Answer:

a) 16%

b) 2.25

c) Increase in expected market risk premium

Explanation:

Expected standard deviation of market return = 20%

measure of risk aversion ( A ) = 4

a) Determine a reasonable  expected market risk premium

= A * ( std ) ^2

= 4 * ( 20%)^2

=  16%

b) determine Value of A

market risk premium = A * ( std )^2

∴ A = 9% / ( 20% ) ^2

      = 0.09 / 0.04

      = 2.25

c) If investors become more risk tolerant the expected market risk premium will increase

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Explanation:

Year-end plan assets were $4,250,000

At the beginning of the year, plan assets were $3,974,000

So Actual Return on Plan Assets = (4,250,000 - 3,974,000) - (420,000 - 365,000)

Actual Return on Plan Assets = 276,000 - (55,000)

Actual Return on Plan Assets = 221,000
