6%. Your client chooses to invest $90,000 of her portfolio in your equity fund and $60,000 in a T-bill money market fund. What is the expected return and standard deviation of return on your client’s portfolio? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the expected return and the standard deviation is given below:

the expected return is

= $90,000 × 13% + $60,000 × 6.6%

= $15,660.00

And,

standard deviation of return is

= $90,000 × 13% × 44% + $60,000 × 6.6%

= $5,148 + $3,960

= $9,108.00

In this way it should be calculated

Brown Street Grocers has a cost of equity of 11.8 percent, a pre-tax cost of debt of 6.9 percent, and a tax rate of 35 percent.
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question is option E) 9.06% .

Explanation:

Here the cost of equity given is  - 11.8%

Pre tax cost of debt- 6.9%

Tax rate- 35%

So the after tax cost of debt - 6.9% x 65%

= 4.485%

The debt to equity ratio - .6

So the weight of debt - .6 / ( 1 + .06 )

= .375

Weight of equity - 1 / ( 1 + .06 )

= .625

Weighted average cost of capital =

Debts cost x weight of debt + Equity cost x weight of equity

= 4.485 x .375 + 11.8 x .625

= 1.681875 + 7.735

= 9.06%

Technology often offers the potential of improving efficiency and effectiveness of trans-portation companies, but water carriers
mestny [16]

Answer:

Water freight is a very important method of transportation and is the second cheapest (railroad is the cheapest). Huge volumes can be shipped at relatively low prices which is extremely important for raw materials and commodities.

The problem with water freight is that it is relatively slow though. Another problem that water freight faces is that it is cheap for medium and long distances, but uneconomical for short ones.

A great impediment for the technological progress of water freight is that most ports are obsolete and have not been updated in many years. Updating them is very expensive and many of them are public ports which doesn't help either.

Most new carrier ships (which are very high tech) are probably too big to fit into most US ports, so even if a carrier company invests huge amounts of money in them, where will they them? Technological progress must start with the ports, then water carriers should improve.

Another problem is that regulation is very loose in the US, especially regarding maritime ports.

Productivity measurement is complicated by
CaHeK987 [17]
Productivity measurement is complicated by the fact the precise units of measure are often unavailable. When you are managing productivity it can vary based on each task or the person completing the tasks. Because of this, it makes it complicated for management to measure productivity as there could be no units or no comparable units to measure. Productivity is better reflected on the outcome of what they do complete versus what they do not.
