Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the portfolio weighted of UPS and FedEx is shown below:

Let us assume the weight of UPS be x

And, the weight of FedEx be (1 - x)

As we know that

Portfolio beta = Respective beta × Respective weight

1.08 = (x × 1.5) + (1 - x) × 0.9

1.08 = 1.5x + 0.9 - 0.9x

x = (1.08 - 0.9) ÷ (1.5 - 0.9)

x = 0.30 or 30%

= UPS weight

And, the weight of FedEx is

= 1 - x

= 1 - 0.30

= 0.70

Taylor Entertainment Center has 5 TVs on hand at the balance sheet date that cost $400 each. The net realiz- able value is $350
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Under the lower-of-cost-or- net realizable value basis of accounting for inventories, the value that Taylor should report for the TVs on the balance sheet is $350 × 5 = $1,750

Explanation:

The lower-of-cost-or- net realizable value basis of accounting for inventories values inventory at the lower of its cost or net realizable value. This basis of accounting gives a <em>faithful representation</em> to the users of the value of assets in inventory that firm holds. This is  also <em>prudent</em> in that profits are not overstated in the Income statement.
