Answer:
Risk free interest rate is 5%
Y is 15.5% at a Beta of 1.5
X is 0.29 when Y is 7%
Explanation:
Risk free interest is 0.05 which 5% as given in the equation
The average expected return is given by Y
Y=0.05+0.07X
Since Beta is the same as X, when equals 1.5,Y is calculated thus
Y=0.05+0.07(1.5)
Y=0.05+0.105
Y=0.155
Y=15.5%
The value of Beta at an average return of 7% is computed thus:
7%=0.05+0.07X
where X is the unknown
0.07=0.05+0.07X
0.07-0.05=0.07X
0.02=0.07X
X=0.02/0.07
X=0.29
The scenario illustrates that the Beta, which is the risk of investment and the Y , the expected average return are positively correlated.
Answer:
d.guarantee the company will earn a profit
Explanation:
Internal controls are controls put in place by management to mitigate against identified risk. Risk basically refers to what could go wring in a process. Controls are put in place to mitigate against the risk of error or fraud and do not necessarily prevent the company from making a loss.
Companies make profit or loss based on management's decisions such as where to invest, what time to invest, introduction of a new product, management of cost of sales and operating expenses etc
Internal controls basically consist of policies and procedures that ensure that the company's asset are not misused (fraud), no misrepresentation of revenue (fraud), employees and managers comply with laws and regulations, business information is accurate ( no misrepresentation of records due to error) etc.
Hence Internal control does not consist of policies and procedures that guarantee the company will earn a profit.
