Answer:

The beta of the stock must be = 1.315 (approx).

Explanation:

Considering the following formula, we get:

expected return = 16

Risk free rate = 6.4

Market risk premium = 7.3

expected return=risk-free rate+beta* market risk premium

hence

16 = 6.4 + beta * 7.3

hence beta=(16 - 6.4)/7.3  =1.315(approx).

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Fredonia Barber Shop

a. Variable costs per haircut = $4.40

   Total monthly fixed costs = $8,910

b. Break-even point in units = 1,350

Break-even point in sales dollars = $14,850

Net income with 1,670 haircuts = $2,120

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Fixed costs:

Wages of barbers per month =    $6,900 ($1,380 * 5)

Manager's allowance per month = $535

Advertising per month =                 $270

Rent per month =                           $1,010

Utilities per month =                        $160

Magazines per month =                   $35

Total fixed costs per month =     $8,910

Ivanhoe currently charges $11 per haircut.

Variable costs per haircut:

Commission per haircut =       $3.75

Barber supplies per haircut = $0.50

Utilities per haircut =                $0.15

Total variable costs per unit   $4.40

Contribution margin per haircut = $6.60 ($11 - $4.40)

Contribution margin ratio = 0.6

Break-even point in units = $8,910/$6.60 = 1,350

Break-even point in sales dollars = $8,910/0.6 = $14,850

Net income assuming 1,670 haircuts for a month:

Sales revenue = $18,370 ($11 * 1,670)

Variable costs =     7,340 ($4.40 * 1,670)

Contribution       $11,030

Fixed costs            8,910

Net income         $2,120
