kotykmax [81]

Answer:

$332,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Liabilities = $87,000

Common stock = $ 145,000

Revenue = $ 462,000

Expenses = $ 318,000

Dividends = $ 44,000

Total assets = Liabilities + Common stock + Revenue – Expenses – Dividends

= $87,000 + $ 145,000 + $ 462,000 - $ 318,000 - $ 44,000

= $ 694,000 - $ 362,000

= $332,000

Therefore, the amount of Blue Spruce Company’s total assets is $332,000.

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

77.48 units

Explanation:

Data provided in the questions

Annual demand = 395 units

Ordering cost = $38

Holding cost per unit per year = $5

The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:

$= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}$

$= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{395}\times \text{\$38}}{\text{\$5}}}$

= 77.48 units

hence, the economic order quantity is 77.48 units

We simply applied the above formula so that approximate units could come. And it always expressed in units

NARA [144]

Answer:

B) Your portfolio has a beta equal to 1.6, and its expected return is 15%

Explanation:

Since the correlation coefficient between both stocks X and Y is zero, when one stock has an expected return a little higher than 15%, the other stock will have an expected return a little lower than 15%, so both variations basically cancel out each other. So the average expected return for both X and Y will be 15%.
