Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Value of Yahoo:

= Shares × Price

= 110 shares × $20

= $2,200

Value of General Motors(GM):

= Shares × Price

= 210 shares × $20

= $4,200

Value of Standard and Poorʹs Index Fund (SPY):

= Shares × Price

= 70 shares × $130

= $9,100

Total value = Value of Yahoo + Value of GM + Value of SPY

                   = $2,200 + $4,200 + $9,100

                   = $15,500

Therefore,

Portfolio weight of YHOO:

= Value of YAHOO ÷ Total value

= $2,200 ÷  $15,500

= 0.1419 or 14.19%

Portfolio weight of GM:

= Value of GM ÷ Total value

= $4,200 ÷  $15,500

= 0.2709 or 27.09%

Therefore, the portfolio weight of YHOO and GM are 14.2% (approx) and 27.1% (approx), respectively.

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

b) The property sells in 90 to 120 days

This is not a condition required to define market value.

(2)  Both parties are well informed or well advised, and acting in what they consider their own best interests; (listed as d)

Both parties know the market, they know the characteristics of the real state.

(3)  A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;

Notice the diference with option b. Which is giving an specific duration. Opcion C is not correct.

(4)  Payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and (option c)

The property is being trade for cahs or cash equivalent.

(5)  The price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale.

The transaction only involves the sale, there is isn't any hidden transaction behind

The Justice Department refused to approve a merger between office supplier Staples and office supplier Office Depot, a merger th
artcher [175]

Answer:

The correct answer is A) A market share of over 50% from the combined companies

Explanation:

The Clayton Act of 1914 regulates acquisitions and mergers in the United States. This is the legal source that the Justice Deparment would use to approve or disapprove the merger described in the question. It explicitly forbids mergers that result in over 50% of market share, because it consideres a higher percentage than that (a market share from 50% to 99%) to configurate a monopoly.

The merger in the question would result in a 70% market share, way higher than the legal limit, hence it would be denied by the DOJ.
