Answer (A):
Need more data to select the better adviser
<u>Explanation: </u>
Adviser A averaged 19% return on the investment which is more than that of Adviser B who averaged 16% return on investment. However, adviser A has a beta of 1.5 which is also greater than that of Adviser B who has a beta of 1. This means that adviser A made a more riskier investment and hence a higher average return on investment. We need more data to tell which adviser performed better in relation to each other.
Answer (B):
Investment Adviser B
<u>Explanation:</u>
= T-bill rate = 6%
= Market return = 14%
= Market risk premium = 14% - 6% = 8%
= Average Return by Adviser A =19%
= Beta of Adviser A = 1.5
= Average Return by Adviser B =16%
= Beta of Adviser B = 1
CAPM Equation is 
<u>For Adviser A</u>
= 6 + 1.5 (14 - 6) = 18%
The expected average return for the investment is 18% which means that Adviser A over performed the market by 1 %
<u>For Adviser B</u>
= 6 + 1 (14 - 6) = 14%
The expected average return for the investment is 14% which means that the Adviser B over performed the market by 2 %
Clearly, Adviser B performed better than Adviser A.

Answer:
Terminal value
= 500(1+0.12)3 + 500(1+0.12)2 + 500(1+0.12)1+ 500(1+0.12)0
= 500(1.12)3 + 500(1.12)2 + 500(1.12)1 + 500(1.12)0
= 702.464 + 627.2 + 560 + 500
= $2,389.66
The correct answer is E
Explanation:
Terminal value is a function of number of years cashflow for each year can be re-invested at the appropriate discount rate. The cashflow for year 1 can be re-invested for 3 years since the life of the project is 4 years. cashflow for year 2 can be re-invested for 2 years, cashflow for year 3 can be re-invested for 1 year and cashflow for year 4 can be re-invested for 0 year.
