A 10% 20% 1.0
B 10% 10% 1.0
C 12% 12%1.4
Portfolio AB has half of its funds invested in Stock A and half in Stock B. Portfolio ABC has one third of its funds invested in each of the three stocks.

Answer and Explanation:
The journal entry to record the given transaction is as follows
Retained earning Dr (0.30 million × $54) $16.2 million
To Common stock (0.30 million × $1) $0.3 million
To Additional paid in capital in excess of par (0.30 million × $53) $15.9 million
(Being the stock dividend is declared)

Answer: $1639.3
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Bank A quotes a bid rate of $0.300 and an ask rate of $0.305 for the Malaysian ringgit (MYR) and that bank B quotes a bid rate of $0.306 and an ask rate of $0.310 for the ringgit.
The profit for an investor that has $500,000 available to conduct locational arbitrage goes thus:
Purchasing Malaysian ringgit (MYR) from bank A at the ask rate will be:
= $500,000/$0.305
= 1,639,344.3
Selling the Malaysian ringgit (MYR) at bank B based on the ask rate will be:
= 1,639,344.3 × 0.306
= $501,639.3
The profit for an investor that has $500,000 available to conduct locational arbitrage will be:
= $501,639.3 - $500,000
= $1639.3
