Answer:
Consider the following information for three stocks, A, B, and C. The stocks' returns are positively but not perfectly positively correlated with one another, i.e., the correlations are all between 0 and 1. Expected Standard Stock Return Deviation Beta
A 10% 20% 1.0
B 10% 10% 1.0
C 12% 12%1.4
Portfolio AB has half of its funds invested in Stock A and half in Stock B. Portfolio ABC has one third of its funds invested in each of the three stocks. The risk-free rate is 5%, and the market is in equilibrium, so required returns equal expected returns. Which of the following statements is CORRECT?
Question 13 options:
a) Portfolio ABC's expected return is 10.66667% correct answer
. b) Portfolio AB has a standard deviation of 20%.
c)Portfolio ABC has a standard deviation of 20%.
d)Portfolio AB's required return is greater than the required return on Stock A.
e)Portfolio AB's coefficient of variation is greater than 2.0
Answer:
1. 73 %
2. 27 %
3. $60,000
4. Ways to increase projected operating income without increasing total sales revenue :
- Reduce the variable costs per unit
- Reduce fixed overheads
Explanation:
Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution / Sales × 100
Where,
Contribution = Sales - Variable Costs
= $88,000 - $23,760
= $64,240
Then,
Contribution Margin Ratio = $64,240/ $88,000 × 100
= 73 %
Variable Cost Ratio = Variable Cost / Sales × 100
= $23,760 / $88,000 × 100
= 27 %
Break-even sales revenue = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio
= $43,800 ÷ 0.73
= $60,000
<u>Ways to increase projected operating income without increasing total sales revenue :</u>
- Reduce the variable costs per unit
- Reduce fixed overheads
Answer:
The rate is greater than 8%

Given
![\small I = 1,000 \left (\left (1+\frac{r}{100} \right )^{n}-1 \right )](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csmall%20I%20%3D%201%2C000%20%5Cleft%20%28%5Cleft%20%281%2B%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7B100%7D%20%5Cright%20%29%5E%7Bn%7D-1%20%5Cright%20%29)

![n =2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=n%20%3D2)
Required
Is r > 1
We have:
![\small I = 1,000 \left (\left (1+\frac{r}{100} \right )^{n}-1 \right )](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csmall%20I%20%3D%201%2C000%20%5Cleft%20%28%5Cleft%20%281%2B%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7B100%7D%20%5Cright%20%29%5E%7Bn%7D-1%20%5Cright%20%29)
Substitute values for r and I
![210 = 1,000 \left (\left (1+\frac{r}{100} \right )^{2}-1 \right )](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=210%20%3D%201%2C000%20%5Cleft%20%28%5Cleft%20%281%2B%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7B100%7D%20%5Cright%20%29%5E%7B2%7D-1%20%5Cright%20%29)
Divide both sides by 1000
![0.210 = \left (\left (1+\frac{r}{100} \right )^{2}-1 \right )](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0.210%20%3D%20%5Cleft%20%28%5Cleft%20%281%2B%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7B100%7D%20%5Cright%20%29%5E%7B2%7D-1%20%5Cright%20%29)
Add 1 to both sides
![1.210 = (1+\frac{r}{100} \right ))^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1.210%20%3D%20%281%2B%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7B100%7D%20%5Cright%20%29%29%5E%7B2%7D)
Take square roots of both sides
![\sqrt{1.210} = 1+\frac{r}{100}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7B1.210%7D%20%3D%201%2B%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7B100%7D)
![1.1 = 1+\frac{r}{100}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1.1%20%3D%201%2B%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7B100%7D)
Subtract 1 from both sides
![0.1 = \frac{r}{100}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0.1%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7B100%7D)
Multiply both sides by 100
![r = 10](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%20%3D%2010)
![10 > 8](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=10%20%3E%208)

<em>Hence, the rate is greater than 8%</em>
Answer: historical exchange rate
Explanation:
The temporal method is also referred to as the historical method. Under this method, the currency of a foreign subsidiary is being converted into the currency of the parent company.
It should be noted that under the temporal method, the income statement items which relate to newly recognized assets and liabilities generally are remeasured using the historical exchange rate.
