Consider the one-factor APT. The standard deviation of returns on a well-diversified portfolio is 18%. The standard deviation on

the factor portfolio is 16%. The beta of the well-diversified portfolio is approximately:_________
Consider the single-factor APT. Stocks A and B have expected returns of 15% and 18%, respectively. The risk-free rate of return is 6%. Stock B has a beta of 1.0. If arbitrage opportunities are ruled out, stock A has a beta of:__________

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

Marianna [84]

Answer:

The rate at which to discount the payments to find sum borrowed is 12.68%

Explanation:

The discount rate to be used in computing the sum borrowed can e derived from the effective annual rate formula below:

Effective annual rate = (1 + Quoted interest rate/m)^m - 1

quoted interest rate is 8.40

m is the number of months in a year when compounding is done which is 12

effective annual rate=(1+8.40%/12)^12-1

effective annual rate=(1+0.01)^12-1

effective annual rate=(1.01)^12-1

effective annual rate=1.12682503 -1

effective annual rate=0.12682503=12.68%

David Ricardo, a nineteenth-century economist, wrote, "The price of corn is high not because a rentis paid, but a rent is paid b
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option 3: if the price of corn rises because of increased demand for corn, land rents will rise to absorb most of the extra revenue received by tenant corn farmers.

Explanation:

To begin with, in David Ricardo's statment it is established that ''the rent is paid because the price of the corn is high'' therefore it is understandable that it is stated that <em><u>the price of the corn is not a cause of the rent but it is the opposite</u></em>, the price causes the rent due to the fact that <u><em>the rent is not a cost</em></u> that has to go within the price but the price goes first and then the rent happens. Therefore that if there it an increase in the population and that causes and<em> increase in the demand of the corn, then the price will rise and consequently the rent will rise</em> to in order to obtain the most of the extra revenue that it can.

Marmol Corporation uses the allowance method for bad debts. During year 1, Marmol charged $30,000 to bad debt expense, and wrote
4vir4ik [10]

Answer: Option (d)

Explanation:

Under this case the write off will be as follow:

                                                                      Debit         Credit

Allowance for doubtful accounts                25,200  

Accounts receivables                                                     25,200

Here, in this case the Allowance for the doubtful accounts and Accounts receivables are further decreased as the outcome of the transaction made. Thus, there will be no further effect on working capital. Therefore the $30,000 that is bad debt would then be stated as the credit to allowance account. This will then decrease the working capital by $30,000.
