Answer: 1.66

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the beta of the stock will be calculated as follows:

Expected return = 16.2%

Market return = 11.2%

Inflation rate = 3.1%

Risk-free rate of return = 3.6%

We should note that:

Expected return = risk-free rate + Beta × (market rate- risk-free rate)

Therefore,

16.2% = 3.6% + Beta × (11.2% - 3.6%)

16.2% = 3.6% + Beta × 7.6%

16.2% - 3.6% = Beta × 7.6%

12.6% = Beta × 7.6%

Beta = 12.6% / 7.6%

Beta = 1.66

maria [59]

Answer:

$11,000

Explanation:

The basis an investment refers to the asset's original value which is adjusted for capital distributions, stock slits, and dividends.

The J.D.'s basis in his Clampett, Inc. stock after all transactions in 2020 can therefore be computed by adjusting the original basis as follows:

Basis after all the 2020 transactions = Original basis or 1 Jan. 2020 basis + Allocated income - Distribution = $48,000 + $12,000 - $49,000 = $11,000

Therefore, .D.'s basis in his Clampett, Inc., stock after all transactions in 2020 is $11,000.

The following balances come from the financial statements of Way Industries: Sales revenue $850,000; Accounts receivable $280,00
finlep [7]

Answer: 12

Explanation: The ratio of  number of times an inventory is used or sold in a specific period , generally a year, is called inventory turnover ratio. It can be computed by using the following formula :-

= \frac{cost\of\goods\sold}{average\inventory}

where,

cost of goods sold = beginning inventory + net purchase - ending inventory

                               = $50,000 + $460,000 - $30,000

                               = $ 480,000

average inventory  = \frac{beginning\invetory+closing\inventory}{2}

                               =\frac{50000+30000}{2}

                               = $40,000

so,

inventory turnover ratio = \frac{480000}{40000}

                                       = 12
