You have the following rates of return for a risky portfolio for several recent years. Assume that the stock pays no dividends.

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The geometric average return for the period 2.60%.

Explanation:

Note: The data in this question are merged together. They are therefore sorted before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question with the sorted data.

Also note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of the return for each year.

In the attached excel file, return is calculated using the following formula:

Return = (Current year price - Previous year price) / Previous year price

The formula for calculating the geometric average return is given as follows:

Geometric average return = [(1 + R1)(1 + R2)(1 + R3)...(1 + Rn)]^(1/n) – 1 ……….. (1)

Where;

Ri = Return over the years I, where i = 1, 2, 3, …. n

n = number of years = 3

R1 = 2012 return = 0.10

R2 = 2013 return = -0.0727272727272727

R3 = 0.0588235294117647

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Geometric average return = ((1 + 0.10)(1 - 0.0727272727272727)(1 + 0.0588235294117647))^(1/3) – 1

Geometric average return = (1.10 * 0.927272727272727 * 1.0588235294117647)^(1/3) – 1

Geometric average return = 1.07999999999999^0.333333333333333 - 1

Geometric average return = 1.02598556800602 - 1

Geometric average return = 0.02598556800602 = 0.0260, or 2.60%

Therefore, the geometric average return for the period 2.60%.

Widget Co has a market capitalization of $ 100M. It does a 5-for-1 stock split. It then does a 1- for-25 reverse stock split. Fi

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer: $100M

Explanation:

This is a bit of a trick question but when you come into contact with such questions remember this, stock splits do not change the total Market Capitalization. Market Cap is the total cash value of the company's stock in the market. A split would increase the number of shares outstanding but the market cap will remain the same because the shares will decrease in value.

On December 31, 2021, Larry's Used Cars had balances in Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts of $53,600

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

$1,420

Explanation:

The computation of the bad debt expense is shown below:

As we know that

Ending balance of allowance for uncollectible accounts = Beginning balance of allowance for uncollectible accounts + bad debt expense - written off amount

$1,280 = $1,325 + bad debt expense - $1,465

So, the bad debt expense for the year 2022 is $1,420

Basically we applied the above formula to find out the bad debt expense

A car crash woke john from his afternoon nap. when he looked out of his apartment window, he saw several people milling around t

Ronch [10]

John's reaction is an example of the bystander effect.
It means that he will just continue staring at the accident because he is curious as to what happened and he wants to see how the event is resolved, however, he is not really willing to do anything to help the people involved - he will just assume someone else will do that.
