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.

Two firms, A and B, each currently dump 50 tons of chemicals into the local river. The government has decided to reduce the poll
vitfil [10]

Answer:

d. Firm A will spend $4,000.

Explanation:

Since Firm B cost of Cleanup before it gets the the river is less than the cost of pollution permits, it will choose to clean up its pollution.

However, since Firm A cleanup cost per ton ($100) is greater than the cost of the pollution permit, it will choose to buy permits.

Maximum Allowable Number of Permits=40

Therefore, Firm A will clean up 10 Tons and dump 40 Tons of Waste.

Cost =(10 Tons *$100)+(40 Tons * $75)

=$(1000+3000)

=$4000.

Firm A will spend $4000.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

The closest answer is option A,$7649

The net present value of the investment is the present value of annual cost savings minus the initial cost of investment.

present of cash flow=cash flow/(1+r)^n

r is the discount rate of 12%

n is the year the cash flow relates to ,for instance year zero for the initial investment

NPV=-$54,000+$16,000/(1+12%)^1+$16,000/(1+12%)^2+$16,000/(1+12%)^3+$16,000/(1+12%)^4+($16,000+$7,000)/(1+12%)^5=$ 7,648.41

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

The price of the stock today is $42.94

Explanation:

The price of a stock whose dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate is calculated using the constant growth model of Dividend Discount model approach. It bases the price of the stock on the present value of the expected future dividends. The price today under this model is calculated as follows,

P0 = D0 * (1+g)  /  r - g

Where,

  • D0 * (1+g) is the D1 or the dividend for the next year
  • r is the required rate of return
  • g is the growth rate in dividends

P0 = 4 * (1+0.052)  /  (0.15 - 0.052)

P0 = $42.938 rounded off to $42.94
