Answer:βB =0.9147=beta of new investment

Explanation:

Total investment= $130,000 + $49,000=  $179,000

Using

Portfolio beta(βp) = wA × βA + wB × βB

Where βp is the portfolio beta coefficient,

wA is the weight of the first investment,

βA is the beta coefficient of first investment;

wB is the weight of the second investment,

βB is the beta coefficient of second investment

but weight of investment is  stock value/ total investment x 100

wA= 130,000/ 179,000X 100=72.63%

WB= 49,000/179,000 X100=27.374%

Portfolio beta(βp) = wA × βA + wB × βB

1.18=(72.63%*1.28)+(27.374% XβB  )  

1.18=0.9296+0.27374βB  

βB i=(1.18-0.9298)/0.27374

βB =0.9147=beta of new investment

shepuryov [24]

Based on the relationship between the above mentioned measures, the following is true:

  • Price and yield to maturity are <u>inversely </u>related.
  • When YTM <u>rises</u>, the price of the bond <u>falls</u>.

<h3>What is Yield to Maturity?</h3>
  • It is the discount rate on the bond.
  • It shows the riskiness of the bond.

When the YTM is high, it means that the bond is more risky which leads to it having a lower price to compensate for the risk. The reverse is true.

To calculate a year-to-year percentage change in any financial statement line item such as sales, you should take the current ye
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

the prior year's amount

Explanation:

In financial statements when measuring performance increase the percentage change in various financial statement lines are usually used.

Financial statement lines are individual items on financial statements. For example current assets, current liabilities, and sales.

The percentage change aims to compare increase in a financial statement line item against the previous year's amount.

This will give an idea of how much increase has occurred on previous performance.

So it is calculated by deducting previous year amount from current year amount, then divide by the previous year amount and multiply by 100

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

$99,800

Explanation:

The statements of cash flows show cash inflows and out flows from the business activities which are recognized as operating, investing and financing activities.

When an asset is sold, the amount received from the sale of the asset is recognized as an inflow in the investing section of the cash flow statement.

The gain/loss from the sale would have been treated in the operating section based on the effect it had in the income statement while computing the net income of the company.

The financial statements for Castile Products, Inc., are given below: Castile Products, Inc. Balance Sheet December 31 Assets Cu
Delicious77 [7]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

1.

Working capital = Current Asset - Current Liabilities

= $569,000 - $280,000

= $289,000

2.

Current ratio  = Current Asset ÷ Current Liability

= $569,000 ÷ $280,000

= 2.03

3.

Acid-test (quick) ratio  = {(Current Asset - Inventory - prepaid expense) ÷ Current Liabilities }

= {{$569,000- $320,000 - $8,000) ÷ ($280,000)}

= 0.86 times

4.

Debt-Equity ratio   = Total Liability ÷ Shareholders' Equity

= $670,000 ÷ $759,000

= 0.88 times

5.

Times interest earned   = EBIT ÷ Interest Charges

= ($1,224,000 + $35,100) ÷ ($35,100)

= 35.87 times

6.

Average collection period

= 365 ÷ ($3,010,00 ÷ $215,000)

= 26 days

The $215,000 comes from

= ($210,000 + $220,000) ÷ 2

= $215,000

7. The average sales period is

= 365 ÷ ($1,110,000 ÷ $300,000)

= 99 days

The $300,000 comes from

= ($280,000 + $320,000) ÷ 2

= $300,000

8. The operating cycle is

= 99 days - 26 days

= 73 days
