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

iris [78.8K]

Answer: is correct

Explanation: Tariff refers to the tax imposed on import and export activities. These are a type of trade restrictions that are made to regulate the domestic market of the country.

The tariff imposed on export will increase the price of the exported goods in the domestic market. Thus a majority population in the country will not purchase it and the domestic producers will benefit from this situation. In such a case, the domestic producers will make unreasonable profits from domestic consumers.

Serjik [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

first will need to calculate the Fv future value of this CD

Fv = Pv ( 1 + R )^n n = 4 /12 = 0.333333,  r, rate = 4.5/100 = 0.045

Fv = $ 630000 ( 1+ 0.045)^0.33333 = $ 639311.69

a) the current value at 5 % Pv = Fv / ( 1+r)ⁿ

Pv = $ 639311.69  / ( 1.05)^0.3333 = $ 628998.41

b) the current price at 4.25% = $ 639311.69  / ( 1.0425)^0.3333 = $ 630503.20
