Answer:

18.80%

Explanation:

Data given

Risk free rate = 4%

Beta = 1.85

Market return = 12%

The computation of rate of return is shown below:-

Using CAPM

Rate of Return = Risk free rate + Beta × (Market return- Risk free rate)

= 4% + 1.85 × (12% - 4%)

= 4% + 1.85 × 8%

= 4% + 14.8%

= 18.80%

Therefore for computing the rate of return we simply applied the above formula.

yarga [219]

Answer:

Mark will have at the end of six years the amount of $25,865.74

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

First investment = 2500

Investment increasing at rate of 10%

Interest rate = 13%

t=6 years

Present value is given by formula = C * [((1+g)^n/(1+i)^n) - 1 ] / (g-i)

C is first value = 2,500

g is increase in investment = 0.10

i is intrest rate = 0.13

n is no of years = 6

Putting values into the equation

P = 2500* [((1+ 0.10)^6/(1+0.13)^6) - 1 ] / (0.10-0.13)  1.771561    2.08195

P = 2500* [((1.10)^6/(1.13)^6) - 1 ] / (-0.03)

P = 2500* [0.8509142870866 - 1 ] / (-0.03)

P = 2500* (-0.14908571)/ (-0.03)

P = 2500* 4.9695236

P=$12,423.809

Future value = P*(1+i)^t

= $12,423.809 *(1+0.13)^6

= $25,865.74

Mark will have at the end of six years the amount of $25,865.74

Indicate which activities of Stockton Corporation violated the rights of a stockholder who owned one share of common stock
uysha [10]

Stockton Corporation violated the rights of a stockholder who owned one share of common stock by paying the stockholder a smaller dividend per share than another common stockholder or rejecting the stockholder's sale of stock on an organized exchange and the stockholder's request to vote via proxy because she was home sick.

<h3>What are the reasons for violation?</h3>

A shareholder is a person who purchases shares in a firm that is publicly traded. They are known as owners and are qualified to receive dividends. Dividends represent a percentage of income.

Dividends paid to common shareholders are equal for all.

Greater preference is given to preferred shareholders than to regular stockholders.

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

how much did Pat invest at 10 percent and how much at 8 percent?

2200 10%

 800  8%

Explanation:

I=C*%I*T

I=C1*0,08*1+C2*0,10*1

3000=C1+C2

C1=3000-C2

256=(3000-C2)*0,08+C2*0,10

256=240-0,08C2+O,10C2

16=0,02C2

C2=800

C1=2200

I=2200*0,1= 176

I=800*0,08=80
