Answer:

Historical cost principle

Explanation:

Assets must be recorded at cost value, not market value. When you record an asset, you cannot change its value every period, you have to keep using the historical value. This is why we use a separate account to record accumulated depreciation of assets, so that the purchase cost is always constant, but the net carrying value will vary depending on depreciation expense.

Market value changes and can be very volatile. Imagine a house, whose initial value was $300,000, then it increased to $500,000 but the market went down and its value was $350,000. It would be a mess to change the value and pay capital gains taxes, or then report a loss.

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

expected return is 15.8%

portfolio beta is 94.5%

Explanation:

a. EXPECTED RETURN: to calculate the the expected return of, we simply multiply each of the stock percentage by its expected return and then sum it up. thus we have

0.2×0.16 + 0.3×0.14 + 0.15×0.2 + 0.25×0.12 + 0.1×0.24= 0.158

Multiply the result by 100% yields 15.8%

B. PORTFOLIO BETA: to calculate the portfolio beta, we simply multiply the weighted average of the stock percentage by the portfolio beta. thus we have;

0.2×1 + 0.3×0.85 + 0.15×1.2 + 0.25×0.6 + 0.1×1.6= 0.945

multiply the result by 100% yields 94.5%
