Answer:

Portfolio´s beta: 1.16

Explanation:

Stock         Percent         Beta Weighted Beta

  X                    36%          1,19                   0,43

  Y                    18%         0,87           0,16

  Z                    46%          1,26           0,58

                                                     1,16

The portfolio beta is obtained by the sum of the individual betas of each stock considering it´s  percent on the portfolio (weighted beta).

It represents the relative volatility of a portfolio relative to the market. More than one means more volatile and less than one means less volatile than the market.

The more conservative a firm's management is, the higher its total debt to total capital ratio [measured as (Short-term debt Lon
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The conservative approach is that the firm has greater level of working capital investment than the competitor or industry average. So to fund the higher level of working capital the company has a set of policy and targets related to the level of debt level which means the company will not be willing to borrow further money if their borrowing exceeds the set limit or benchmark. They might use the equity instruments (Preferred stock or Common equity) to fund the higher level of working capital.

So their no absolute argument whether the denominator will increase or the nominator will increase in the Total debt to capital ratio. Hence the statement is false.

2. Lereve Company has recorded the following information about the results of its operations for the fourth quarter: Sales reven
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Lereve Company

Segmented Income Statement for the fourth quarter:

                                   Total Company  Western Division  Eastern Division  

Sales revenues           $200,000              $80,000              $120,000

Variable cost of sales     60,000                 30,000                  30,000

Contribution                $140,000               $50,000               $90,000

Fixed costs:

Common                     $100,000               $25,000               $75,000

Traceable                       50,000                  20,000                 30,000    

Net Income (Loss)       ($10,000)                 $5,000              ($15,000)

The results show that the Eastern Division made a net loss of $15,000 and the Western Division raked in a net income of $5,000, which resulted in the company-wide net loss of $10,000.  This loss could be traced to the allocated common fixed costs of the division, because its contribution to fixed costs was substantial and better than the Western Division's.

Explanation:

When the results of the operations of a divisional company like Lereve Company are prepared in segmental form, the performance pictures become clearer.  Management is enabled to focus on the segments or the factors that are generating the loss to the company.  Perhaps, as in this case, the problem may not be with the division, but the allocation of fixed costs to the divisions.  It can still be traced to the company as a whole, since it is generating much more fixed costs than it could afford from its revenue.

   additional paid-in        4,200,000 credit

   in excess of Par-value
