and risk free asset is equal to the standard deviation of the risky asset multiply by its weightage in the portfolio as the risk free asset like T-bill has zero standard deviation.

85% * 42% = 35.70%

b. The investment proportions of the client is equal to his investment in T-bills and risky portfolio. If the risky portfolio investment is considered of the set proportion investment in Stock A, B & C then the 85% investment of the client will be divided in the following proportions,

Stock A = 85% * 26% = 22.10%
Stock B = 85% * 35% = 29.75%
Stock C = 85% * 39% = 33.15%
T-bills = 15%
These all add up to make 100%
