Answer: 0.89

Explanation:

The total portfolio beta is a weighted average of the constituent security betas.

145,000 + 58,000 = $203,000

The total portfolio beta of 203,000 should have a beta of 1.19.

Proportion of New investment = 58,000/203,000

= 28.57%

Proportion of old portfolio = 145,000/203,000

= 71.43%

(0.7143 * 1.31) + (0.2857 * x) = 1.19

0.9357 + 0.2857x = 1.19

0.2857x = ‭0.2543‬

x= 0.89

Lunna [17]

Answer:

1. Overheads rate per activity

Setup = $4,100 per setup

Machining = $120 per machine hour

Engineering = $60 per engineering hour

Packing = $0.30 per packing order

2. Cost per unit

Deluxe = $162.60

Normal = $53.675

Explanation:

As for the provided information:

We have,

Different activities as follows:

Setups = $2,050,000

Total setups = 300 + 200 = 500

Rate = $2,050,000/500 = $4,100 per setup

Machining = $48,000,000

Total machine hours = 100,000 + 300,000 = 400,000

Machine hour rate = $48,000,000/400,000 = $120 per machine hour

Engineering = $9,000,000

Total engineering hours = 50,000 + 100,000 = 150,000

Rate per hour = $9,000,000/150,000 = $60 per hour

Packing = $150,000

Packing orders = 100,000 + 400,000 = 500,000

Rate per hour = $150,000/500,000 = $0.30 per order

2. Calculating per product cost

Particulars              Deluxe                 Normal

Setup Cost

In 3:2 ratio            $1,230,000              $820,000

Machining Cost

In 1:3 ratio             $12,000,000          $36,000,000

Engineering cost

In 1:2 ratio            $3,000,000               $6,000,000

Packing Cost

In 1:4 Ratio             $30,000                  $120,000

Therefore total cost for each printer

                              $16,260,000           $42,940,000

Number of units         100,000              800,000

<u>Cost per unit               $162.60             $53.675</u>

Brutus co's leverage ratio is  40%

<h3>What leverage ratio?</h3>
  • The weighted average cost of capital (WACC), which includes common stock, preferred stock, bonds, and other types of debt, is the average after-tax cost of capital for a company. The WACC is the typical interest rate that a business anticipates paying to finance its assets.
  • The rate that a business is anticipated to charge on average to all of the holders of its securities in order to fund its

Cost of capital is 6%, its equity cost of capital is 11%, its weighted average cost of capital is 5.8% and its tax rate is 25%.

WACC = (5.8% x 25%) + (5.8% x 11% x 6%)

WACC = 3.973

WACC =   40%

Brutus co's leverage ratio is  40%
