Answer:

Actual Rate= $9.5  per hour

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Actual number of hours= 6,300

Direct labor price variance= $3,150 unfavorable

Standard rate= $9 per direct labor hour

<u>To calculate the actual rate, we need to use the direct labor rate (price) variance formula:</u>

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity

-3,150 = (9 - Actual Rate)*6,300

-3,150 = 56,700 - 6,300Actual Rate

-59,850 = -6,300Actual Rate

-59,850/-6,300 = Actual Rate

$9.5 = Actual Rate

There are three economy situations and two stocks Information is as follows Economy Stock A Stock B Booming 0.3 10 20 Neutral 0.
Bumek [7]

Answer:

a) A = 4.50% and B = 2.00%

b) SD for A = 4.15 %

c) Portfolio Return = 3.0%

Explanation:

a) Expected Returns for Both A and B respectively:

In order to calculate the expected returns, let's categorize the given data first.

Economy        Probability      Stock A       Stock B

Booming            0.30               10%               20%

Neutral               0.30                5%                 0%

Recession          0.40                 0%                -10% (not 10%)

So,

Expected Return for Stock A:

A =   Sum of (all Probability x Stock A)

A = (0.30 x 0.10) + (0.30 x 0.05) + (0.40 x 0.00)

A = 0.045

<u><em>A = 4.50 % </em></u>

Return for Stock B:

B = Sum of all Probability x Stock B

B = (0.30 x 0.20) + (0.30 x 0.00) + (0.40 x -0.10)

B = 0.002

<u>B = 2.0%</u>  

<em>b) Standard Deviation /Risk for Stock A:</em>

SD for A = Sum (Square Root (Probability*(Stock A Return - Expected Return of Stock A)²) )

SD for A = \sqrt{0.30*(0.10-0.045)^2 + 0.30*(0.05-0.045)^2+0.40*(0.00-0.045)^2}

SD for A = 0.0415

<u><em>SD for A = 4.15%</em></u>

c) Portfolio Return Given that:

                                        Value          Weight         Return

Stock A                          4000              0.4               4.50%

Stock B                          6000             0.6                 2.0%

                                      10000

Portfolio Return =  Sum of ( Weight x Return)

                          = (0.4 x 0.045) + (0.6 x 0.02)

                          = 0.03

<em><u>Portfolio Return = 3%</u></em>

lapo4ka [179]

Terp Bank obtains a relatively large portion of its funds from conventional demand deposits as it creates many branches with many employees to attract demand deposits. Its interest expenses should be relatively low while its noninterest; expenses should be relatively high.

Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

A withdrawal deposit is a banking or any other financial institution balance whereby the depositor may, without any notice or notification, remove the deposited funds from those in the account within seven days.

An example of demand deposits is checking accounts. We require the depositor to withdraw money at any moment. The volume of transactions a creditor is allowed on these transactions is infinite (even though each transaction might be paid by a bank).

For buyers, deposits of demand are essential because sometimes they house funds for daily expenses. Under no scenario, depositors could not purchase items on-demand without informing the bank first.

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

St deviation of stock σ = √( β² x σ₁² + σ₂² )

σ₁ = standard deviation of market = .15 and σ₂ is standard deviation of firm

Putting the values given

.30 = √ ( β² x .15² + .10² )

.09 =  β² x .0225 + .01

β² x .0225 = .08

β² = 3.5555

β = 1.88
