Answer:
8.01%
Explanation:
Expected return on mutual fund = Risk-free rate + Market risk premium*Beta
Expected return on mutual fund = 3% + 7.7%*1
Expected return on mutual fund = 10.70%
Best estimate of the portfolio expected rate of return = Weight of mutual fund*Expected return on mutual fund + Weight of risk-free Treasury bills*Expected return on risk-free Treasury bills
Best estimate of the portfolio expected rate of return = 65%*10.70 + 35%*3
Best estimate of the portfolio expected rate of return = 0.08005
Best estimate of the portfolio expected rate of return = 8.01%
Answer:
The cost per month is increasing at a rate $365.
Explanation:
Differentiation Formula
Given that,
A manufacturer of handcrafted wine racks has determined that the cost to produce x units per month is given by
.
Again given that,
the rate of changing production is 13 unit per month
i.e 
To find the cost per month, we need to find out the value
when production is changing at the rate 13 units per month and the production is 70 units.

Differentiating with respect to t




Plugging 


[ plugging x=70]
=364
[ The unit of c is not given. Assume that the unit of c is dollar.]
The cost per month is increasing at a rate $365.
Answer:
The lending ability will increase by $2.25 billion.
Explanation:
The reserve requirement is given at 25%.
If federal reserve bank buys $3 billion in government securities, the total reserve will increase by $3 billion.
The excess reserve will be
=Increase in total reserve-required reserve
=$3 billion-25% of $3
=$(3 billion- .25*3) billion
=$(3-0.75) billion
=$2.25 billion
Solution :
We calculate the advances form the customer to be reported as the current liability as on Dec. 31, 2009 in the balance sheet as follows :
<u> Particulars </u> <u> Amount ($)</u>
Customer advances the balance Dec 31, 2008 110
Add : advances that is received with 2009 orders is 195
Less : advances applicable to the orders in 2009 -180
Less : advances from orders that are canceled in 2009 <u> -45 </u>
Advances from the customers liability Dec. 31, 2009 80
Therefore, the advance from the customer to be reported in the balance sheet as the current liability is $80.
