You are offered two stocks. The beta of A is 1.4 while the beta of B is 0.8. The growth rates of earnings and dividends are 10%

and 5%, respectively. The dividend yields are 5% and 7%, respectively.

Answer:

a) Yes , Cause The Expected Returns of stock A is Higher than that of B

b) No,  Cause The Expected Returns of stock B is Lower than that of A

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Beta A \beta A=1.4

Beta B \beta B=0.8

Stock 1 Growth rates of earnings and dividends G_1=10\%

Stock 2 Growth rates of earnings and dividends  G_2=5\%

Stock 1  Dividend yields D_1=5\%

Stock 2 Dividend yields  D_2=7\%

Generally the equation for Expected Returns is mathematically given by

Expected Returns =Growth rates+Dividend yields

For Stock 1

Expected\ Returns =G_1+D_1

Expected\ Returns =5%+10%

Expected\ Returns =15%

For Stock 2

Expected\ Returns =G_2+D_2

Expected\ Returns =7%+5%

Expected\ Returns =12%

Therefore

a) Yes , Cause The Expected Returns of stock A is Higher than that of B

b) No,  Cause The Expected Returns of stock B is Lower than that of A

In the distribution, the first quartile,median and mean are 30.8,48.5 and 42.0 respectively. If the co efficient skewness is -0.
finlep [7]

Answer:

The third quartile is 56.45

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The first quartile, Q₁ = 30.8

The median or second quartile, Q₂ = 48.5

The mean, \bar x = 42.0

Coefficient of skewness = -0.38

The Bowley's coefficient of skewness (SK) is given as follows;

SK = \dfrac{Q_3 + Q_1 - 2 \times Q_2}{Q_3 - Q_1}

Plugging in the values, we have;

-0.38 = \dfrac{Q_3 + 30.8 - 2 \times 48.5}{Q_3 - 30.8}

Which gives;

-0.38×(Q₃ - 30.8) = Q₃ + 30.8 - 2 × 48.5

11.704 - 0.38·Q₃ = Q₃ - 66.2

1.38·Q₃ = 11.704 + 66.2 =  77.904

Q₃ = 56.45

The third quartile = 56.45.
