Arbor Systems and Gencore stocks both have a volatility of 33%. Compute the volatility of a portfolio with 50% invested in each
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

<h3>In case of b, c, d ,e volatility is less than that of original stock</h3>

Explanation:

The formula to compute the volatility of a portfolio

=\sqrt{W_1^2\sigma_1^2+W_2^2\sigma_2^2+2W_1W_2\sigma_1\sigma_2*c}

Here,

The standard deviation of the first stock is σ₁

The standard deviation of the second stock is σ₂

The weight of the first stock W₁

The weight of the second stock W₂

The correlation between the stock c

a) If the correlation between the stock is +1

=\sqrt{W_1^2\sigma_1^2+W_2^2\sigma_2^2+2W_1W_2\sigma_1\sigma_2*c}

=\sqrt{(0.5\times0.33)^2+(0.5\times0.33)^2+(2\times(0.5\times 0.33)\times(0.5\times0.33)\times1} \\\\=0.33

Hence, the volatility of the portfolio is 0.33 0r 33%

b) If the correlation between the stock is 0.50

=\sqrt{W_1^2\sigma_1^2+W_2^2\sigma_2^2+2W_1W_2\sigma_1\sigma_2*c}

=\sqrt{(0.5\times0.33)^2+(0.5\times0.33)^2+(2\times(0.5\times 0.33)\times(0.5\times0.33)\times0.5} \\\\=0.29

Hence, the volatility of the portfolio is 0.29 0r 29%

c) If the correlation between the stock is 0.00

=\sqrt{W_1^2\sigma_1^2+W_2^2\sigma_2^2+2W_1W_2\sigma_1\sigma_2*c}

=\sqrt{(0.5\times0.33)^2+(0.5\times0.33)^2+(2\times(0.5\times 0.33)\times(0.5\times0.33)\times0.0} \\\\=0.23

Hence, the volatility of the portfolio is 0.23 0r 23%

d) If the correlation between the stock is -0.50

=\sqrt{W_1^2\sigma_1^2+W_2^2\sigma_2^2+2W_1W_2\sigma_1\sigma_2*c}

=\sqrt{(0.5\times0.33)^2+(0.5\times0.33)^2+(2\times(0.5\times 0.33)\times(0.5\times0.33)\times-0.5} \\\\=0.17

Hence, the volatility of the portfolio is 0.17 or 17%

e) If the correlation between the stock is -1

=\sqrt{W_1^2\sigma_1^2+W_2^2\sigma_2^2+2W_1W_2\sigma_1\sigma_2*c}

=\sqrt{(0.5\times0.33)^2+(0.5\times0.33)^2+(2\times(0.5\times 0.33)\times(0.5\times0.33)\times-1} \\\\=0

Hence, the volatility of the portfolio is 0

<h3>In case of b, c, d ,e volatility is less than that of original stock</h3>

If a competitive firm can sell a bushel of soybeans for $25 and it has an average variable cost of $24 per bushel and the margin
Liula [17]

Answer: reduce output.

Explanation:

In a competitive market, firms do not have control over the price that they sell their goods in the market but they do have control over their costs. It is recommended to produce/ sell goods at a quantity where Marginal Revenue will equal Marginal cost (MR = MC).

In a Competitive Market, Price is the same as Marginal revenue which means that Marginal revenue here is $25 and the Marginal Cost is $26. At this quantity of output, the Marginal Cost is larger than the Marginal revenue.

Company should therefore reduce output to a quantity where Marginal Cost will equal Marginal revenue.

ss7ja [257]

Answer: C.$221.86

Explanation:

Contribution Margin is the difference between the sales price and the variable costs.

Best case scenario of Sales would mean it is the higher amount.

Best case scenario of costs would mean the lower amount.

Best case Sales

= 349 * ( 1 + 3%)

= $359.47

Best Case Variable Cost

= 139 * ( 1 - 1%)

= $137.61

Best Case Contribution Margin

= Best case Sales  - Best Case Variable Cost

= 359.47 - 137.61

= $221.86
