Answer:

Portfolio Beta = 1.333

Explanation:

The portfolio beta is the function of the weighted average of the individual stock betas that form up the portfolio. The beta is the measure of the responsiveness of the stock in comparison  with the market for any change happening in the market or due to systematic risk. We can calculate the portfolio beta as follows,

Portfolio Beta = wA * Beta of A  +  wB * Beta of B + ... + wN * Beta of N

Where,

  • w refers to the weight of each stock in the portfolio

Portfolio Beta = 0.2 * 0.75  +  0.3 * 1.9  +  0.15 * 1.38  +  0.35 * 1.16

Portfolio Beta = 1.333

jekas [21]

Answer: Number of months = 66.87 months

Explanation:

Given that,

Monthly Payment = $500

Interest rate(r) = 1.95% per month

Current Balance = $18,500

Number of months(t) = ?

Current\ balance = Monthly\ payment\times(\frac{1-present\ value\ factor}{r})

Current\ balance = Monthly\ payment\times(\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+r)^{t}} }{r})

18,500 = 500\times(\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+0.0195)^{t}} }{0.0195})

\frac{18,500}{500}\times0.0195=1-\frac{1}{1.0195^{t} }

\frac{1}{1.0195^{t}}=1-0.7215

1.0195^{t}=\frac{1}{0.2785}

1.0195^{t}=3.5906

Taking log on both side

t log(1.0195) = log(3.5906)

t = \frac{0.5551}{0.0083}

t = 66.87 months

Suppose that national income in a country is $300 billion, taxes paid by households is $130 billion, household consumption is $1
zhenek [66]

Answer:

$180 billion

Explanation:

The consumption is an act of spending the money from an income. The marginal propensity to consume is the proportion increase in the amount that a consumer is spending. The savings then decline if the consumption increases. In the given scenario the consumption will not raise even if there is an increase in national income and taxes are kept fixed at previous level. This is because marginal propensity to consume is same.

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

$16,050

Explanation:

The computation of the total amount of the period cost is shown below:

= Sales commission per unit × number of units sold + Fixed selling and administrative expense + Variable administrative expense per unit  × number of units sold

= $1.80 × 4,500 units + $6,600 + $0.30 × 4,500 units

= $8,100 + $6,600 + $1,350

= $16,050

Assume Metro Company had a net income of​ $2,100 for the year ending December 2018. Its beginning and ending total assets were​
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

7.92%

Explanation:

The computation of the return on total assets is shown below:

Return on assets = (Net income) ÷ (average of total assets)

where,  

Net income is $2,100

Average total assets = (Beginning total assets + ending total assets) ÷ 2

= ($33,500 + $19,500) ÷ 2

= $26,500

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the ratio would equal to

= $2,100 ÷ $26,500

= 7.92%
