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

If Project Repat were to acquire another firm that makes or sells similar products in similar markets, it would be an example of
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

b. Horizontal merger.

Explanation:

Project Repat is merging with a company that produces similar products to its own markets them in similar markets as well, this is an example of a horizontal merger that results in increased synergies between the similar firms and a greater market share opportunity.

Vertical mergers are usually not in the same industry. They would either be with the suppliers of Project Repat or customers who retail Project Repat's products.

Conglomerate is an example of diversification and usually the merging firms have different operations.

There are no information of clashes of any sort within the two  merging companies so it is uncertain whether this is a hostile takeover.

Hope that helps.

5. Based on information presented in the video, construct an argument that defends the idea that we should not lower taxes for t
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

We should not lower taxes for the wealthiest Americans because they own and run a lot of companies and businesses that we use. Lower income Americans want their leaders to understand or know what it’s like to be less wealthy so they’ll be more sympathetic towards lower income people and won’t do everything out of the want for more money. If they have to pay lower taxes, then that takes away from their ability to sympathize with lower income homes, and that would upset a lot of people.

A couple thinking about retirement decide to put aside $2,100 each year in a savings plan that earns 7% interest. In 10 years th
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

310,588.5

Explanation:

As is not said we can assume the 2,100 each year to be paid at the end of the year, and the 7% to be used as a compunded anually rate. So let´s first think just about the 2,100, as they are regulary payments, they can be seen as an anuity inmediate, the formula is as follows:

s_{n}=p*\frac{(1+i)^{n}-1 }{i}

where sn is the future value of the regular payments, i is the interest rate and n is the number of payments and p is the amount of regular payment so in this particular case we have:

s_{n}=2,100*\frac{(1+0.07)^{30}-1 }{0.07}

s_{n}==198,367.65

So now let´s think on the gift of 29,000 as it is paid on 10 years, there will remain 20 years with an investment rate of 7% compounded anually. so there we have the classic formula of future value

FV=VP*(1+i)^{n}

where FV is the future value, PV is the present value, i is the interest rate per period, and n is the number of periods. Again in this particular case we have:

FV=29,000*(1+0.07)^{20}

FV=112,220.85

so the total amont will be:

total=198,367.65+112,220.85

total=310,588.5
