Answer:

Demand is said to be inelastic when the percentage change in the price of the good causes a lower percentage change in the quantity demanded of the good. So for eg if the price of milk falls 10% but its quantity demanded only increases by 5%, we can say that milk has inelastic demand

So in the case the answer is c. the quantity demanded changes only slightly when the price of the good changes.

Answer

The answer and procedures of the exercise are attached in the following archives.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gross profit = Sales - Cost of goods sold

= (440 x 90 + 220 x 80 + 264 x 50) - (440 x 56.7 + 220 x 50.4 + 264 x 31.5)

= (39,600 + 17,600 + 13,200) - (24,948 + 11,088 + 8,316)

= 70,400 - 44,352

1. You have a portfolio that is invested 21% in Stock A, 34% in Stock B, and 45% in Stock C. The betas of the stocks are .66, 1.
MrMuchimi

Answer:

1.

Portfolio Beta = 1.225 rounded off to 1.23

Option e is the correct answer.

2.

r = 0.13338 or 13.338% rounded off to 13.34%

Explanation:

1.

The portfolio beta is a function of the weighted average of the individual stocks' betas that form up the portfolio. To calculate the beta of a portfolio, we use the following formula,

Portfolio Beta = wA * Beta of A  +  wB * Beta of B  + ... + wN * Beta of N

Where,

w is the weight of each stock

Portfolio Beta = 0.21 * 0.66  +  0.34 * 1.21  +  0.45 * 1.5

Portfolio Beta = 1.225 rounded off to 1.23

2.

Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.

The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

rRF is the risk free rate

rM is the market return

r = 0.037  +  1.22 * (0.116 - 0.037)

r = 0.13338 or 13.338% rounded off to 13.34%

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Crawford Construction

1. Crawford Construction sold and replaced its inventory:

a. 4.14 x

2. With Construction Industry Inventory Turnover Ratio as 4.55x, Crawford Construction:

b. Crawford Construction is holding more inventory per dollar of sales compared to the industry average

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Quick ratio = 2.00x,

Cash = $36,225

Accounts receivable = $20,125

Inventory = x

x= $80,500 - 36,225 - 20,125 = $24,150

Total current assets = $80,500

Total current liabilities = $28,175

Annual sales = $100,000

Using annual sales instead of cost of goods sold to calculate the inventory turnover, = Turnover/Inventory = $100,000/$24,150 = 4.14x

b) Quick ratio equals (Current assets - Inventory)/Current Liabilities.  Computing the quick ratio in place of the current ratio can be used to identify how Crawford Construction can meet its current (short-term) debts without selling inventory and recovering funds from the sale.

c) The Inventory Turnover Ratio divides the cost of goods sold by the average inventory.  The Sales value can approximate the cost of goods sold.  The ratio shows the efficiency of Crawford Construction in handling its inventory.  The higher the value of the ratio, the better, showing that Crawford is more efficient when it gets a higher turnover ratio.

An assessor explains to you that the market value of your property was converted to the assessed value using what's called an as
Anna11 [10]

The assessment ratio, which is used to convert the value of property to the assessed value, can also be considered <u>Equalization Rate</u>.

<h3>What is the equalization rate?</h3>

The equalization rate is the ratio of the total assessed value (AV) to a municipality's total market value (MV).

The equalization rate is a measurement of a municipality's level of assessment (LOA) by the state.

This implies that the municipality determines the AV while the state determines the MV.

Thus, the assessment ratio, which is used to convert the value of property to the assessed value, can also be considered <u>Equalization Rate</u>.
