Answer:

r = 0.235 or 23.5%

Explanation:

Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.  

The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * rpM

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • rpM is the market return

r = 0.06 + 2.5 * 0.07

r = 0.235 or 23.5%

Bas_tet [7]
The future amount of an investment with compound interest can be calculated through the equation,

     F = P x (1 + ieff)^n

where F is the future amount, P is the current value of the money, ieff is the effective interest (rate per year), and n is the number of years.

From the equation, all are given except for the effective interest, i. Now, substituting the known values,
  14,398.87 = (7,775) x (1 + ieff)^14

The value of ieff from the equation is 0.044999. 

Since the value of the ieff when translated to percentage is equal to 4.5% as well, the interest rate is compounded yearly.

Suppose that the united states and canada each produce only two products, televisions and food. The united states can produce 10
Alex

Answer: Trade between the two countries is beneficial when United States trade food to Canada and Canada would trade televisions to the United States.

Explanation: In international trade, each country will produce a good in which it has a comparative advantage (lower opportunity cost).

Opportunity cost of food is,

Unites states = \frac{100}{150} = 0.66

Canada = \frac{300}{330} = 0.90

Opportunity cost of television is,

Unites states = \frac{150}{100} = 1.5

Canada = \frac{330}{300} = 1.1

Since, opportunity cost of food is lower in the United states, United states will export food.

Opportunity cost of television is lower in Canada, Canada will export television to the United States.
