Answer:
1) Expected return is 12.12%
2) Portfolio beta is 1.2932
Explanation:
1)
The expected return can be calculated by multiplying the return in a particular state of economy by the probability of that state occuring.
The expected return = (0.32 * -0.11) + 0.68 * 0.23
Expected return = 0.1212 or 12.12%
b)
The portfolio beta is the the systematic riskiness of the portfolio that is unavoidable. The portfolio beta is the weighted average of the individual stock betas that form up the portfolio.
Thus the portfolio beta will be,
Portfolio beta = 0.33 * 1.02 + 0.2 * 1.08 + 0.37 * 1.48 + 0.1 * 1.93
Portfolio beta = 1.2932
Answer:
1. Neither ; 2. Consumer Surplus ; 3. Producer Surplus
Explanation:
Consumer Surplus is the difference between a good's price paid by consumer, & maximum price the consumer is willing to pay for the good.
Producer Surplus is the difference between a good's price received by a seller, & minimum price at which the seller is willing to sell the good.
1. Willing to pay $209 for watch, buyer willing to sell at $196, no trade as price ceiling at $190 : It illustrates neither concept as transaction has not actually occurred, so no price established.
2. Willing to pay $39 for sweater, purchased it for $32 : It illustrates 'Consumer Surplus' case = $7 , as it shows difference between maximum willingness to pay by buyer ($39) & the actual buy price ($32)
3. Willing to sell laptop at $190, sold it at $199 : It illustrates 'Producer Surplus' case = $9 , as it shows difference between minimum willingness to sell price ($190) & actual sale price ($199)
Answer:
$78,375
Explanation:
Actual HVAC usage = 500 + (500 × 10%) = 500 + 50 = 550
Total HVAC income before credit loss = 550 × $150 = $82,500
Total HVAC income before credit loss = $82,500 - ($82,500 × 5%) = $82,500 - $4,125 = $78,375
Therefore, the approximate heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) revenue the landlord will realize is $78,375.
is a person who benefits from something without expending effort or paying for it.
