Answer:

1. Using CAPM, the required return is;

Required return = risk free rate + beta * market risk premium

= 6% + 1.5 * 9%

= 19.5%

2. First find the portfolio beta which is a weighted average of the individual betas;

= (60% * 2.4) + (40% * 0.9)

= 1.8

Now use CAPM

= risk free rate + beta * (Market return - risk free rate)

= 4% + 1.8 * (13% - 4%)

= 20.2%

3.Geometric average can be calculated by;

=( ((1 + r1) * (1 + r2) * (1 + r3)) ^1/n) - 1

= (((1 + 6%) * (1 + 10%) * (1 - 6%)) ^ 1/3) - 1

= ‭(1.09604‬^1/3) - 1

= 3.1%

All of the following statements about the economic philosophy in Texas are true EXCEPT
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The answer is: B) The median wage in Texas is much higher than the national average. THIS STATEMENT IS FALSE.

Explanation:

If you take the facts from the Census ACS 1 year survey, the median household income in Texas is $59,206 (2017 data) and a median hourly wage of $17,06 (2016 data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics).

If you compare those numbers with the national average, the US median household income is $60,336 (the national average is $1,130 higher than the Texas median household income). Historically the Texas median household income has been lower than the national average.

If we consider the median hourly wage in Texas of $17,06 (2016 data) and we compare to the national hourly wage of $17,81 (2016 data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics) we can clearly see it´s also lower. The top ten states with the highest median hourly wage are: Alaska, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Washington, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, California, Minnesota, Hawaii, with hourly wages ranging from $22.68 to $19.24

svetoff [14.1K]
This attitude reflects ageism.
It is a type of discrimination based on somebody's age - even though Susan is more experienced than her young daughter when it comes to this job, Beverly got the job because she is younger. So, Susan has been discriminated against because she is way older than Beverly.

You purchased 300 shares of common stock on margin for $60 per share. The initial margin is 60% and the stock pays no dividend.
MrMuchimi

Answer:

- 41.67%

Explanation:

For computing the rate of return first we have to compute the initial investment which is shown below:

= Number of shares × per share ×  initial margin percentage

= 300 shares × $60 per share × 60%

= $10,800

Now Loss on sale of common stock is

= (Selling price - purchase price) × number of shares  purchased

= ($45 - $60 ) × 300  shares

= - $4,500

So the rate of return will be:

= Loss ÷ Initial Investment

= - $4,500 ÷  $10,800

= - 41.67%
