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%

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

FV= $33,094.2

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Present value (PV)= 50*100= $5,000

Number of periods (n)= 2020 - 1960= 60 years

Apreciation rate (g)= 3.2% = 0.032

<u>To calculate the value of the collection in 2020, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Future value= PV*(1 + g)^n

FV= 5,000*(1.032^60)

FV= $33,094.2

Shiffon Electronics manufactures music player. Its costing system uses two cost categories, direct materials and conversion cost
sattari [20]

Answer:

$932 per unit

Explanation:

The computation of direct materials cost per equivalent unit is shown below:-

Work in process ending 100% complete in material = 840 + 290

= 1,130

Total cost = Direct material + Direct materials costs added during March

= $346,000 + $707,500

= $1,053,500

Material Equivalent unit cost = Total cost ÷ Units to account for

= $1,053,500 ÷ 1,130

= $932 per unit

Doubling the circumference of an oil pipeline more than doubles the volume of oil that can be pumped through. This strategy is c
Alika [10]

Answer:

Economies of scale

Explanation:

Economies of scale is described as the cost benefit or advantage which is experienced through the firm, when it rises the output level. Under economies of scale, the fixed costs did not vary or change with decreases or increases in the units of the production volume and the variable costs are dependent with rise in the output.

So, in this case, when the circumference is doubled of the oil pipeline, more than the volume doubles. This technique is selected through the large firms or business as it will result in the economies of scale.

J Corp. common stock is priced at $36.50 per share. The company just paid its $0.50 quarterly dividend. Interest rates are 6.0%.
viva [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

The time (T) = 6 months = 6/12 years  = 0.5 years

Interest rate (r) = 6% = 0.06

The stock is priced [S(0)] = $36.50

The price the stock sells at 6 months (V_c) = $3.20

European call (K) = $35

The price (P) is given by:

P=V_c+K.e^{-rT}-S(0)+Dividends\\But, Dividends = 0.5*e^{-0.25*0.06}+ 0.5*e^{-0.5*0.06}\\Therefore, P=V_c+K.e^{-rT}-S(0)+0.5*e^{-0.25*0.06}+ 0.5*e^{-0.5*0.06}\\Substituting:\\P=3.2+35*e^{-0.06*0.5}-36.5+0.5*e^{-0.25*0.06}+ 0.5*e^{-0.5*0.06}\\P=3.2+33.9656-36.5+0.4926+0.4852\\P=1.64

The price of a 6-month, $35.00 strike put option is $1.65
