Answer: 2.77

Explanation:

Portfolio Beta is the Weighted Average Beta of all the individual stocks in a portfolio.

Seeing as the other betas and proportions are given, we can plug this into a formula to find out the beta of stock B.

In case you do not see a beta for the U.S. Treasury bills that's fine because beta is a measure of risk and U.S. Treasury bills have NONE so that means that their better is 0.

And if you are wondering what the beta of stock A is, the answer is 1 because that is the beta of the overall market by definition.

Creating a formula therefore we have,

1.75 = 0.17(0) + 0.31(1) + 0.52x

0.52x = 1.75 - 0.31

0.52x = 1.44

x = 2.76923076923

x = 2.77 (2dp)

2.77 is the beta of Stock B.

Answer:

2.53

Explanation:

Stock A beta would be equal to 1

Portfolio beta=Respective betas*Respective weights

1.75=(0.17*0)+(0.31*1)+(0.57*beta of stock B)(Beta of Treasury bills=0)

1.75=0.31+0.57beta of stock B

Hence beta of stock B=(1.75-0.31/0.57

=2.53(Approx)

Rainbow [258]

Answer: Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

An indifference curve is a graphical representation of two goods which reflects all the combination of two goods to be consumed by the individual.

Schwert Corp. shows the following information on its 2019 income statement: sales = $235,000; costs = $147,000; other expenses =
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

a. $62,915

b. $17,000

c. $5,500

d. $2,915

Explanation:

a. The operating cash flow is shown below:

= EBIT + Depreciation - Income tax expense

where,  

EBIT = Sales - cost of good sold - other expenses - depreciation expense  

=  $235,000 - $147,000 - $7,900 - $17,500

= $62,600

And all other items would remain same

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $62,600 + $17,500 - $17,185

= $62,915

b. The computation of the cash flow to creditors is shown below:

= Interest expense - ending balance of long term debt + beginning balance of long term debt  

= $13,500 - (-$3,500)

= $17,000

c. The computation of the cash flow to stockholder is shown below:

= Dividend expense - new equity

= $10,500 - $5,000

= $5,500

d. Computation of the addition to the net working capital is shown below:

The computation of the cash flow from assets = cash flow to creditors + cash flow to stockholders

= $17,000 + $5,500

= $22,500

Now addition to NWC = Operating cash flow - cash flow from assets - net capital spending

= $62,915 - $22,500 - ($20,000 + $17,500)

= $2,915

igomit [66]

Answer:

a. the buyer’s consumer surplus for that good is maximized.

Explanation:

The consumer will purchase up to the moment at whose preference price matches the market price.

Because of the diminished return theory, the following unit (k+1) will have a lower benefit to the consumer thus, it will have purchased only if the price is lower. Therefore, it will not purchase as the market price is the same as the previous unit but the consumer benefit is lower.
