Answer:
Between 7.8 and 12 Years
Explanation:
The modified duration of a portfolio is defined as a weighted average in the modified duration of an individual bonds. Therefore it will lie between the extreme values of the modified duration of the bonds in portfolio so that the weights are all positive.
In the context, the modified duration lies between 7.8 years and 12 years as the modified duration would always lie between the lowest modified duration and the highest modified duration of any bonds in a portfolio. Therefore the weights are value that will lie between these two years.
Answer:
$1,692
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Number of shares purchased = 100
Cost of stock = $30 per share
Commission = $29
Selling price per share = $45
Commission for selling = $29
Earned dividends = $2.50 per share
Now,
Total Return
= Number of Shares × (Sale Price - cost + Total dividends) - Total Commissions
or
Total Return = 100 × ($45 - $30 + $2.50) - (2 × $29)
or
Total Return = $1750 - $58
or
Total Return = $1,692
Answer:
Return on investment = -0.71%
Explanation:
<em>The return on investment is the sum of the dividends earned and capital gains made during the holding period of the investment. </em>
<em>Dividend is the proportion of the profit made by a company which is paid to shareholders. </em>
<em>Capital gains is another type of the return made on an equity investment as a result of increase in the value of the shares. It is difference between the cost of the share and the value at the time of disposal</em>.
Therefore, we can can compute the return on the investment as follows:
Total Return on investment =
(Capital gain/ loss + dividend )/purchase price × 100
Capital loss = (184 -140) × 120 = - 480
Dividend = 427
Commission = 34 + 39 =-73
Net loss on investment = - 480 - 73 + 427= -126
Return on investment = -126
/(148× 120) = -0.71%
Return on investment = -0.71%
The answer to the question is g=-2
