The beta of the portfolio is defined as an average of the betas (β) of each asset within the portfolio weighted by their respective invested amounts (A):

$A_{P}* \beta_{P} =A_{B}* \beta_{B} +A_{D}* \beta_{D} +A_{F}* \beta_{F} \\\beta_{P} =\frac{20,000 * 1.5 + 50,000*2.0 +30,000*0.5}{100,000}\\\beta_{P} = 1.45$

The beta of the portfolio is 1.45

Ainat [17]

Answer:

i=4.84%

Explanation:

the key to answer this question, is to remember the model of return for a perpeuity dividend calculation:

$Value=\frac{1}{i-k}$

where value is the current stock price, i is the dividend yield and k is the growth rate, so applying to this particular case we have

k=3.4/91

k=3.74%

and solving i for the previous formula:

$91=\frac{1}{i-0.0374}$

$0.01098={i-0.0374}$

$i=4.84\%$

Explanation:

The computation of the Net present value is shown below

= Present value of all yearly cash inflows after applying discount factor - initial investment

The discount factor should be computed by

= 1 ÷ (1 + rate) ^ years

where,

rate is 10%

Year = 0,1,2,3,4 and so on

Discount Factor:

Year 1 = 0.909

Year 2 = 0.826

Year 3 = 0.751

Year 4 = 0.683

Year 5 = 0.621

So, the calculation of a Present value of all yearly cash inflows are shown below

= Year 1 cash inflow × Present Factor of Year 1 + Year 2 cash inflow × Present Factor of Year 2 + Year 3 cash inflow × Present Factor of Year 3 + Year 4 cash inflow × Present Factor of Year 4 + Year 5 cash inflow × Present Factor of Year 5

= $180,000 × 0.909 + $120,000 × 0.826 + $100,000 × 0.751 + $90,000 × 0.683 + $90,000 × 0.621

= $163,620 + $99,120 + $75,100 + $61,470 + $55,890

= $455,200

So, the Net present value equals to

= $455,200 - $430,000

= $25,200
