You purchase 150 shares for $70 a share ($10,500), and after a year the price rises to $80. Calculate the percentage return on y
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

57.14%

Explanation:

Missing word <em>"25 percent."</em>

<em />

Gain on the stock = (150*$80) - $10,500

Gain on the stock = $ 12,000 - $10,500

Gain on the stock = $1,500

If Margin requirement is 25%, The Margin = 10,500*25% = $2,625

Return on Investment = $1,500/$2,625 * 100 = 0.571429 * 100 = 57.1429% = 57.14%

Drupady [299]

Answer:

0.1875; 0.375; 0.4375

Explanation:

Given that,

Adobe Systems stock = $3,000

Dow Chemical = $6,000

Office Depot = $7,000

Total Value of stock:

= Adobe Systems stock + Dow Chemical + Office Depot

= $3,000 + $6,000 + $7,000

= $16,000

Portfolio weights of Adobe Systems stock:

= Value of Adobe Systems stock ÷ Total Value of stock

= $3,000 ÷ $16,000

= 0.1875

Portfolio weights of Dow Chemical stock:

= Value of Dow Chemical stock ÷ Total Value of stock

= $6,000 ÷ $16,000

= 0.375

Portfolio weights of Office Depot stock:

= Value of Dow Chemical stock ÷ Total Value of stock

= $7,000 ÷ $16,000

= 0.4375
