Answer:

J = 0.422

K = 0.58

Explanation:

When a portfolio is said to have risk that is equal to market, this means that the beta is equal to 1.

Let us define the weight of stock J = x

Let us define the Weight of stock K = (1-x)

To get the The Beta of portfolio = (x*1.26) + ((1-x)*0.81) = 1

When we open the brackets,

1.26x + 0.81 - .81x = 1

1.26x-0.81x = 1-0.81

0.45x = 0.19

To get x we divide through by 0.45

X = 0.422

Therefore the Weight of stock J = 0.422

Then the Weight of stock K = 1 - 0.422 = 0.578

Approximately 0.58

Suppose that the federal budget deficit increases. the increase in government borrowing will cause interest rates to ▼ rise fall
yan [13]

Answer:

Rise; More attractive; More; Less; Rise

Explanation:

Suppose that the federal budget deficit increases.

So, there is a need to borrow funds and this will increase the government borrowings. The higher government borrowings will lead to cause the interest rate to rise.

In an open economy, the buyers in the foreign countries are buying more U.S bonds as they will receive higher rate of return from investing in bonds. Hence, the U.S bonds are becoming more attractive to the foreign buyers because of the higher interest rate.

This will reduce the value of U.S exports, hence, the trade deficit (Value of imports - Value of exports) will rise further.
