Answer: Williamson industries would have obtained $7.78 billion in sales
Explanation: According to the question, the company is having a total of $2 billion in fixed assets. The fixed assets are currently operating at 90% (0.9) of its total capacity. At his level, the company is able to achieve a sales figure of $7 billion. The implication is as follows;
Fixed assets (at 100%) = 2 billion
Fixed assets (at 90%) = 2 * 0.9
Fixed assets (at 90%) = 1.8
If the company utilizes $1.8 billion to achieve a $7 billion sales figure, then operating at full capacity (100%) would yield the following;
7/x = 90/100
(Where x equals sales level at 100% capacity)
7/x = 0.9
Cross multiply
x = 7/0.9
x = 7.7777...
x ≈ 7.78
Therefore, if Williamson Industries had been operating at full capacity, it would have obtained a sales level of $7.78 billion
Answer: Common and Preferred Stock Purchasers
Explanation:
Answer: 2.77
Explanation:
Portfolio Beta is the Weighted Average Beta of all the individual stocks in a portfolio.
Seeing as the other betas and proportions are given, we can plug this into a formula to find out the beta of stock B.
In case you do not see a beta for the U.S. Treasury bills that's fine because beta is a measure of risk and U.S. Treasury bills have NONE so that means that their better is 0.
And if you are wondering what the beta of stock A is, the answer is 1 because that is the beta of the overall market by definition.
Creating a formula therefore we have,
1.75 = 0.17(0) + 0.31(1) + 0.52x
0.52x = 1.75 - 0.31
0.52x = 1.44
x = 2.76923076923
x = 2.77 (2dp)
2.77 is the beta of Stock B.
