Answer: -0.24

Explanation:

The portfolio beta is a weighted average of the betas of the individual stocks in it.

The portfolio beta before the replacement is;

= (1.4 * 150,000/375,000) + (0.8 * 50,000/375,000) + ( 1 * 100,000/375,000) + (75,000 * 75,000/375,000)

= 0.56 + 0.11 + 0.27 + 0.24

= 1.17

After the replacement, portfolio beta will be;

=  (0.75 * 150,000/375,000) + (0.8 * 50,000/375,000) + ( 1 * 100,000/375,000) + (75,000 * 75,000/375,000)

= 0.32 + 0.11 + 0.27 + 0.24

= 0.93

The change is therefore;

= 0.93 - 1.17

= -0.24

Greeley [361]

Answer: The answer is $1,200

Explanation:

In order to calculate the Depreciation, we use the formula:

Gross investment = Net Investment + Depreciation.

Let Depreciation be represented by x

Gross investment - $6,000

Net investment - $4,800.

Therefore, we have:

6,000 = 4,800 + x

x = 6,000 - 4,800

x = 1,200

Therefore Depreciation is $1,200

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Corrected income before tax year 2017 = $65,690  

Corrected income before tax year 2018 = $102,467

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

 

Particular                                            Year 2017 ($) Year 2018 ($)    

Income before tax                                            101,000    84,100    

Corrections      

1. In 2017, unearned sales                           -36,200      

Sales added in 2018                                                      36,200    

2. In 2017, understated ending inventory    9,500      

In 2018, overstated opening inventory                      -9,500    

3. Add-wrongly charged interest expenses    13,800            13,800    

Less-actual interest expenses      

In 2017 ($230,000-$14,000)×7%=$216,000×7% -15,120      

In 2018, bond of carrying amount

       =$216,000+($15,120-$13,800)=$217,320      

In 2018, Actual interest expense=($217,320×7%)    -15,212    

4 Add-wrongly charged depreciation expenses      

In 2017=($8,100×10%)                                           810      

In 2018,=($8,100-$810)×10%+$8,500×10% =                      1,579    

Less-actual expenses for repairs                          -8,100    -8,500    

Corrected income before tax                         65,690   102,467

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

No, he doesn't show diminishing marginal utility. Yes, he shows increasing marginal utility for Coke.

Explanation:

The law of diminishing returns states that the marginal or addition satisfaction or utility derived from the consumption of a product increase until a pint and then starts to  decrease.

Units         Total utility       Marginal utility

1                    10                          10        

2                   25                         15                    

3                   50                         25

After 3 bottles, John does not show diminishing marginal utility as the marginal utility (as shown above) continues to increase with each additional bottle of coke consumed.
