Answer:

Sharpen Ratio   =            <u>    Rp  - Rf</u>

                         standard deviation of portfolio

                        =    <u>13.8%  - 3.6%</u>

                                     173.11%

                              =   0.05892

                              = 0.059

workings

Return of portfolio   =   Ra*wa  +  Rb*Wb

                            =  15%*0.6  +  12%*0.4  

                           =   9%  +  4.8%  =  13.8%

Standard deviation of portfolio =  square root of variance

= √ stdA²wa² + stadB²wb² + 2wawbcorrAB

= √(24%*0.6)² +(14%*0.4)²  + 2*0.6*0.4*1.27

=  √207.36% + 31.36% + 0.6096

=  √2.9968

= 1.73

=  173.11%

Over the past four years, the annual percentage returns on large-company stocks were 15, 7, 4, and 18%. For the same time period
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

c. 7.98; .92.

Explanation:

My calculations varied slightly (0.02% and 0.01%), but the error might be a rounding error. Option C is the logical answer since the difference is minimum.

real rate returns from stocks:

15% - 2.8% = 12.2%

7% - 2.8% = 4.2%

4% - 2.8% = 1.2%

18% - 2.8% = 15.2%

average real return = 8.2% arithmetic mean

average real return = 8% geometric mean

real rate returns from US T-bills:

6% - 2.8% = 3.2%

3% - 2.8% = 0.2%

2% - 2.8% = -0.8%

4% - 2.8% = 1.2%

average real return = 0.95% arithmetic mean

average real return = 0.93% geometric mean

Which of the following is a valid criticism of the use of money as a store of value in modern economies?a. annual inflationary l
Serga [27]

Annual inflationary loss of buying power is a valid criticism of the use of money as a store of value in modern economies.

Explanation:

As a result of a highly inflationary reduction in the buying ability of an economy, significant negative economic impacts emerge, particularly rising costs of consumer goods and services, with high-interest rates impacting global markets and lower ratings.

The buying power is the buyer's dollar value of credit to purchase additional stocks and bonds on the retirement account against the already marginal securities. Capacity can also be recognised as the purchasing power of the dollar.

Bennett Company’s high and low level of activity last year was 150,000 units produced in June and 50,000 units produced in Janua
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Total cost= $72,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Bennett Company’s high and low level of activity last year was 150,000 units produced in June and 50,000 units produced in January. Machine maintenance costs were $104,000 in June and $40,000 in January.

We need to use the following formulas:

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit= (104,000 - 40,000) / (150,000 - 50,000)= $0.64 per unit

Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)

FC= 104,000 - (0.64*150,000)= 8,000

Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)

FC= 40,000 - (0.64*50,000)= 8,000

Now, we can calculate the cost of 100,000 units:

Total cost= o.64*100,000 + 8,000= $72,000

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The standard deviation of the returns on the stock is 15.56%(Approx).

Explanation:

Expected Return=Respective return*Respective probability

=(20.4*0.67)+(-12.7*0.33)=9.477%

probability Return probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2

0.67          20.4 0.67*(20.4-9.477)^2=79.93899243

0.33          -12.7 0.33*(-12.7-9.477)^2=162.3003786

Total=242.239371%

Standard deviation=[Total probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2/Total probability]^(1/2)

=15.56%(Approx).
