Answer:

r or expected rate of return = 0.13 or 13%

Explanation:

Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.

The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • rM is the market return

r = 0.04 + 1.80 * (0.09 - 0.04)

r or expected rate of return = 0.13 or 13%

Andrej [43]
When calculating the long term capital gain on the sale of the property, it is important to make sure adjustments are made from the original date of purchase and when the land was gifted. 

To solve:
Adjusted amount = Original purchase amount + (gift tax X difference in what the land was worth/original land worth amount)
Adjusted amount = $20,000 + ($40,000 X $80,000/$100,000)
Adjusted amount = $52,000

Land owned for $200,000
Adjust amount is $52,000

$200,000 - $52,000 = $148,000

The long-term capital gain on the property is $148,000.

Answer:

This is really a personal opinion, since whether it is correct to send people to mars or not depends largely on your point of view and personal beliefs. Clearly, humans are far more capable than robots, and they can explore space and eventually other planets much better than a rover. On the other hand, sending people to Mars is not only extremely expensive, but it is also extremely dangerous for the astronauts themselves.

Imagine so many people died trying to get to space and then to the moon, and that was very easy compared to getting to Mars and back.

We can find millions of better ways to use the money than sending people to space, and that is really hard to argue against. Our planet, our country, state or even city could all benefit and use the money more productively.

But lets say that we do not care about the money because Mr. Bezos or some other billionaire decided to donate it. Now we would face the technical issues of going to Mars and actually staying there for a long time. A trip to mars is not something that would be carried out for just a couple of hours (like moon walking). Astronauts will have to stay in Mars for weeks, months or even years before they can return. This results in an extreme danger to their health due to cosmic rays. Can humans survive long term exposure to cosmic rays? The answer is NO and Mars's atmosphere doesn't help.

If we analyze this situation from a technical point of view, it would be better and safer to send astronauts to Titan (Saturn's moon), and would probably be also more useful. Titan's environment is similar to Earth's in many ways, and if we are actually doing it for a scientific purpose besides simply being curious, then it is much more useful to go to Titan. The scientific purpose of going to mars instead of other possible destinations is not very solid. Mars is really different to Earth and unless someone finds Martians living there, there is not much you can do.

Sales= 10,000

COGS= 6000 (-)

Gross profit= 4000

Operating, selling, general and administrative expenses= 2300 (-)

Net operating income= 1700

Interest= 250 (-)

Earnings before taxes= 1450

Aneli [31]

Answer:

800 units of product A must be sold for break-even

Explanation:

Given, weighted-average contribution is $100.

Total break-even units = Total fixed cost  / Weighted-average contribution

Total break-even units = $400,000  / $100

Total break-even units = 4,000 units

Product A break-even = 4,000 x 20%

Product A break-even = (800 units)

Hence, the correct answer is 800 units.
