Answer:

The beta is 1

Explanation:

The computation of beta using the CAPM model is shown below:

As we know that

Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × Market risk premium

9.5% = 5% + Beta × 9.0%

9.5% - 5% = Beta × 9.0%

9.0% = Beta × 9.0%

So, the beta is 1

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered

irina [24]

Answer: Proposal C

Explanation:

The way to solve this is to calculate the Present Values of all these payments. The smallest present value is the best.

Proposal A.

Periodic payment of $2,000 makes this an annuity.

Present value of Annuity = Annuity * ( 1 - ( 1 + r ) ^ -n)/r

= 2,000 * (1 - (1 + 0.5%)⁻⁶⁰) / 0.5%

= $103,451.12

Proposal B

Present value = Down payment + present value of annuity

= 10,000 + [2,200 * ( 1 - ( 1 + 0.5%)⁻⁴⁸) / 0.5%]

= 10,000 + 93,676.70

= $103,676.70

Proposal C

Present value = Present value of annuity + Present value of future payment

= [500 * (1 - (1 + 0.5%)⁻³⁶) / 0.5%] + [116,000 / (1 + 0.5%)⁶⁰]

= 16,435.51 + 85,999.17

= $‭102,434.68‬

<em>Proposal C has the lowest present value and so is best. </em>
