Answer:

1. Actual Hours Spent on tune ups = 471.25

2. Actual Rate per hour = $5.47

Explanation:

Provided Information

Standard Hours = 2

Standard Rate = $6.40

Standard Cost = $12.80

Labor Rate Variance = (Standard Rate - Actual Rate) \times Actual Hours = $440 F

Labor Spending Variance = (Standard Hours - Actual Hours) \times Standard Rate = $392 U

With labor Spending Variance we can compute actual hours

- $392 = (2 \times 210 - AH) \times $6.40

- $392 = (410 - AH) \times $6.40

-$392/$6.40 = 410 - AH

- 61.25 = 410 - AH

AH = 410 + 61.25 = 471.25

Putting values of Actual Hours in Labor rate Variance we have

$440 = ($6.40 - AR) \times 471.25

$440/471.25 = $6.40 - AR

$0.934 + AR = $6.40

AR = $6.40 - $0.934 = $5.47

Stock A has an expected return of 17.8 percent, and Stock B has an expected return of 9.6 percent. However, the risk of Stock A
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

13.70%

Explanation:

The expected return of a portfolio is said to be the weighted average of the returns of the individual components,

Given that:

Stock A has an expected return = 17.8%

Stock B has an expected return = 9.6%

the risk of Stock A as measured by its variance is 3 times that of Stock B.

If the two stocks are combined equally in a portfolio;

Then :

The weight of both stocks will be 50% : 50 %

So the  portfolio's expected return can be determined as follows:

Expected return for stock A  = 50% × 17.8%

Expected return = 0.50 × 17.8%

Expected return = 8.9 %

Expected return for stock B = 50 % × 9.6 %

Expected return for stock B = 0.50 × 9.6%

Expected return for stock B = 4.8%

Expected return of the portfolio = summation of the expected return for both stocks

Expected return of the portfolio = 8.9 %  + 4.8%

Expected return of the portfolio =  13.70%

Whitepunk [10]

Answer: 97.99

Explanation:

The one-year forward rate that an investor would be indifferent between the U.S. and Japanese investments will be:

= Spot rate × (1 + Japanese rate / 1 + U.S rate)

= 101 × (1 + 1% / 1 + 4.1%)

= 101 × [(1 + 0.01) / (1 + 0.041)]

= 101 × (1.01/1.041)

= 101 × 0.9702209

= 97.99

Answer:

1.d)1 22/32

2. b)45/64

3. c)3 1/3

4. a)98.19

5. b)5%

Explanation:

1. 54/32 converted to a mixed number is ________.a) 22/32 b)1.6875 c) 1/38 d)1 22/32

Mixed number is another way of writing improper fraction

54/32= 1 (54 - 32)/32

= 1 22/32

Therefore, option d) 1 22/32 is the correct option

2. The product of one and four thirty-seconds and twenty thirty-seconds is ________. a)1 24/32 b)45/64 c)56/32

d)720

One and four thirty-seconds = 1 4/32

Twenty thirty-seconds = 20/32

= 1 4/32 × 20/32

= 36/32 × 20/32

= 9/8 × 5/8

= 45/64

Therefore, option b)45/64 is the correct option

3. One and eight thirty-seconds divided by twelve thirty-seconds is ________. a)480/1024 b)20/1024 c)3 1/3 d)3 40/32

One and eight thirty-seconds = 1 8/32

Twelve thirty-seconds = 12/32

= 1 8/32 ÷ 12/32

= 40/32 ÷ 12/32

= 40/32 × 32/12

= 40/12

= 3 4/12

= 3 1/3

Therefore, option c) 3 1/3 is the correct option

4. A u.S. Treasury bond is trading at 98 and 6/32. Convert this price to its decimal form. a)98.19 b)96.63 c)9/86 d)98.06

98 and 6/32 = 98 + 6/32

We convert 6/32 to decimal

= 98 + 0.1875

= 98.1875

≈ 98.19

Therefore, Option a is the correct option

5. What is the percentage increase if the s&p 500 index is currently trading at 1,100 and rises 55 points? a)4.5% b)5% c)55% d)5.5%

Percentage increase = Increase/ Orginal amount × 100

Increase = 55 points

Original amount = 1,100

Percentage Increase = 55/1100 × 100

= 0.05 × 100

= 5%

Therefore, option b)5% is the correct option
