Olenka [21]

Answer: The one day rate of return on the stock is 1.49%

We arrive at the answer in the following manner:

First we need to calculate yesterday's and today's index values.

For that we need to find weights of each day based on market capitalization.

$Market Capitalization _{ a stock} = Market Price * No .of outstanding shares$

The weight of a company in the index is calculated by dividing the market capitalization of a company by the total market capitalization of all the companies whose shares are a part of the index.

$Weight_{Company A} =\frac{Mkt Cap of company A}{Total Market cap}$

Then, we multiply the share price of each company with their respective weights and find the total to arrive at the index value for one day.

Yesterday's Index Value

Stock Price No. of shares Mkt Cap Weight Weight*Price

A 12 600000 7200000 0.25 2.96 (0.25*12)

B 20 500000 10000000 0.34 6.85(0.34*20)

C 60 200000 12000000 0.41 24.66 (0.41*60)

Total 29200000 1.00 34.47

We calculate the weight for stock A as follows:

$Weight_{A} =\frac{72,00,000}{2,92,00,000} = 0.2466 = 0.25$

We calculate the weights of the remaining stocks in a similar manner.

Please note that the sum total of all weights must add up to 1.

The sum total of the last column (Price * Weight) is yesterday's index value.

We repeat the same steps with today's market price to arrive at today's index value.

Today's index Value

Stock Price No. of shares Mkt Cap Weight Weight*Price

A 16 600000 96,00,000 0.31 4.95 (0.31*16)

B 18 500000 90,00,000 0.29 5.23 (0.29*18)

C 62 200000 1,24,00,000 0.40 24.80(0.40*62)

Total 3,10,00,000 1.00 34.98

One-day Rate of Return

We can calculate the one day rate of return on the index as follows:

$Rate of return = [\frac{(Today's index value - Yesterday's index value}{Yesterday's index value}) * 100$

$Rate of Return = ( \frac{34.98 - 34.47}{34.47}) * 100$

$Rate of return = (\frac{0.51}{34.47}) *100$

Rate of return = 0.01494 or 1.49%

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Option (a) $372.60

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Number of days during which the seller occupied the house = 136 days

Answer:

C. Stay Open because Shutting Down would be More Expensive

Explanation:

Although it is quite obvious that in the short-run the business is not breaking even, based on the available options, staying open will be the best current course of action. Staying open and seeing if the trend of things change in coming fiscal years or financial periods will be better than shutting down.

Shutting down takes alot of processes that are quite expensive. Some of the processes include

The Decision to Close
File dissolution documents
Cancel registrations, permits, licenses, and business names
Comply with employment and labor laws
Resolve financial obligations
Maintain adequate records

These processes are expensive and since the business does not know what is causing the inability to cover its entire costs, it should investigate and find ways of increasing its total revenue to cover its entire costs before deciding to shut down completely.

a. Shut Down- Shutting Down is More Expensive

b. Exit the Industry- There isn't enough information to know exactly why the business is not making a profit
