Answer:

Stock R more beta than Stock S = 4.2%

Explanation:

given data

Stock R beta = 1.8

Stock S beta = 0.75

expected rate of return = 9% = 0.09

risk-free rate = 5% = 0.05

solution

we get here Required Return

Required Return (Re) = risk-free rate + ( expected rate of return - risk-free rate ) beta  ...........1

Required Return (Re) = 0.05 + ( 0.09 - 0.05 ) B

Required Return (Re) =

so here

Stock R = 0.05 + ( 0.09 - 0.05 ) 1.8

Stock R = 0.122  = 12.2 %

and

Stock S = 0.05 + ( 0.09 - 0.05 ) 0.75

Stock S =  0.08 = 8%

so here more risky stock is R and here less risky stock is S

Stock R is more beta than the Stock S.

Stock R more beta Stock S =  12.2 % - 8%

Stock R more beta Stock S = 4.2%

Gables purchased used Mercedes from a German company. The cars were built for the German market and met its safety and pollution
Mazyrski [523]

Answer: (E) none of the other choices

Explanation:

None of the options are correct in the above question.

The USA extends Most Favoured Nation Status to most countries in the world including Germany so that would not be a reason for the car's not to pass through customs.

The cars could indeed be a threat to national security. Just because they come from a safe country does not mean that they were not tampered with. They need to be properly inspected.

They are indeed a source of competition for US automakers but that would be no reason to stop them. Perhaps tariffs could be applied on them but they will not be stopped.

There is no provision in US Customs practices that prohibits the importation of used cars solely because they are used cars therefore it will not be a reason to halt the car's going through customs.

None of the options are therefore correct.
