Answer:

the beta of the second stock is 1.77

Explanation:

The beta of the second stock is shown below;

Investment in each = (1 ÷ 3)

Now as we know that

Portfolio beta = Respective investments × Respective weights

1 = (1 ÷ 3 × 1.23) + (1 ÷ 3 × beta of the second stock) + (1 ÷ 3 × 0)

We assume the Beta of risk-free assets would be zero

1 = 0.41 + (1 ÷ 3 × beta of the second stock)

The beta of the second stock is

= (1 - 0.41) × 3

= 1.77

Hence, the beta of the second stock is 1.77

Olegator [25]

Answer:

V(t) = $ 1.5 billion for 2007

V(t) = $1.5 billion, 295 million. For 2012

Doubling time = t = 177.69 yrs

Explanation:

a).

V(t) = 1.5e^(0.039t)

For the first year 2007, t= 0

V(t) = 1.5e^(0.039*0)

V(t). = 1.5e^0

V(t) =. 1.5*1 = 1.5

V(t) = $ 1.5 billion for 2007

For 2012 that is 5 years after,t= 5

V(t) = 1.5e^(0.0039*5)

V(t) = 1.5e^ (0.0195)

V(t) = 1.5(1.019691367)

V(t) = 1.5295

V(t) = $1.5 billion, 295 million.

b). Doubling time is when the value of the export is 1.5 *2 =$ 3 billion

3 = 1.5e^(0.0039t)

3/1.5= e^(0.0039t)

2 = e^0.0039t

In 2 = 0.0039t

0.693= 0.0039t

t = 177.69 yrs

desired profits=$ 20,000.00

volume(V) to meet profit target;

Contribution margin per sale= $100-$20= $80

Profits = revenue-cost

=$20,000= Vx$80-$100,000

=20,000=v80-100000

   v80=100,000.00+20,000

    v80=120,000

         v=  120,000/80

Volume =1,500
