Answer:

The correct answer is option (A).

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

First, we will calculate the Market risk premium, then

Market risk premium = (Required return - Risk free rate ) ÷ beta

= ( 9.50% - 4.20%) ÷ 1.05 = 5.048%

So, now Required rate of return for new portfolio = Risk free rate + Beta of new portfolio × Market premium risk

Where, Beta of new portfolio = (10 ÷ 18.5) × 1.05 + (8.5 ÷ 18.5) × 0.65

= 0.5676 + 0.2986

= 0.8662

By putting the value, we get

Required rate of return = 4.20% + 0.8662 × 5.048%

= 8.57%

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

The budgeted selling expenses for the month of July is $220,000

Explanation:

The computation of the budgeted selling expenses are shown below:

= Sales commission + sales manager's salary +  shipping expenses +  miscellaneous selling expenses

where,

Sales commission = Sales × commission percentage

                              = $400,000 × 4%

                              = $16,000

Shipping expenses = Sales × expenses percentage

                                = $400,000 × 1%

                                = $4,000

The other expenses amount would remain the same

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $16,000 + $190,000 + $4,000 + $10,000

= $220,000

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

d. Both Ted and Kate are entitled to the dividend.

Explanation:

There are 3 important dates when a corporation declares a dividend:

  1. The declaration date: in this case June 20th. It is the date when the corporation declares that it will pay a certain cash dividend.
  2. The date of record: the date of record is one day after the ex-dividend date, which means that the stockholders that the stock until the ex-dividend date will be entitled to receive the dividend. The stockholders that purchase the stock on the record date or any date after the ex-dividend date, will not be entitled to receive the dividend. In this case, the ex-dividend date was July 11th, and both Ted and Kate purchased the stocks before that date.
  3. The date of payment: the actual date when the dividends are distributed, in this case, August 1st.
