Answer:

A) True

Explanation:

The purpose of creating a portfolio is to diversify investment and achieve risk reduction as famously conveyed by the proverb, "do not put all the eggs in a single basket".

The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) was developed by William Sharpe and John Lintner. The model explains the relationship between expected return of an investor and the investment risk.

Return earned by a portfolio is the weighted average return of the individual stock returns.

CAPM helps calculate expected return of an investor by the following formula:

Return = R_{f} \ + B(R_{m}\ -\ R_{f}  )

wherein, R_{f} = Risk free rate of return yielded by treasury bonds

              B = Beta, which is a coefficient which conveys the degree of responsiveness of security return in relation to the market return.

             R_{m}= Return which can be earned on market portfolio

Thus, the relevant risk with respect to a portfolio refers to an individual stock's share of contribution to the portfolio risk.

gladu [14]

Explanation:

I disagree with this argument, it can be said that the secondary market is equally or more important than the primary market, due to the fact that it is the secondary markets that determine what will be the prices that the companies that issue bonds will sell in the primary market.

Secondary markets can also be considered to be responsible for making securities easier to sell in the primary market due to their greater liquidity.

b) In an income statement vertical analysis, each line item is calculated as a percentage of the sales, which is itself 100%.  This enables the proportional analysis of all the items to be computed about their financial performance in relation to the sales for the period.  It can help management to dictate unusual items, errors, and other outliers.

c) The balance sheet trend analysis shows whether the entity's financial position is improving or not in relation to the base period.  Each item is compared horizontally across periods.  The calculation of trend uses the amount in the non-base year and divides it by the amount of the base year x 100.
