Answer:

a) Portfolio ABC's expected return is 10.66667%.

Explanation:

Some information is missing:

Stock                Expected         Standard             Beta

                         return              deviation

A                            10%                 20%                 1.0

B                            10%                  10%                 1.0

C                            12%                  12%                 1.4

The expected return or portfolio AB = (1/2 x 10%) + (1/2 x 10%) = 10% (it is the same as the required rate for stock A or B)

The expected return or portfolio ABC = (weight of stock A x expected return of stock A) +  (weight of stock B x expected return of stock B) + (weight of stock C x expected return of stock C) = (1/3 x 10%) + (1/3 x 10%) + (1/3 x 12%) = 3.333% + 3.333% + 4% = 10.667% <u>THIS IS CORRECT</u>

Options B, C, D and E are wrong.

Imagine that you own a property that is exactly 2.2 acres large. You want to sell your property, but your realtor tells you that
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

8,000 m²

Explanation:

you must first change the size of your lot from acres to square miles = 2.2 acres / 640 acres per square miles = 0.0034375 square miles

now we can convert to square kilometers = 0.0034375 miles x 2.56 square kilometers per square miles 0.0055 square kilometers

there are 1,000,000 m²´per km², so you have 0.0088 km² x 1,000,000 = 8,800 m²

On January 10, Chen Co. issued an $80,000, 6%, 90-day note payable to Rao Co. Using a 360-day year, what is the total interest e
Yanka [14]

Answer:

d. $1,200

Explanation:

The computation of the interest expense is shown below:

= Principal × rate of interest × number of days ÷ (total number of days in a year)

= $80,000× 6% × (90 days ÷ 360 days)

= $1,200

We simply apply the simple interest formula

Since the number of days and the total number of days are given so we considered the same for the computation part.

tester [92]
This shift in demand was likely the result of the improved technology of MP3 players.
Improved technology brought improved quality of MP3 players, which meant that more people were interested in buying them. MP3 players are far more convenient than CD players, because they are smaller, more easily portable, and overall better.
