Answer: 25%

Explanation:

The Sharpe Ratio will be calculated by using the formula:

= (​Rp​−Rf)/σp

​​where,

Rp ​= return of portfolio = 0.08

Rf​ = risk-free rate = 0.03

σp​ = standard deviation of portfolio’s excess return​ = 0.20

Therefore, Sharpe Ratio will be:

= (​Rp​−Rf)/σp

= (0.08 - 0.03)/0.20

= 0.05/0.20

= 0.25 or 25%

The Sharpe ratio is 25%.

Pera Inc. wishes to issue new bonds. These are 5-year bonds with semi-annual interest; $1,000 par value, and a yield to maturity
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

coupon rate= 13.5%

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Number of periods= 5*2= 10 semesters

Par value= $1,000

YTM= 0.1/2 = 0.05

Price bond= $1,136

<u>To calculate the coupon rate, first, we need to determine the coupon per semester using the following formula:</u>

Bond Price​= coupon*{[1 - (1+i)^-n] / i} + [face value/(1+i)^n]

1,136 = coupon*{[1 - (1.05^-10)] / 0.05} + [1,000/(1.05^10)]

1,136 = coupon*7.722 + 613.91

522.09 = coupon*7.722

$67.61=coupon

<u>Now, the coupon rate:</u>

Coupon= par value*(coupon rate/2)

67.61= 1,000*(coupon rate/2)

67.61= 500coupon rate

0.135=coupon rate

coupon rate= 13.5%

Suppose that GDP is $10,000, Consumption is $6,000, and Government spending is $1,500 with a deficit of $200. (Assume net export
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

private saving = $2700

Explanation:

given data

GDP = $10,000

Consumption = $6,000

Government spending = $1,500

deficit = $200

solution

we know here equation of GDP that is express as

GDP = Consumption + investment + Government spending   ...................1

we consider here tax revenue that is = T

T - Government spending = - deficit

T = Government spending - deficit

T = $1500 - $200

T = $1300

so we can say from equation 1

( GDP - Consumption - T ) + ( T - Government spending ) = investment

and investment = private saving + public saving

so private saving will be

private saving = GDP - Consumption - tax revenue  ................2

private saving = $10000 - $6000 - $1300

private saving = $2700

The income statement is a statement of revenue and costs in order to show the financial performance of an entity during a period of time.  It shows the gross profit and net operating profit or loss.

The Gross profit is the difference between Sales Revenue and the Cost of goods sold.

The Operating Profit (Loss) is the difference between the Gross profit and the Operating costs.
