Answer:

(a) Percentage return = -$14.20 ÷ $92 = -15.43%

(b) Dividend Yield = $2.30 ÷ $92 = 2.50%

Explanation:

Initial price per share= $92.00

Ending share price = $75.50

Capital loss = $75.50 - $92.00  = -$16.50

Dividend = $2.30

Net return = -$16.50 + $2.30 = -$14.20

(a) Percentage return = (-$14.20 ÷ $92) × 100% = -15.43%

(b) Dividend Yield = ($2.30 ÷ $92) × 100% = 2.50%

The market price of a security is $26. Its expected rate of return is 13%. The risk-free rate is 5%, and the market risk premium
DedPeter [7]

The increase in stock risk has lowered its value by 16.09%.

<h3>What does market price mean?</h3>
  • The price at which a good or service can currently be bought or sold is known as the market price.
  • The forces of supply and demand determine the market price of a good or service; the price at which the quantity supplied and demanded are equal is the market price.

<h3>What is current price and market price?</h3>
  • Market value is another name for the current price. It is the last traded price for a share of stock or any other security.

According to the question:

  • If the security's correlation coefficient with the market portfolio doubles (with all other variables such as variances unchanged), then beta, and therefore the risk premium, will also double. The current risk premium is:  13% - 5% = 8%

The new risk premium would be 16%, and the new discount rate for the security would be: 16% + 5% = 21%

If the stock pays a constant perpetual dividend, then we know from the original data that the dividend (D) must satisfy the equation for the present value of a perpetuity:

Price = Dividend/Discount rate.

26 = D/0.13.

D =26 x 0.13.

D = $3.38.

At the new discount rate of 21%, the stock would be worth:

$3.38/0.21.

= $16.09.

The increase in stock risk has lowered its value by 16.09%.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Direct material quantity variance= $992 unfavorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard quantiy= 8kg

Standard cost= $0.8 per kilogram

Production= 870 unit

8,200 kilograms of the raw material was purchased for $6,888.

To calculate the material quantity variance, we need to use the following formula:

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Standard quantity= 870*8= 6,960kg

Direct material quantity variance= (6,960 - 8,200)*0.8

Direct material quantity variance= $992 unfavorable
