Answer:
C. Reject W
Explanation:
In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) which is shown below:
Expected return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate - Risk-free rate of return)
= 7% + 1.6 × (12%-7%)
= 7% + 1.6 × 5%
= 7% + 8%
= 15%
The Project W should be rejected as it gives only 14% expected return which is less than the derived expected return.
Answer:
$1,115.58
Explanation:
Calculation to determine how much should you be willing to pay for this bond
Using this formula
Bond Price= cupon*{[1 - (1+i)^-n] / i} + [face value/(1+i)^n]
Where,
Par value= $1,000
Cupon= $35
Time= 10*4= 40 quarters
Rate= 0.12/4= 0.03
Let plug in the formula
Bond Price= 35*{[1 - (1.03^-40)] / 0.03} + [1,000/(1.03^40)]
Bond Price= 809.02 + 306.56
Bond Price= $1,115.58
Therefore how much should you be willing to pay for this bond is $1,115.58

Answer:
2,000,001 shares
Explanation:
To solve this question, we need to use the cumulative voting formula:
X = [(S x N) / (D + 1)] + 1
-
X = minimum number of shares that must be owned = ?
-
S = total outstanding shares = 10,000,000
-
N = number of directors we want to elect = 1
-
D = total number of directors to be elected = 4
X = [(10,000,000 x 1) / (4 + 1)] + 1 = (10,000,000 / 5) + 1 = 2,000,001
There are two voting procedures used to elect the members of a board of directors: the straight voting method and the cumulative voting method.
- The straight voting method favors majority stockholders since they receive one vote per stock per open seat which means that someone that has 50% plus 1 stock can actually get all the board members elected.
- Cumulative voting system assigns one vote per stock for the whole election, that means that a board member could be elected with 20% plus 1 vote. This voting system favors minority shareholders since someone with 50% plus 1 vote could only get 2 members elected by himself/herself.
