navik [9.2K]

Answer:

3.5%

Explanation:

We will apply asset pricing model to calculate cost of equity (required rate of return). The capital asset pricing model is stated as below:

Cost of equity = Risk-free rate + Beta x Market risk premium

Putting all the number together, we have:

Cost of equity (Beale) = 5.5% + 1.8 x (9% - 5.5%) = 11.8%

Cost of equity (Foley) = 5.5% + 0.8 x (9% - 5.5%) = 8.3%

Cost of equity (Beale) - Cost of equity (Foley) = 11.8% - 8.3% = 3.5%

Note: You can also do quick calculation as below:

Cost of equity (Beale) - Cost of equity (Foley) = (Beta of Beale - Bete of Foley) x Market risk premium = (1.8 - 0.8) x (9% - 5.5%) = 3.5%

The degree to which a specific finding can be applied to a broader group or population is __________.

Citrus2011 [14]

The correct answer to this is either generalizing or generalizabilty. Both mean the same and can be used interchangeably. It is basically an ability to generalize something based on a specific finding. It's not only on a broader group though, as it can also be done for its impact on natural environments based on a smaller finding.

Prior to the write off of a $500 customer account, Athena Company had the following account balances: Accounts receivable $19,60

Effectus [21]

Answer:

Net accounts receivable Before $18,600 and After $18,600

Explanation:

solution

we know that here

net accounts receivable before write-off

Accounts Receivable = $19,600

and Allowance for doubtful debt = $1,000

so Net accounts receivable = $19,600 - $1,000 = $18,600

so

Journal Entry for write off is here

Allowance for doubtful Accounts = $500

Accounts Receivable = $500

and

Net accounts receivable after write off is

Accounts Receivable= $19,100

and

Allowance for doubtful debt= $500

so Net accounts receivable = $19,100 - $500

Net accounts receivable = 8,600

so Net accounts receivable Before $18,600 and After $18,600

Consider an 8.5% loan amortizing at a 25-year rate with monthly payments. What is the maximum amount that can be loaned on a pro

Leto [7]

Answer:

Maximum Amount that can be loanded = $4139619

Explanation:

DSCR = NOI / Debt Service

Debt Service = Principal + Interest

NOI = $ 500000

Debt Service = 500000 / 125 % = $ 400,000

The loan would be ammortized monthly over a period of 25 years.

Monthly Payment or EMI

E = P×r×(1 + r)n/ ((1 + r)n - 1)

12E = 400,000 = [P×r×(1 + r)n/ ((1 + r)n - 1)] * 12

or, P = 400000 / 0.0966272500154557 = $4139619

Maximum Amount that can be loanded = $4139619
