Answer:

=> fraction of the portfolio that should be allocated to T-bills = 0.4482 = 44.82%.

=> fraction to equity = 0.5518 = 55.18%.

Explanation:

So, in this question or problem we are given the following parameters or data or information which are; that the utility function is U = E(r) – 0.5 × Aσ2 and the risk-aversion coefficient is A = 4.4.

The fraction of the portfolio that should be allocated to T-bills and its equivalent fraction to equity can be calculated by using the formula below;

The first step is to determine or Calculate the value of fraction to equity.

Hence, the fraction to equity = risk premium/(market standard deviation)^2 - risk aversion.

= 8.10% ÷ [(20.48%)^2 × 3.5 = 0.5518.

Therefore, the value for fraction of the portfolio that should be allocated to T-bills = 1 - fraction to equity = 1 - 0.5518 =0.4482 .

Vaughn Manufacturing incurred the following costs for 84000 units: Variable costs $504000 Fixed costs 392000 Vaughn has received
Damm [24]

Answer:

$7.8

Explanation:

Variable costs = $504,000

Fixed costs = $392,000

Number of units produced = 84,000

Shipping charges = $4,500

Therefore, the variable cost per unit is calculated as follows:

= Variable costs ÷ Number of units produced

= $504,000 ÷ 84,000

= $6 per unit

Incremental fixed cost per unit (For 2,500):

= Shipping cost ÷ 2,500

= $4,500 ÷ 2,500

= $1.8 per unit

Therefore, the unit sales price will be the sum total of variable cost per unit and incremental fixed cost per unit for the shipping charges.

BEP (in sales price per unit):

= Variable cost per unit + incremental fixed cost per unit

= $6 + $1.8

= $7.8
