Answer: capital loss of $200000

Explanation:

To solve the question goes thus:

Value of shares that was received from Jupiter = 300000 × $2 = $600,000

Cash received = $100,000

Total gotten = $700,000

We then deduct the value of stock that was foregone by Mars. This will be:

= $700,000 - $900,000

= - $200,000

Therefore, a capital loss of $200,000 would be disclosed in the Income tax return.

The stock of Big Joe's has a beta of 1.64 and an expected return of 13.30 percent. The risk-free rate of return is 5.8 percent.
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

expected return on market = 0.10373 or 10.373%

Explanation:

Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.  

The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * rpM

Where,

  • rRF is the risk free rate
  • rpM is the market risk premium

We will first calculate the market risk premium using the required rate of return for stock, beta and risk free rate and plugging these values in the formula above.

0.1330 = 0.058 + 1.64 * rpM

0.1330 - 0.058 = 1.64 *rpM

0.075 = 1.64 * rpM

rpM = 0.075 / 1.64

rpM = 0.04573 or 4.573%

As we know that the beta for market is always equal to 1, we can calculate the rate of return for market as,

expected return on market = 0.058 + 1 * 0.04573

expected return on market = 0.10373 or 10.373%

Georgina consumes only grapefruits and pineapples. Her utility function is U (x comma y )equals x to the power of 0.8 end expone
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

21

Explanation:

Given that:

The utility function U(x, y) = x^{0.8} y^{0.2}

The budget line income is:

105=4x +3y

The equation MRTS is:

\dfrac{MU_x}{MU_y } =\dfrac{ Px}{Py}

where;

MU_x(x,y) = 0.8 \times x^{0.8-1}\times y^{0.2} \\ \\ \implies 0.8 \times x^{-0.2}\times y^{0.2}

MU_y(x,y) = 0.2 \times x^{0.8}\times y^{0.2-1} \\ \\ \implies 0.8 \times x^{0.8}\times y^{-0.8}

and:

P_y= 3

P_x = 4

∴

Using the equation MRTS:

\dfrac{MU_x}{MU_y } =\dfrac{ Px}{Py}

\dfrac{ 0.8 \times x^{-0.2}\times y^{0.2} }{0.8 \times x^{0.8}\times y^{-0.8}} = \dfrac{4}{3}

\dfrac{4y }{x} = \dfrac{4}{3}

4x = 12y

x = 12y/4

x = 3y

Replacing the value of x into the budget line income, we have:

105 = 4x + 3y

105 = 4(3y) + 3y

105 = 12y + 3y

105 = 15y

y = 105/15

y = 7

Then, from x = 3y

x = 3(7)

x = 21

Thus, she will consume 21 gapefruits
