Answer:

Weighted average contribution margin ratio= $632.5

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Suits:

Selling price= $1,000

Unitary variable cost= $300

Sales participation= 90%

Ties:

Selling price=  $100

Unitary variable cost= $75

Sales participation= 10%

To calculate the weighted contribution ratio, we need to use the following formula:

Weighted average contribution margin ratio= weighted average selling price - weighted average unitary varialble cost

weighted average selling price= (1,000*0.9) + (100*0.1)= 910

weighted average unitary varialble cost= (300*0.9) + (75*0.1)= 277.5

Weighted average contribution margin ratio= 910 - 277.5= $632.5

You invest $1,000 in a complete portfolio. The complete portfolio is composed of a risky asset with an expected rate of return o
gladu [14]

Answer:

The rate of return on the risky asset is 16% and on treasury bill is 6% and we need a return of (1100-1,000)/1000= 10% or 0.1

If we think of x as the percentage investment in risky asset and 1-x as the investment in non risky asset we can mathematically find what proportion we need to invest in each asset to get this return.

16x+ 6(1-x)=10

16x+6-6x=10

10x=4

x=4/10

x= 0.4

This equation tells us that we should invest 40% in risky assets and 1-x which is 60% in treasury bills. We can test our answer by putting these values and see if the return is 10 %

(0.4*16)+(0.6*6)= Rate of return

Rate of return=10%

10% of 1000 = 100

100+1000=$1100

Deal or No Deal. You are a contestant with 5 suitcases left: $1 $30,000 $100,000 $300,000 $750,000 The bank offers you $250,000
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Deal

Explanation:

Amount of cash left in the 5 Suitcase = $1 , $30000, $100000, $300000, $750000

The probability of selecting each bad is equal and it is 1/5

Thus, the expected value of prize = 0.2(1+30000+100000+300000+750000)

= 0.2 * 1180001

= $236,000.2 0

Since the bank is offering amount of $250,000 which is greater than the expected value, then it is considered as a deal.
