Answer:

Beta of Stock C is 1.6

correct option is d. 1.6

Explanation:

given data

portfolio beta = 1.2

stock A beta = 0.9

stock B beta = 1.1

to find out

beta of stock C

solution

we will apply here Portfolio Beta equation that is express as

Portfolio Beta = ( Weight of Stock A × Beta of Stock A ) + ( Weight of Stock B   × Beta of Stock B ) +  ( Weight of Stock C × Beta of Stock C )    ......................1

here weight for each stock = \frac{1}{3}

put here value we will get

1.2 =  ( \frac{1}{3} × 0.9 ) + ( \frac{1}{3} × 1.1 ) +  ( \frac{1}{3} × Beta of Stock C )

solve it we will get

Beta of Stock C = 1.599

so Beta of Stock C is 1.6

and correct option is d. 1.6

A process has low fixed costs and high variable costs. It is currently capacity-constrained. Will the impact of an efficiency im
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Small

Explanation:

Fixed costs are the costs that do not change when output level changes, while variable costs are costs that change as output quantity changes.

When a production process is capacity constrained, it implies that there is a factor that does not allow it to produce more output. Examples of such factors are minor bottlenecks, constrained designs and resources, and others.

A process is said to be efficient when it can avoid waste of resources in producing desired output.

Efficiency improvement therefore occurs when more output can be produced with less resources.

In the question, given that the process is currently capacity-constrained, efficiency improvement will result in producing more output at higher costs because of high variable costs despite that the process has low fixed costs.

As a result, the impact of an efficiency improvement will be small because producing more output will result in incurring higher cost due to high variable costs that change as quantity of output changes. That is, the impact of efficiency improvement will be small because high variable costs with low fixed cost will result in higher production cost.

Answer:

The equilibrium number of firms is 20.

Q = SH × b

   = 2,400 × (1/20)

   = 2,400 × 0.05

   = 120

Also given, Q = S / n

                120 = 2,400 / n

                  n = 20

The current value of a property is $60,000. For real estate tax purposes, the property is assessed at 30 percent of its current
Damm [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Current value, C = $60000

Assessed value, A = 30 percent of its current value

= 30% × C

Equalisation factor, E = 1.25

The tax rate is $4 per $100 of assessed valuation.

Assessed value, A = 30/100 × 60000

= $18000

Total assessed valuation = assessed value × E

= $18000 × 1.25

= $22500

Tax rate of $4/$100 × assessed valuation

Tax amount = tax rate × assessed valuation

= ($4 × $22500)/$100

= $900
