Answer:
Expected market return = 9.8%
Explanation:
The expected return on the market can be worked out using the Capital Asset Pricing Model.
<em>The capital asset pricing model is a risk-based model. Here, the return on equity is dependent on the level of reaction of the the equity to changes in the return on a market portfolio. These changes are captured as systematic risk. The magnitude by which a stock is affected by systematic risk is measured by beta.
</em>
Under CAPM, Ke= Rf + β(Rm-Rf)
Rf-risk-free rate (treasury bill rate)- 4.4%
β= Beta - 1.20
Rm= Return on market.- ?
Applying this model, we have
11%= 4.4%+ (R-4.4%)×1.20
0.11-0.044= 1.20×(R-0.04)
0.07
= 1.20R-0.048
Collect like terms
0.07+0.048 = 1.2R
Divide both sides by 1.20
R= (0.07+0.048)/1.20
R=9.83%
Expected market return = 9.8%
Answer:
(C) debit to Foreign-Currency Transaction Loss-$1040
Explanation:
Foreign currency related Financial assets and financial liabilities are usually revalued with any difference as a result of the exchange rates posted as a gain or loss in the income statement.
On transaction date, cost of assets
= 520000 * $0.034
On payment date, the amount paid
= 520000 * $0.036
The amount paid is higher than the liability recorded before hence the difference is recognized as a loss on foreign exchange.
= 520000 * $0.036 - 520000 * $0.034
= $1040
Answer:
Retained earning balance at the end would be = $205,000
Explanation:
Retained earnings at the end = Retained earning at the beginning + Net income - Dividend paid
The net income would increase the balance of the retained earnings hence it is added to it.
The Dividend paid would be a cash outflow which would reduce the balance of the retained earnings, hence it is deducted from it.
So applying this to the question, we have
Retained earning balance at the end would be:
25,000 + 200,000 - 20,000 = $205,000
Retained earning balance at the end would be = $205,000
Answer:
We will get $7680(thousands)
Explanation:
Answer
If we read the given data values in the passage, it is clear that the mean annual number of smart little cars in china is 7500 and the variance is equal to 6400
The variance is given for the number of cars, but not for the profit.
So, we need to convert the numerical value(number of cars) to money value(profit)
it is given that net revenue per car is $1.2 (thousands)
So, multiplying the net revenue by number of cars
we get, variance in profit = 6400*1.2 = $7680 (thousands)
