Answer:

The expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 14%.

Explanation:

The expected rate of return on the market portfolio can be calculated using the following capital asset pricing model (CAPM) formula:

Er = Rf + B[E(Rm) - Rf] ...................... (1)

Where:

Er = Expected rate of return on the market portfolio = ?

Rf = Risk-free rate = 5%

B = Beta = 1

E(Rm) = Market expected rate of return = 14%

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

Er = 5 + 1[14 - 5]

Er = 5 + 1[9]

Er = 5 + 9

Er = 14%

Therefore, the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 14%.

Suppose you found out that the Japanese are on the verge of introducing their own mayonnaise substitute next month. Sam does not
fiasKO [112]

Answer: A. You would raise your policy premium substantially and Sam would not accept because he​ doesn't know about the Japanese.

Explanation:

In such a scenario as the one described above, the best option as an Insurance Agent is indeed to raise premiums substantially.

As the Japanese will most probably get to market first with the new Mayonnaise Substitute, they will have the rights to it's invention and could even patent it.

This means that Sam and SCAM will most likely suffer a loss as a result of this.

As there is such a high chance of loss, charging a substantially higher premium to enable coverage is only logical and makes business sense.

Sam does not know however that the Japanese are so far ahead and having rejected a substantially lower offer, will reject the newer, substantially higher one as well.

"on may 1, mesa verde, inc. purchased a 2-year insurance policy for $15,600. prepaid insurance was debited for the entire amount
N76 [4]

The journal entry on May 1 was:

A debit to Prepaid Insurance for 15,600


And a credit to cash for 15,600

 

Prepaid Insurance is the share of an insurance premium that has been paid in early and has not finished as of the balance sheet date.

The monthly insurance payment for two years is computed by 15,600/24 months which is $650 per month.

 

At December 31 the adjusting entry would be:

A debit to Insurance Expense 5,200

And a credit to Prepaid Insurance for 5,200

 

5,200 is computed by:

650 x 8 months (starting from May 1 to December 31) = 5,200
