arlik [135]3 years ago

Answer:

7 years (to the nearest year)

Explanation:

Given that;

A = amount

P= principal

t = time

r = rate

A =3P(given in the question)

Formula for compound interest;

A = P(1 + r)^t

Substituting values;

3P = P(1 + 18/100)^t

3P/P= (1.18)^t

3 = (1.18)^t

log 3 = t log 1.18

t = log 3/log 1.18

t = 0.4771/0.0719

t = 6.6 years

t = 7 years (to the nearest year)

You have $250,000 to invest in a stock portfolio. Your choices are Stock H, with an expected return of 12.9 percent, and Stock L
prisoha [69]

Answer:

The investment in stock H will be $104837.5 while the investment in stock L will be $145162.5

Explanation:

The portfolio return is the weighted average return of the individual stocks that form up the portfolio. The weightage of each stock in the portfolio is the investment in a stock as a proportion of investment in the portfolio.

Let x be the weightage of Stock H.

Weightage of Stock L will be (1-x).

Portfolio return = wH * rH  +  wL * rL

Plugging in the values,

0.111 = x  * 0.129   +   (1-x) * 0.098

0.111 = 0.129x  +  0.098  -  0.098x

0.111- 0.098  =  0.031x

0.013 / 0.031  = x

x = 0.41935 or 41.935% rounded off to 3 decimal places

(1-x) = 1 - 0.41935  =  0.58065 or 58.065%

Investment in Stock H = 250000 * 41.935%  =  $104837.5

Investment in Stock L = 250000 * 58.065%  =   $145162.5

yaroslaw [1]

Answer: $4.38

Explanation:

Conversion costs are based on completed units so those units that are yet to be completed will be converted into equivalent units.

Units produced = Units completed and transferred out + equivalent WIP

= 169,000 + (26,000 * 79%)

= 169,000 + 20,540

= 189,540 units

Total Conversion costs = beginning conversion costs + conversion costs added during period

= 103,000 + 726,925

= $829,925‬

Conversion cost per equivalent share

= 829,925‬/189,540

= 4.3786

= $4.38
