Mike says, "The possibility that my house may burn isa pure risk for me, but if I buy insurance, it is a speculativerisk for the

insurance company." Do you agree? Why or

Answer:

I agree with Mike because pure risks involve only possible losses. Since he owns his house, the possibility of it burning down would represent only a loss to him.

But if he buys insurance, he will pay an insurance premium which means that if the house burns down, the company will lose money, but if the hose doesn't burn down, the insurance company will make a profit. This represents speculative risk because the possibility of a gain and a loss exist.

Stock J has a beta of 1.26 and an expected return of 13.46 percent, while Stock K has a beta of .81 and an expected return of 10
Oxana [17]

Answer:

J = 0.422

K = 0.58

Explanation:

When a portfolio is said to have risk that is equal to market, this means that the beta is equal to 1.

Let us define the weight of stock J = x

Let us define the Weight of stock K = (1-x)

To get the The Beta of portfolio = (x*1.26) + ((1-x)*0.81) = 1

When we open the brackets,

1.26x + 0.81 - .81x = 1

1.26x-0.81x = 1-0.81

0.45x = 0.19

To get x we divide through by 0.45

X = 0.422

Therefore the Weight of stock J = 0.422

Then the Weight of stock K = 1 - 0.422 = 0.578

Approximately 0.58

Kaiser Industries has bonds on the market making annual payments, with 14 years to maturity, a par value of $1,000, and selling
9966 [12]

Answer:

The Coupon rate is 11.66%

Explanation:

Yield to maturity is the annual rate of return that an investor receives if a bond bond is held until the maturity.

Face value = F = $1,000

Selling price = P = $1,382.01

Number of payment = n = 14 years

Bond Yield = 7.5%

The coupon rate can be calculated using following formula

Yield to maturity = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ (F + P ) / 2 ]

7.5% = [ C + ( $1,000 - 1,382.01 ) / 14 ] / [ ( $1,000 + $1,382.01 ) / 2 ]

7.5% = [ C - $27.29 ] / $1,191

7.5% x $1,191 = C - $27.29

$89.33 = C - $27.29

C = $89.33 + $27.29 = $116.62

Coupon rate = $116.62 / $1,000 = 0.11662 = 11.66%
