Percival Hygiene has $10 million invested in long-term corporate bonds. This bond portfolio's expected annual rate of return is

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Explanation:

a)We find the portfolio weights first. For a two security portfolio

$sP^2 = x_1^2s_1^2 + 2x_1x_2s_1s_2r_1_2 + x_2^2s_2^2$

$(0.10)^2 = 0 + 0 + x_2^2(0.16)^2$

x2 = 0.625 and x1 = 0.375

Then

rp = x1r1 + x2r2

rp = (0.375 ´ 0.06) + (0.625 ´ 0.14)

= 0.11

= 11.0%

Hence, he can improve the expected rate of return without any change in the risk of the portfolio.

The expected return is:

rp = x1r1 + x2r2

rp = (0.5 *´ 0.09) + (0.5 ´* 0.14)

= 0.115 = 11.5%

$sP^2 = x_1^2s_1^2 + 2x_1x_2s_1s_2r_1_2 + x_2^2s_2^2$

sP2 = (0.5)^2(0.10)^2 + 2*(0.5)(0.5)(0.10)(0.16)(0.10) + (0.5)^2(0.16)^2

sP2 = 0.0097

sP = 0.985 = 9.85%

Hence, he can never perform better by investing equal amount in bond portfolio and index fund. The expected return increases to 11.5% and standard deviation decreases to 9.85%.

Beck Corp. issued 200,000 shares of common stock when it began operations in Year 1 and issued an additional 100,000 shares in Y

Verizon [17]

Answer:

225,000 shares of Beck’s common stock were outstanding

Explanation:

The computation of the outstanding common stock shares is given below:

= Issue of shares + Additional shares - Treasury stock

= 200,000 shares + 100,000 shares - 75,000 shares

= 225,000 shares

The treasury stock decreases the balance of common stock shares so we deduct it. The convertible preferred stock is not a part of outstanding common stock shares so it is not considered in the computation part.
