Arbor Systems and Gencore stocks both have a volatility of 33%. Compute the volatility of a portfolio with 50% invested in each

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

<h3>In case of b, c, d ,e volatility is less than that of original stock</h3>

Explanation:

The formula to compute the volatility of a portfolio

$=\sqrt{W_1^2\sigma_1^2+W_2^2\sigma_2^2+2W_1W_2\sigma_1\sigma_2*c}$

Here,

The standard deviation of the first stock is σ₁

The standard deviation of the second stock is σ₂

The weight of the first stock W₁

The weight of the second stock W₂

The correlation between the stock c

a) If the correlation between the stock is +1

$=\sqrt{W_1^2\sigma_1^2+W_2^2\sigma_2^2+2W_1W_2\sigma_1\sigma_2*c}$

$=\sqrt{(0.5\times0.33)^2+(0.5\times0.33)^2+(2\times(0.5\times 0.33)\times(0.5\times0.33)\times1} \\\\=0.33$

Hence, the volatility of the portfolio is 0.33 0r 33%

b) If the correlation between the stock is 0.50

$=\sqrt{W_1^2\sigma_1^2+W_2^2\sigma_2^2+2W_1W_2\sigma_1\sigma_2*c}$

$=\sqrt{(0.5\times0.33)^2+(0.5\times0.33)^2+(2\times(0.5\times 0.33)\times(0.5\times0.33)\times0.5} \\\\=0.29$

Hence, the volatility of the portfolio is 0.29 0r 29%

c) If the correlation between the stock is 0.00

$=\sqrt{W_1^2\sigma_1^2+W_2^2\sigma_2^2+2W_1W_2\sigma_1\sigma_2*c}$

$=\sqrt{(0.5\times0.33)^2+(0.5\times0.33)^2+(2\times(0.5\times 0.33)\times(0.5\times0.33)\times0.0} \\\\=0.23$

Hence, the volatility of the portfolio is 0.23 0r 23%

d) If the correlation between the stock is -0.50

$=\sqrt{W_1^2\sigma_1^2+W_2^2\sigma_2^2+2W_1W_2\sigma_1\sigma_2*c}$

$=\sqrt{(0.5\times0.33)^2+(0.5\times0.33)^2+(2\times(0.5\times 0.33)\times(0.5\times0.33)\times-0.5} \\\\=0.17$

Hence, the volatility of the portfolio is 0.17 or 17%

e) If the correlation between the stock is -1

$=\sqrt{W_1^2\sigma_1^2+W_2^2\sigma_2^2+2W_1W_2\sigma_1\sigma_2*c}$

$=\sqrt{(0.5\times0.33)^2+(0.5\times0.33)^2+(2\times(0.5\times 0.33)\times(0.5\times0.33)\times-1} \\\\=0$

Hence, the volatility of the portfolio is 0

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:Percentage change in the book price =7.17%

Explanation:

Initial Price of the used book = $73.25

Discounted price = $68.00

Percentage change in the book price = Initial Price - Discounted price/ Initial Price) x 100

($73.25 - $68.00) /$73.25 =5.25 /$73.25 =0.07167

=7.17%

Which of the following statements are true? Check all that apply. In this labor market, a minimum wage of $9.00 is binding. In t

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

<em>1. In this labor market, a minimum wage of $9.00 is binding : </em><em>FALSE</em>

<em>2. In the absence of price controls, a shortage puts upward pressure on wages until they rise to the equilibrium : </em><em>TRUE</em>

<em>3. If the minimum wage is set at $12.50, the market will not reach equilibrium : </em><em>TRUE</em>

<em>4. Binding minimum wages cause frictional unemployment : </em><em>FALSE</em>

Explanation:

<em><u>Question has been attached here</u></em>

Unemployment is the term used to define those who are willing and are actively seeking work but cannot find any. A minimum wage is a price control, in the form of a price floor imposed by government legislation in order to protect laborers from low wages. Paying anything below the minimum wage is against the law.

<em>1. In this labor market, a minimum wage of $9.00 is binding : </em><em>FALSE</em>

A minimum wage is binding only if it is set above the equilibrium price. In this scenario, the equilibrium price is at $12. Hence, $9 is not binding since a shortage of labor would gradually raise the price to the equilibrium.

<em>2. In the absence of price controls, a shortage puts upward pressure on wages until they rise to the equilibrium : </em><em>TRUE</em>

When there is a shortage in the market, it means that the quantity supplied is higher than the quantity demanded. With any particular commodity such as bread or rice, a shortage creates a rise in price. Just as that, a shortage of workers creates an upward pressure on the price (wage). Since there are no price ceilings, market will reach equilibrium.

<em>3. If the minimum wage is set at $12.50, the market will not reach equilibrium : </em><em>TRUE</em>

As shown in the diagram, the market equilibrium is $12. If the minimum wage was $12.50, there would be a surplus of labor (quantity supplied is higher than quantity demanded). Naturally, this may cause a downward pressure on wages until it reaches $12. However, when a minimum wage is imposed at $12.50, it cannot fall below that level. Thus, the market will not reach the equilibrium.

<em>4. Binding minimum wages cause frictional unemployment : </em><em>FALSE</em>

Frictional unemployment is a type of unemployment that occurs when workers are temporarily unemployed while switching between jobs. It is normal and occurs even in the healthiest of economies. A binding minimum wage is more likely to cause structural unemployment. This occurs when there is a mismatch between the skills of the labor force and the skills expected to be possessed by employers to do a particular job. Hence, even if jobs are available, the laborers are not suited to do them and thus are unemployed.
