Asset A and B have expected returns of 5% and 3% per year respectively. Their annual volatilities are both 20% and the correlati
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

1. Weight of A=0.5, Weight of B= 0.5

2. Asset A has the highest shape ratio. The weight of A and B in the optimal risky portfolio that has the highest shape ratio is:

Weight of A= 0.105, Weight of B= 0.895

Explanation:

Expected return of Asset A= 5%Expected return of Asset A= 5%

Expected return of Asset B= 3%

Annual volatilities of Asset A= 20%

Annual votalities of Asset B= 20%

1. Correlation coefficient = 30% = 0.3 < 1

Risk Free Rate = 1% =0.01

1. Weight of A and B in portfolio with minimal risk is:

Weight of A= β^2B - Cov (XAXB) /β^2A + β^2B - 2Cov (XAXB)

Therefore,

CovXAXB = PAB (Volatility of A) (Volatility of B)

= 0.3 × 0.2 × 0.2

= 0.012

Hence,

Weight of A= (0.2)^2 - 0.012 / (0.2)^2 + (0.2)^2 - 2(0.012)

Weight of A= 0.04 - 0.012 / 0.04 + 0.04 - 0.024

= 0.028/ 0.08 - 0.024

= 0.028/ 0.056

=0.5

Weight of A = 0.5

Weight of B= 1 - Weight of A

Weight of B= 1 - 0.5

Weight of B= 0.5

2. Shape ratio of A= RA - Rf / β

= 0.05 - 0.01 / 2

= 0.04/2

= 0.02 =20%

Shape ratio of B= RB - Rf / β

= 0.03 - 0.01/ 2

0.02 / 2

=0.01 = 10%

So, Asset A has the highest shape ratio

Cov (XAXB) = PAB (Volatility of A) (Volatility of B)

= 0.03 × 0.2 × 0.1

= 0.006

Weight of A= β^2B - Cov (XAXB) /β^2A + β^2B - 2Cov (XAXB)

Weight of A = (0.1)^2 - 0.006 / (0.2)^2 + (0.1)^2 - 2(0.006)

= 0.01 - 0.006 / 0.04 +0.01 - 0.012

= 0.004/ 0.05 - 0.012

= 0.004/ 0.038

= 0.105

Weight of A = 0.105

Weight of B= 1 - 0.105

Weight of B= 0.895

Lansing, Inc. provides the following information for one of its department's operations for June (no new material is added in De
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

See Explanation Below

Explanation:

Given

Beginning inventory units = 15,000 units

Beginning Inventory Completed = 60% completed

Current work = 35,000 units started

Ending inventory = 5,000 units

Ending inventory completed = 20% completed

Using FIFO, the production cost report is as follows

First, we determine the physical flow of units;.

This is listed out as follows;

Beginning WIP Inventory: 15,000 units

Unit started this period: 35,000 units

Total units to account for = 50,000 units

Units completed and transferred out: 45,000 units

Ending WIP Inventory: 5,000 units

Total accounted units: 50,000 units

Unit completed and transferred out is calculated by;

Total units to account for - Ending WIP Inventory

= 50,000 units - 5,000 units

= 45,000 units

Calculating the EUP (Equivalent Unit of Production)

Equivalent Unit to complete beginning WIP Inventory

Direct Materials: 15,000 (100% - 100%) = 0 EUP (Direct)

Conversions: 15,000 (100% - 60%) = 6,000 EUP (Conversion)

Equivalent Unit started and completed: 30,000 EUP (Direct)

Equivalent Unit started and completed: 30,000 EUP (Conversion)

Equivalent Unit in ending WIP Inventory:

Direct: 5,000 units * 100% = 5,000 EUP (Direct)

Conversion: 5,000 * 20% = 1,000 EUP (Conversion)

Total Equivalent Unit of Production: 0 EUP + 30,000 EUP + 5,000 EUP = 35,000 EUP (Direct)

Total Equivalent Unit of Production: 6,000 EUP + 30,000 EUP + 1,000 EUP = 37,000 EUP (Conversion)

Note that;

Equivalent Unit started and completed is calculated as follows;

Total Units account for (45,000) - Beginning Unit (15,000) = 30,000 EUP
