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

1 Carlos owns a private limited company called BettaBakers Limited. It produces
deff fn [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

A) Lean production basically focuses on using all of the waste that a company produces in all of its processes so that no actual resources are left unused.

B) In this scenario, this can be achieved by using all of the excess baking mixtures and combining them into extra products as well as recycling used containers.

C) Carlos could either lower costs by using cheaper materials or hire more employees.

D) Batch production allows Carlos to produce large quantities of his products at a much faster and therefore more efficient pace. This also increases profits as they have more supply to match the demand.

E) This depends on whether or not Carlos has sufficient demand for his products. Otherwise, he would waste large amounts of money on implementing a flow production method and then not have enough demand to sell all of his products, which will therefore cost him even more money in losses.

A manufactured product has the following information for June. Standard Actual Direct materials (7 lbs. @ $9 per lb.) 60,000 lbs
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

price variance       12,000 U

quantity variance  4,500 U

Explanation:

(standard\:cost-actual\:cost) \times actual \: quantity= DM \: price \: variance

std cost  $9.00

actual cost  $9.20

quantity 60,000

These are givens so no calculation needed.

(9-9.20) \times 60,000= DM \: price \: variance

difference  $(0.20)

price variance  $(12,000.00)

The difference is negative, we purchase at a higher price, so the variance is unfavorable

(standard\:quantity-actual\:quantity) \times standard \: cost = DM \: quantity \: variance

std quantity        59500.00 (7 lbs per unit x 8,500 untis manufactured)

actual quantity 60000.00

std cost                         $9.00

(59,500-60,000) \times 9 = DM \: quantity \: variance

difference                       -500.00

efficiency variance  $(4,500.00)

The difference betwene standard lbs and the actual lbs used into production is negative, we use more lbs than standard. This variance is also unfavorable.

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

The firm's cash flow to creditors during 2018 was –$85,000

Explanation:

The firms cash flow to creditors would be calculating by substracting the interest expense of the firm to the long-term debt taken during the period.

Cash flow to creditors = Interest expense – Net new LTD borrowing

Cash flow to creditors = Interest expense – (LTDend – LTDbeg)

Cash flow to creditors = $255,000 – ($2,210,000 – 1,870,000)

Cash flow to creditors = –$85,000
