Answer:

65% of the portfolio is invested in stock.

Explanation:

The weight of stock is assumed to be x.  

Then, the Weight of Risk-Free Stock will be 1 - x.

Beta\ of\ Portfolio\ =\ Weight\ of\ Stock\ \times\ Beta\ of\ Stock\ +\ Weight\ of\ Risk\ free\ asset\ \times\ Beta\ of\ Risk\ Free\ Asset

Beta of Portfolio =x\ \times\ 1.17\ +\ [\ ( 1\ -\ x)\ \times\ 0]

0.76 = 1.17 x

x = 0.76 / 1.17

x =0.64957

x = 64.957%

So, 65% of the portfolio is invested in stock.

Assume that a consumer purchases a combination of products Y and Z and that the MUy/Py = 30/2 and MUz/Pz = 45/3. To maximize uti
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Make no change in Y and Z.

Explanation:

It was assumed that consumer purchases the combination of two goods, Y and Z.

\frac{MU_{Y} }{P_{Y}}= \frac{30}{2} = 15

\frac{MU_{Z}}{P_{Z}}=\frac{45}{3}=15

For maximizing the utility of the consumer, the ratio of marginal utilities must be equal to the price ratio of the products.

We can see that the ratio of marginal utilities is equal to the price ratio of the products. Hence, the consumer should not make any changes to the combination of products.

aalyn [17]

Hey There!:

Sample Mean = 4.4823

SD = 0.1859

Sample Size (n) = 7

Standard Error (SE) = SD/root(n) = 0.0703

alpha (a) = 1-0.99 = 0.01

t(a/2, n-1 ) =  3.7074

Margin of Error (ME) =  t(a/2,n-1)x SE = 0.2606

99% confidence interval is given by:

Sample Mean +/- (Margin of Error)

4.4823 +/- 0.2606 = (4.222 , 4.743)

Hope this helps!
