Answer:
1.41 Approx
Explanation:
The computation of the beta for the stock T is shown below:
Beta of portfolio = Respective betas × Respective investment weights
1.30 = (0.14 × 0.81) + (0.5 × 1.36) + (0.36 × beta of the Stock T)
1.30 =0.7934 + (0.36 × beta of the Stock T)
beta of the Stock T = (1.3 - 0.7934) ÷ 0.36
= 1.41 Approx
We simply multiplied the beta of each stock with its investment weights order to calculate the beta of the stock T as portfolio beta is given
Answer:
D) would reduce the multiplier. If the Fed wanted to offset the effect of this on the size of the money supply, it could have bought bonds
Explanation:
Banks "create" money when they use their clients' money to make loans to other clients. If the banks' clients started to withdraw significant amounts of money, that would reduce the banks' capability of creating money which in turn would reduce the money multiplier. If the FED had bought bonds from private investors then they would have increased the money supply and probably also increased the money multiplier.
Answer:
The bonds sell for $825.63
Explanation:
To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. The bonds are annual bonds so the coupon payment is per year.
Coupon Payment = 1000 * 0.057 = $57
Total periods = 15
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 57 * [( 1 - (1+0.077)^-15) / 0.077] + 1000 / (1+0.077)^15
Bond Price = $825.63
