Answer:

Total value attained in 20 years = Simple interest of 20 years on the Principal amount + Principal amount invested

<em>Simple interest = Principal amount invested * Interest rate * Time Period</em>

Simple interest earned during 20 years =  X * 0.08 i.e. 8% * 20 ( Assume principal invested as <em>X)</em>

= 1.6 X

Hence,

$ 600,000 = 1.6 X + X

2.6 X = 600,000

X = 600,000 / 2.6  

= $ 230,769 (Approx.)

<em>Hence, amount Sara should put in the Savings Accounts now =  $ 230,769 (Approx.)</em>

Lilit [14]

Answer:

9.62%

Explanation:

Re = Rf + (B x Rp)

Re = cost of equity = 9.775%

Rf = risk free rate = 4%

B = beta = 1.05

Rp = risk premium = ?

Rp = (Re - Rf) B = (9.775% - 4%)/1.05 = 5.5%

Re portfolio = Rf + {Rp x [(B₁ x $5/$5.5) + (B₂ x $0.5/$5.5)]}

Re portfolio = 4% + {5.5% x [(1.05 x $5/$5.5) + (0.75 x $0.5/$5.5)]}

Re portfolio = 4% + {5.5% x [0.9545 + 0.0682]}

Re portfolio = 4% + 5.6249% = 9.62%
