According to the Capital Asset Pricing Model, investors are primarily concerned with portfolio risk, not the risks of individual

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

A) True

Explanation:

The purpose of creating a portfolio is to diversify investment and achieve risk reduction as famously conveyed by the proverb, "do not put all the eggs in a single basket".

The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) was developed by William Sharpe and John Lintner. The model explains the relationship between expected return of an investor and the investment risk.

Return earned by a portfolio is the weighted average return of the individual stock returns.

CAPM helps calculate expected return of an investor by the following formula:

$Return = R_{f} \ + B(R_{m}\ -\ R_{f} )$

wherein, $R_{f} =$ Risk free rate of return yielded by treasury bonds

B = Beta, which is a coefficient which conveys the degree of responsiveness of security return in relation to the market return.

$R_{m}=$ Return which can be earned on market portfolio

Thus, the relevant risk with respect to a portfolio refers to an individual stock's share of contribution to the portfolio risk.

Answer:

High context cultures are heavily dependent on non verbal cues and subtle situational cues while communicating with others. In such cultures a person's reputation, prestige, status in society are considerably important.

Explanation:

In high context cultures are complete contrast to low context. In low context cultures, communication takes place clearly through language and rules of communication are clearly stated. While on the other hand in high context cultures, communication is subtle through body language, tone of voice, person's status etc. The use of contextual elements is more.

A company wishes to raise $27 million by issuing 15-year semi-annual coupon bonds with face value of $1,000 and coupon rate of 6

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

We first need to find out the present value of each $1,000 bond and then we can figure out how many of these bonds we require to raise $27 million

The n of payments is 15*2 because semi annual payments for 15 years so our N will be 30

The YTM is 7.70/2 because of semi annual payments = 3.85

The Face value is of 1,000 so FV= 1,000

The payments our 1000*0.066=66 divided by 2 because semi annual payments so PMT= 33

We will put these values in a financial calculator to compute the PV of a $1000 bond.

PV= 903

So now we know that the company can get $903 for each $1,000 bond as the bonds present value is 903.

Now in order to find out how many bonds need to be issued to raise 27 million we will divide 27 million by 903, as 903 is the amount we can raise by issuing a single bond.

27,000,000/903=29,900.3 so 29,901

The company will have to issue 29,901 bonds of face value $1,000 to raise $27 million

Elite Stationary employs 20 full-time employees and 10 trainees. Direct and indirect costs are applied on a professional labor

kolezko [41]

Answer:

Since cost per hour of full-time employees is $150, while cost per hour of trainees $27, clients using proportionately more full-time employees than trainees will <u>be under billed or charged for the resources or labor hour used</u>.

Explanation:

The data in the question are merged and they are first separated before answering the question as follows:

Details Budget Actual

Indirect costs $250,000 $400,000

Annual salary of each employee $200,000 $250,000

Annual salary of each trainee $40,000 $45,000

Total professional labor-hours 40,000 dlh 50,000 dlh

In normal costing system, actual costs are used.

Therefore, labor hours for each category and cost per hour can be calculated as follows:

Full-time employees total labor hours = (20/30) * 50,000 = 33,333 hours

Each full-time employee annual labor hour = 33,333/20 = 1,667 hours

Cost per hour of full-time employees = $250,000/1,667 = $150 per hour

Trainee total labor hours = (10/30) * 50,000 = 16,667 hours

Each trainee annual labor hours = 16,667/10 = 1,667 hours

Cost per hour of trainees = $45,000/1,667 = $27 per hour

Since cost per hour of full-time employees is $150, while cost per hour of trainees $27, clients using proportionately more full-time employees than trainees will <u>be under billed or charged for the resources or labor hour used</u>.
