Answer and Explanation:
Given:
For portfolio A
Expected return of 12%
beta = 0.5
Risk premium for A = ?
For portfolio B
Expected return of 13%
beta = 0.4
Risk premium for B = ?
Risk-free rate of return = 5%
Computation:
For portfolio A
12% = 5% + (0.5 × risk premium for A)
risk premium for A = 14%
For portfolio B
13% = 5% + (0.4 × risk premium for B)
risk premium for B = 20%

Answer: cost ratio
Explanation: The terms of trade must be higher (graphically to the right) of a nation's own production cost ratio. The production cost ratio allows small-scale manufacturers to determine their cost more accurately as well as control known cost parameters and is a method that can be adapted and applied to any business.
In a multi-product manufacturing firm, the production cost ratio is necessary for accurate compilation and allocation of production costs to each category of product especially when both the Production Time and the Production Runs are not the same and/or when fixed labor, overhead and other costs are drawn from the same pool. When the ratio is not applied results in a skewed allocation of production costs. This in turn can affect the business as it becomes difficult to ascertain the products whose production are more profitable to the business.
Answer:
Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act
Explanation:
The Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act (GLBA), also known as the Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999, (enacted November 12, 1999) is an act of the 106th United States Congress (1999–2001). It repealed part of the Glass–Steagall Act of 1933, removing barriers in the market among banking companies, securities companies and insurance companies that prohibited any one institution from acting as any combination of an investment bank, a commercial bank, and an insurance company. With the bipartisan passage of the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act, commercial banks, investment banks, securities firms, and insurance companies were allowed to consolidate. Furthermore, it failed to give to the SEC or any other financial regulatory agency the authority to regulate large investment bank holding companies. The legislation was signed into law by President Bill Clinton.
