You want your portfolio beta to be 0.90. Currently, your portfolio consists of $4,000 invested in stock A with a beta of 1.47 an

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

31.47%

Explanation:

Total investment = 4000 + 3000 +9000 = $16,000

% of investment in A = 4000/16000 = 25%

% of investment in B = 3000/16000 = 18.75%

% of investment in Asset beta and risk-free asset = 100% - 25% -18.75% = 56.25%

Let the % of investment in asset with beta of 1.74 is A, % of investment in risk free asset is B.

We have the following simultaneous equations:

0.9 = (0.25 x 1.47) + (0.1875 x 0.54) + (A x 1.74) + (B x 0)

A+B = 56.25%

From the first equation, we get A = 24.78%

--> B = 56.25% - 24.78% = 31.47%

*** Note: Portfolio beta is the weighted sum of individual asset betas, according to the proportions of the investments in the portfolio

*** Note: Beta of risk free asset is 0

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

A. 37,500 balls

B.2.67

Explanation:

A. Compution for the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls.

First step is to calculate the Contribution margin

Selling price $25 100%

Variable expenses $15 60%

Contribution margin $10 40%

($25-$15)

Now let calculate the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls using this formula

Unit sales to break even=Fixed expenses/Unit contribution margin

Let plug in the formula

Unit sales to break even=$375,000/$10

Unit sales to break even= 37,500 balls

Therefore the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls will be 37,500 balls

b. Computation for the degree of operating leverage at last year

Using this formula

Degree of operating leverage =Contribution margin/Net operating income

Degree of operating leverage=$600,000/$225,000=

Degree of operating leverage = 2.67 (rounded)

Therefore the degree of operating leverage at last year will be 2.67
