Assume that you hold a well-diversified portfolio that has an expected return of 11.0% and a beta of 1.20. You are in the process of buying 1,000 shares of Alpha Corp at $10 a share and adding it to your portfolio. Alpha has an expected return of 21.5% and a beta of 1.70. The total value of your current portfolio is $90,000. What will the expected return and beta on the portfolio be after the purchase of the Alpha stock? Do not round your intermediate calculations.
Old portfolio return
11.0%
Old portfolio beta
1.20
New stock return
21.5%
New stock beta
1.70
% of portfolio in new stock = $ in New / ($ in old + $ in new) = $10,000/$100,000=
10%
New expected portfolio return = rp = 0.1 × 21.5% + 0.9 × 11% =
12.05%
New expected portfolio beta = bp = 0.1 × 1.70 + 0.9 × 1.20 =
1.25

Answer:
The answer is c. present value index
Explanation:
Present value index is the ratio decided by dividing net present value of the project by its require initial net cash outflows.
Once having constraint on selecting investment with positive NPV to be made due to lack of fund, a firm's usually use Present value index for further decision making.
The investment with higher present value index shows that it generates more net cash flow or in other words, more efficient and requires less initial cash outflow, and thus usually be chosen over the other ones with lower present value index.
Answer:
D)
Explanation:
This is the case unless the registered representative contributes capital proportionate to his sharing percentage and receives written approval of the principal. This is because the MSRB clearly prohibits this, but if the registered representative opens a joint account with the customer (granted the customer approves), and shares in both the gains and losses of the account with a proportionate capital contribution, then both are entering into the same risk and are allowed to share in the gains and losses. This is as long as the principal provides written approval.
Answer: 0.000903
Explanation:
Expected return is the sum of the probability that the other returns will happen.
= (13% * 83%) + (5% * 17%)
= 10.79 % + 0.85%
= 11.64%
Variance = ((Return during boom - Expected return)²*probability of boom) + ((Return during recession - Expected Return)²*probability of recession)
Variance = ((13% -11.64%)² * 83%) + (5% - 11.64%)² * 17%)
= 0.0001535168 + 0.0007495232
= 0.000903
