Answer:

asset distribution preference

Explanation:

In such a situation the preference or privilege that would be best for you is known as asset distribution preference or liquidation preference. This is a clause that dictates that the payout in case of a corporate liquidation (such as when they are about to go bankrupt) must first go to the preferred stockholders in order for them to get their money back first. Therefore, since you are a preferred stockholder this would be the biggest privilege for you, allowing you to recover your money quickly and move on to something else.

Complete Question:

A 60-year old retiree is in a very low tax bracket. He has a low risk tolerance and wishes to make an investment that will provide income. Which is the BEST recommendation?

Group of answer choices.

A. Mid-cap common stock

B. Municipal bond

C. Bank CD

D. Treasure STRIPS

Answer:

C. Bank CD

Explanation:

In this scenario, a 60-year old retiree is in a very low tax bracket. He has a low risk tolerance and wishes to make an investment that will provide income. A Bank certificate of deposit (CD) is the best recommendation.

A bank certificate of deposit (CD) can be defined as a secured form of time-bound deposit and a special low-risk savings account, wherein money (lump-sum) are left with the bank for a specific period of time in exchange for an interest rate premium.

Generally, a certificate of deposit pays a higher interest rate to its holder than the regular savings account because the banks invest the money in a business.

<em>Additionally, the bank certificate of deposit is protected and insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) for up to $250,000.</em>

Serhud [2]

Answer:

Percentage change in price = -5.33 * 0.00005

Percentage change in price = -5.33 * ((0.01/2)/100)

Percentage change in price = -5.33 * (0.005/100)

Percentage change in price = -5.33 * 0.00005

Two investment advisers are comparing performance. Adviser A averaged a 20% return with a portfolio beta of 1.5, and adviser B a
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Option A is the correct answer.

A. Advisor A was better because he generated a larger alpha.

Explanation:

To determine which adviser would be the better stock selector, we will calculate the required rate of return of each adviser and the return actually averaged. The adviser with the greater abnormal return, which is return in excess of required rate, will be the better stock selector.

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 of Adviser A = 0.05 + 1.5 * (0.13 - 0.05)

r of Adviser A = 0.17 or 17%

Abnormal or excess return of Adviser A = 20% - 17% = 3%

r of Adviser B = 0.05 + 1.2 * (0.13 - 0.05)

r of Adviser B = 0.146 or 14.6%

Abnormal or excess return of Adviser B = 15% - 14.6% = 0.4%

Adviser A performed better as the excessive return or alpha of Adviser A was 3% while that of Adviser B was 0.4%
