Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1. For Beta^2

= Standard Deviation of Well Diversified Portfolio^2 ÷ Standard Deviation of factor Portfolio^2

= (18%^2 ÷ 16%^2)^0.5

= 18 ÷ 16

= 1.125 or 1.13

And,

2. Expected Return = Risk free rate + Beta ×Factor

18% = 6% + 1 × F

F = 12%

The Beta of A is

= (15% -  6%) ÷ 12%

= 0.75

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered

e-lub [12.9K]

Since the preferred stocks are cumulative in nature, the dividend amount not paid in the current year will be accumulated and paid in the next year.

Preferred dividend to be paid in 2017 = Value of preferred stock x Dividend rate

= (4700 x $50) x 5%

= 11750

Dividend to be paid in 2018 = same as 2017 as no new preferred stock issued

= 11750

Total dividend to be paid in 2018 = Dividend to be paid in 2018 + Dividend to be paid in 2017 – Dividend paid in 2017

= 11750 +11750 -7900

= $15600

52,500 AR

year of 365 days

<u>Days Sales Outstanding</u>

\frac{52,500}{425,000}\times 365 = 45.088 = 45.09

<u>Average days late</u>

Days \: Sales \: Outstanding - \: Allowed \: credit \: period = average \: days \: late

45.09 - 30 = 15.09

in average customer pays within 45 days.

That is 15.09 days above the allowed credit period.

Money laundering works by moving cash in intricate and convoluted monetary exchanges which deceive any individual who may look to follow and audit the exchanges. The goal is to make it hard to recognize the first party to the exchange, known as the launderer.
