7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

the beta of treasury bills is 0

the beta of stock A = 1.46

the beta of stock B = ?

the portfolio contains equal amounts of each investment and its overall beta is 0.93

0.93 = (0 x 1/3) + (1.46 x 1/3) + (B x 1/3)

0.93 = 0 + 0.4867 + 0.333B

0.93 = 0.4867 + 0.333B

0.4433 = 0.333B

B = 0.4433 / 0.333 = 1.33

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The answer is c. $3,883.27

Explanation:

For the problem, we will be using the formula for calculating the Future Value of money, which is:

F= P(1+r)^{n}

Where:

F - future value

P - Principal amount = ($100)

r - rate of growth in percent = (5% or 0.05)

n - number of years = (75)

We calculate thus:

F = 100(1 + 0.05)^{75}

F = 100(1.05)^{75}

F = 100  X  38.8327

F = 3,883.27

therefore the amount after 75 years will be $3,883.27
