Answer:

Beta= 1.195

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Stock Investment Beta

A $150,000 1.40

B $10,000 0.80

C $140,000 1.00

D $75,000 1.20

Total $375,000

<u>First, we need to calculate the proportion of investment of each stock:</u>

A= 150,000/375,000= 0.40

B= 10,000/375,000= 0.027

C= 140,000/375,000= 0.373

D= 75,000/375,000= 0.2

<u>Now, to calculate the beta of the portfolio, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Beta= (proportion of investment A*beta A) + (proportion of investment B*beta B)... etc

Beta= (0.4*1.4) + (0.027*0.8) + (0.373*1) + (0.2*1.2)

Beta= 1.195

The basic laws of forecasting help to avoid misapplication or misrepresentation of forecast results. Law 3 states, __________. M
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

A forecast is an estimate of the future level of some variable.

It is important to forecast because:

-Asses long-term capacity needs

-Develop budgets, hiring plans

-Plan production or order materials

There are types of forecast

Demand, depend on the firm level or the market level.

Supply, depend on number of current producers and suppliers, projected aggregate supply levels, and technological and political trends.

Price, depend on cost of supplies and services, market price for firm´s product or service.

There are 4 laws of forecasting, that help to avoid misapplication or misrepresentation of forecast results:

1-Forecast are almost always wrong by some amount (but they are still useful). Even under the best of conditions, no forecasting approach can predict the exact level of future demand, supply, or price.

2-Forecast for the near term tend to be more accurate. This law recognizes that in the near term, the factors that affect the forecast variable are not likely to change greatly.

3-Forecast for group of products or services tend to be more accurate. Many businesses have found that it is easier and more accurate to forecast for groups of products or services than it is to forecast for specific ones.

4-Forecast are no substitute for calculated values.

Red Builders agrees to construct a new building for Blue Co. for a total contract price of $6,000,000. The estimated constructio
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: $300,000

Explanation:

Total expected costs = cost incurred to date + estimated cost to complete

                                   = 1,200,000 + 3,600,000

                                   = 4,800,000

Percentage of completion=\frac{Cost\ incurred\ to\ date}{Total\ expected\ cost}\times 100

Percentage of completion=\frac{1,200,000}{4,800,000}\times 100

                                                 = 0.25

                                                 = 25%

Profit = contract revenue - Total expected costs

         = $6,000,000 - 4,800,000

         = $1,200,000

Cumulative gross profit = Profit × Percentage of completion

                                       = $1,200,000 × 0.25

                                       = $300,000

Therefore, Red Builders should have recognized profit at the end of year 1 in the amount of $300,000.

Natali [406]

The unemployment rate is 6 percent.
