Answer:

For X $150

For Y $100

Explanation:

The computation of optimal weight of X and Y in risky portfolio is shown below:-

Risk portfolio = Complete portfolio × Weight of risky portfolio

= $1,000 × 25%

= $250

So, Optimal weight of X and Y in risky portfolio will be

For X in dollars = Risk portfolio × Optimal weight percentage of X

= $250 × 60%

= $150

For Y in dollars = Risk portfolio × Optimal weight percentage of Y

= $250 × 40%

= $100

Therefore for computing the Optimal weight of X and Y in risky portfolio we simply multiply the risk portfolio with optimal percentage of X and in the similar way of Y.

skad [1K]

Answer:

c. 1.50%

Explanation:

The Hardwig, Inc is considering to pursue a relaxed or restricted current asset investment. We need to calculate the ROE for both the situations. The Net income in the both situation will be;

EBIT - Interest expense - Tax expense = Net Income

Restricted situation = $150,000 - 72,000 - 31,200 = $46,800

Relaxed situation = $150,000 - 81,818 - 27,273 = $40,909

ROE = Net income / equity

Relaxed situation = $40,909 / $818,180 = 5.00%

Restricted situation = $46,800 / $720,000 = 6.50%

The difference between both ROE = 1.50%
