Answer:

E. The slope of the security market line is equal to the market risk premium

Explanation:

Option A is incorrect because the equity beta is different of two securities though it has same risk level this is because the beta equity is affected by the gearing of the firm

Option B is also incorrect because the beta reflects the risk that is un-diversifiable. Always remember that Capital asset pricing model says that the investor are compensated for the risk that is un-diversifiable which is the business systematic risk.

Option C is also incorrect because the diversifiable risk can be diversified completely by investing in stock of companies of more than 40 industries.

Option D is also incorrect because the lower beta shows lower risk level of the investment and higher risk level indicates higher risk levels.

Option E is correct because the slope indicates the risk premium on the investment and the intercept indicates the risk free investment.

mart [117]

Answer:

<u>Directive.</u>

Explanation:

House's original path-goal theory is based on the theory that the behavior exerted by the leader must be adjusted according to the work environment and the employees, so that there is motivation, satisfaction and improvement in the performance of the employees to achieve of goals.

According to House and Mitchel, there are four styles of leaders:

  1. Directive,
  2. Supportive,
  3. Participative, and
  4. Achievement.

So on this issue, the leadership style that best fits is the directive leader.

In this leadership style, it is the leader who provides the guidelines for the development and execution of tasks, and the coordination of work. The leader provides clear goals and expectations about performance to achieve the expected results.

An investor who was not as astute as he believed invested $276,500 into an account 9 years ago. Today, that account is worth $21
Dimas [21]

Answer:

The annual rate of return is -2.83%

Explanation:

The annual rate can be calculated from the formula FV=PV*(1+r)^N

Where FV is the future value of the investment

PV is the amount invested which is $276,500

N is 9 years

213600=276,500*(1+r)^9

213600/276500=(1+r)^9

divide index on both sides by 9

(213600/276500)^1/9=1+r

(213600/276500)^1/9-1=r

r=-0.02827109

r=-2.83%

Hence the annual rate of return on the investment is -2.83%, which means the investment depleted by 2.83% from initial invested amount of $276,5000 to $213,600 after nine years
