Answer:

it is very simple and easy to do it.

Explanation:

Answer:

The expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 14%.

Explanation:

The expected rate of return on the market portfolio can be calculated using the following capital asset pricing model (CAPM) formula:

Er = Rf + B[E(Rm) - Rf] ...................... (1)

Where:

Er = Expected rate of return on the market portfolio = ?

Rf = Risk-free rate = 5%

B = Beta = 1

E(Rm) = Market expected rate of return = 14%

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Er = 5 + 1[14 - 5]

Er = 5 + 1[9]

Er = 5 + 9

Er = 14%

Therefore, the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 14%.

Use the starting balance sheet and the list of changes to create an updated balance sheet and to answer the question.

anastassius [24]

Answer: $3,300,000

Explanation:

Accounting formula:

Assets = Equity + Liabilities

Total equity and liabilities on March 31 is:

= Beginning balance - decrease in liabilities + Increase in Equity

= 5,000,000 - 100,000 + 400,000

= $5,300,000

Assets therefore has to be $5,300,000 on the same date.

Assets = New cash balance + Other assets

5,300,000 = (2,200,000 - 200,000) + Other assets

Other assets = 5,300,000 - 2,000,000

= $3,300,000
