Answer:

Beta= 1.5

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the proportional investment of each asset:</u>

Total investment= $100,000

BOA= 30,000/100,000= 0.3

Best Buy= 20,000/100,000= 0.2

Harley-Davidson= 50,000/100,000= 0.5

<u>To calculate the beta of the portfolio, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Beta= (proportion of investment A*beta A) + (proportion of investment B*beta B)...

Beta= (0.3*1.8) + (0.2*1.05) + (0.5*1.5)

Beta= 1.5

A product whose EOQ is 40 units experiences a decrease in ordering cost from $90 per order to $10 per order. The revised EOQ is:
ruslelena [56]

Answer: three times as large

Explanation:

Economic order quantity will be calculated as follows:

EOQ = ✓(2DS/H)

D = Demand in units

Here S = Ordering cost = $10

H = Holding cost

Since S = $10

Therefore, EOQ will be:

= ✓(2DS/H)

= ✓(2 × 10 × D/ H)

= ✓(20D/H)

Since we're to increase the order cost from $10 per order to $90 per order, then EOQ will be:

Since S = $90

Therefore, EOQ will be:

= ✓(2DS/H)

= ✓(2 × 90 × D/ H)

= ✓(180D/H)

3✓20DH

The revised EOQ will then be 3 times as large.

Loans can be obtained with better rates if thecapital structure is more based on equiy than in liabilities thus, the board of directors is planning ahead the future plant exansion avoiding to use cash and deteriorate his capital structure to pay up dividends.
