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

Answer:

                                                   Q1               Q2             Q3            Q4

a. Payment of accounts ($)     258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

b. Payment of accounts ($)     258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

c. Payment of accounts ($)     258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

Explanation:

Given:

                              Q1                Q2           Q3           Q4

Sales ($)               860              940         900         1,000

Therefore, we  have:

a. Calculate payments to suppliers assuming that the company places orders during each quarter equal to 30 percent of projected sales for the next quarter. Assume that the company pays immediately. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

This is done as follows:

                                                 Q1                Q2           Q3            Q4

Order (30% of Sales) ($)      258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

Payment of accounts ($)     258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

b. Calculate payments to suppliers assuming a 90-day payables period. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

A 90-day payables period implies that the payment has be made within the next 90 days or within one quarter or the same quarter. Therefore, we have:

                                                 Q1               Q2             Q3            Q4

Order (30% of Sales) ($)      258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

Payment of accounts ($)     258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

c. Calculate payments to suppliers assuming a 60-day payables period.

A 60-day payables period implies the payment for the Order in each of the quarters has to be made in the same quarter.

Therefore, we have:

                                                 Q1               Q2             Q3            Q4

Order (30% of Sales) ($)      258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

Payment of accounts ($)     258.00       282.00       270.00    300.00

Note:

It can be observed that the answer look the same for all the questions.
