Assume that you manage a risky portfolio with an expected rate of return of 15% and a standard deviation of 30%. The T-bill rate

is 10%. Suppose that you have a client that prefers to invest in your risky portfolio a proportion (y) of his total investment budget so that his overall portfolio will have an expected rate of return of 15%. What is the investment proportion

Answer:

The proportion of the investment is 100%.

Explanation:

This can be calculated using the following formula:

Rportfolio = (y * Rrisky) + ((1 - y) * Ttbill) ..................... (1)

Where;

Rportfolio = Overall portfolio expected rate of return = 15%. or 0.15

Rrisky = risky portfolio expected rate of return = 15%, or 0.15

Ttbill = T-bill rate = 10%, or 0.10

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for y, we have:

0.15 = (y * 0.15) + ((1 - y) * 0.10)

0.15 = 0.15y + 0.10(1 - y)

0.15 = 0.15y + 0.10 - 0.10y

0.15 - 0.10 = 0.15y - 0.10y

0.05 = 0.05y

y = 0.05 / 0.05

y = 1.00, or 100%

Therefore, the proportion of the investment is 100%.

Marginal revenue can become negative for A. both competitive and monopoly firms. B. monopoly firms but not for competitive firms
Lena [83]

Answer:

B. monopoly firms but not for competitive firms.

Explanation:

Marginal revenue can become negative for monopoly firms but not for competitive firms.

A monopolist’s marginal revenue is always less than or equal to the price  of the good.

Marginal revenue is the amount of revenue the firm receives for  each additional unit of output. It is the difference between total revenue – price  times quantity – at the new level of output and total revenue at the previous  output (one unit less).

Since the monopolist’s marginal cost curve lies below its demand curve.  When a monopoly increases amount sold, it has two effects on total revenue:

– the output effect: More output is sold, so Q is higher.

– the price effect: To sell more, the price must decrease, so P is lower.

For a competitive firm there is no price effect. The competitive firm can sell  all it wants at the given price.

So the marginal revenue on a monopolist's additional unit sold is lower than the price, <u>because it gets less revenue for selling additional units.</u>

<u>Marginal revenue can become negative – that is, the total revenue decreases from one output level to the next. </u>

What are the market trends and growth of netflix​
Llana [10]
Netflix's products are targeted towards the lower-middle class and up, specifically targeted to people (or households) with income levels of $30,000 and up. In addition, Netflix offers movie and TV titles that appeal to many racial/ethnic groups with its array of foreign and international films.

A great example of market saturation is Netflix. While new streaming services are in the introduction and growth stages, the market originator has reached its saturation point.

In the fourth quarter of 2019, Netflix accounted for 40% of the market. By Q3 2020, it was at 36%. Below is where each major streaming service stands in market share in the US as of Q4 2020, according to data from Antenna: Netflix — 34%

If the same number of units of good Y must be given up as each successive unit of good X is produced, then the PPF for these two
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

PPF : Downward Sloping Straight Line

Explanation:

PPF is the locus of product combinations that an economy can produce, given resources & technology.

It is downward sloping : Because of inverse relationship between two goods- if one has to be increased other has to be decreased , because of same resources & technology.

Marginal Opportunity Cost (Slope of PPC): is ratio of a good sacrifised to gain each additional unit of the other good.

∆ Good sacrifised / ∆ Good gained

If this ratio is same i.e constant amount of a good is sacrifised to gain an additional amount of the other one , the slope of PPC is constant & it is a straight line

Eg : Good1    Good2     MOC [∆Good2/∆Good1]

      0               20             _        

      10             10           -10/10 = -1                  (10-20)/(10-0)

       20              0           -10/10 = -1                   (0-10)(/20-10)

So , same (1) good 2 is sacrifised to attain a good 1 each time.

However Generally: MOC is increasing , because of assumption that resources are unequally efficient in various goods production - shifting good from efficient to inefficient increases sacrifise each time. This makes PPC usually concave.
