Suppose that the equation for the SML is Y = 0.05 + 0.07X, where Y is the average expected rate of return, 0.05 is the vertical

intercept, 0.07 is the slope, and X is the risk level as measured by beta.What is the risk free interest rate for this SML?What is the average expected rate of return at a beta of 1.5?What is the value of beta at an average expected rate of return of 7 percent?

Answer:

Risk free interest rate is 5%

Y is 15.5% at a Beta of 1.5

X is 0.29 when Y is 7%

Explanation:

Risk free interest is 0.05 which 5% as given in the equation

The average expected return is given by Y

Y=0.05+0.07X

Since Beta is the same as X, when equals 1.5,Y is calculated thus

Y=0.05+0.07(1.5)

Y=0.05+0.105

Y=0.155

Y=15.5%

The value of Beta at an average return of 7% is computed thus:

7%=0.05+0.07X

where X is the unknown

0.07=0.05+0.07X

0.07-0.05=0.07X

0.02=0.07X

X=0.02/0.07

X=0.29

The scenario  illustrates that the Beta, which is the risk of investment and the Y , the expected average return are positively correlated.

Sophie [7]

Answer:

$10,950 Unfavorable

Explanation:

For computation of flexible budget variance for total costs first we need to find out the standard cost which is shown below:-

Standard cost = (Sold connectors × budgeted variable costs) + Fixed costs per month

= (77 × $150) + $5,500

= $11,550 + $5,500

= $17,050

Flexible budget variance for total costs = Actual cost - Standard cost

= $28,000 - $17,050

= $10,950 Unfavorable

Greeley [361]

Answer:

option b is correct

current stock price is $42.64

Explanation:

given data

dividend = $1.75

growth rate = 25% for 2 year

growth rate 1 = 6%

required return 2 = 12%

to find out

current stock price

solution

we will find here first stock price after 2 year that is

stock price = cash flow at 2 year end × ( 1+rate ) / ( rate 2 - rate1 )    ..................1

so here  cash flow at 2 year end = 1.75×1.25 = 2.1875

2.1875 × 1.25 = 2.734

stock price = 2.734  × ( 1+ 0.06 ) / ( 0.12 - 0.06 )  

stock price = 48.30

so stock price at 0.12 return

= cash flow at 1 year / ( 1+ rate 2 ) + cash flow at 2 year / ( 1+ rate 2 )² + stock price / ( 1+ rate 2 )²

= 2.1875 / ( 1+ 0.12 ) +  2.734 / ( 1+ 0.12 )² + 48.30 / ( 1+ 0.12 )²

= $42.64

so option b is correct

current stock price is $42.64
