1 answer:

6 0

I’m not exactly sure but- expansion is the phase of the business cycle where real GDP grows for two or more consecutive quarters, moving from a trough to a peak. This is typically accompanied by a rise in employment, consumer confidence, and equity markets. Expansion is also referred to as an economic recovery. Knowing this, it cannot be A where unemployment is high or B where inflation is high because inflation is the rise in the general level of prices where a unit of currency effectively buys less than it did in prior periods, it shouldn’t be D because the profits wouldn’t be on a decline, so making a guess using elimination it’s most likely C businesses produce more and hire workers

Answer:

The Required rate of return on Portfolio is 9.67%

Explanation:

In order to get the answer first we need to calculate the new beta of portfolio. The weight of portfolio and new stock is calculated using total value of investment in portfolio and multiplying by the total investment we get new beta.

(3M / 3.6M) x 1.10 + (0.6M / 3.6M) x 0.60 = 1.01667

Through using the CAPM Model we get risk premium of Existing Portfolio:

Required rate of return of portfolio = RF + ( Rm - RF ) x beta

10% = 5.6% + (Rm -RF) x 1.10

10% - 5.6% = (Rm - RF) x 1.10

4.4% / 1.10 = (Rm - RF)

(Rm - RF) = 4%

After getting the Risk Premium we can CAPM model equation to get New Required rate of return.

Required rate of return of portfolio = RF + ( Rm - RF ) x beta

Required rate of return of portfolio = 5.6% + 4% x 1.01667

Required Rate of Return of Portfolio = 9.67%

Answer:

$573,963

Explanation:

First, calculate the present value of the loan payments using the following formula

PVA = PMT x [ ( 1 + r )^n - 1 ] / [ r ( 1 + r )^n)

PVA = $950 x [ ( 1 + 7.1%/12 )^360 - 1] / [ 7.1%/12 ( 1 + 7.1%/12 )^360)

PVA = $141,362.32

Now calculate the difference of Value of loan and the present value of loan payment

Difference = Loan value - PV of loan payment = $210,000 - $141,362.32 = $68,637.68

This te Ballon payment in present value term, We need to determine the value at the end of the loan term.

Hence we need to calculate the future value of this payment as follow

Future value = Present vale x ( 1 + Monthly Interest rate )^numbers of months

Future value = $68,637.68 x ( 1 + 7.1%/12 )^360

Future value = $573,963.09

Future value = $573,963

Hence the ballon Payment will be $573,963
