You own a portfolio that has a total value of $215,000 and it is invested in Stock D with a beta of .86 and Stock E with a beta
babunello [35]

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.

The market capitalization treasure on the stock of flex steel company is 12%. the expected ROE is 13% and the expected EPS are 3
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

a. ROE (r) = 13% = 0.13

EPS = $3.60

Expected dividend (D1) = 50% x $3.60 = $1.80

Plowback ratio (b) = 50% = 0.50

Cost of equity (ke) = 12% = 0.12

Growth rate = r x b

Growth rate = 0.13 x 0.50 = 0.065

Po= D1/Ke-g

Po = $1.80/0.12-0.065

Po = $1.80/0.055

Po = $32.73

P/E ratio = <u>Current market price per share</u>

                  Earnings per share

P/E ratio = <u>$32.73</u>

                 $3.60

P/E ratio = 9.09        

b.  ER(S) = Rf + β(Rm - Rf)

    ER(S) = 5 + 1.2(13 - 5)

    ER(S) = 5 + 9.6

    ER(S) = 14.6%

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     

Explanation:

In the first part of the question, there is need to calculate the expected dividend, which is dividend pay-our ratio of 50% multiplied by earnings per share. We also need to calculate the growth rate, which is plowback ratio multiplied by ROE. Then, we will calculate the current market price, which equals expected dividend divided by the difference between return on stock (Ke) and growth rate. Finally, the price-earnings ratio is calculated as current market price per share divided by earnings per share.

In the second part of the question, Cost of equity (return on stock) is a function of risk-free rate plus beta multiplied by market risk-premium. Market risk premium is market return minus risk-free rate.

Beball camp example covered in the class, let's assume the segment size is 9000, price per participant is $90, frequency is 1, v
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is D. About 1.37%</u>

Explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Segment size = 9,000

Number of participants in the camp = x

Total Fixed Cost (TFC) = $ 9,000  

Variable Cost per Person = $ 5  

Price per Person = $ 90

Profit = $ 1,500

2. Based on the assumption provided above, what percentage of the segment should participate if the program wants to make $1500 profit?

We can calculate the variable cost, this way:

Total Variable Cost = Variable cost per person * Number of participants

Total Variable Cost = $ 5 * x

Total Variable Cost = $ 5x

We can calculate the total cost of the program, this way:

Total Cost of the program = Total Variable cost + Total Fixed Cost  

Total Cost of the program = $ 5x+ $ 9,000

Total cost of the program = $ 9,000 + 5x

We can calculate the revenue of the program, this way:

Total revenue of the program = Price per person * Number of participants + Profit

Total revenue of the program = $ 90 * x + $ 1,500

Total revenue of the program = $ 90x + $ 1,500

For Break-even:

Total Variable cost + Total Fixed Cost = Price per person * Number of participants

Replacing with the values we know and solving for x:

9,000 + 5x =  90x

5x - 90x = - 9,000  (Like terms)

-85x = -9,000

x =  -9,000/-85

x = 106 (rounding to the next whole)

For $ 1,500 of profits:

Number of participants at break-even + Profits/Price per participant

106 + 1,500/90 = 106 + 16.7 = 123

123/1,500 = 0.0137 = 1.37% (Rounding to two decimal places)

<u>The correct answer is D. About 1.37%</u>
