Which investment has the least amount of risk?

Business
1 answer:
exis [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A. standard deviation = $500, expected return = $5,000

Explanation:

For analysis which investment involved the least amount of risk we need to determine the coefficient of variation i.e. shown below:

As we know that

Coefficient of variance = standard deviation ÷ expected return

A = $500 ÷ $5,000 = 0.10

B = $700 ÷ $500 = 1.40

C = $900 ÷ $800 = 1.125

D = $400 ÷ 350 = 1.143

As it can be seen that investment A has the leas amount of risk hence, the same is to be considered

Natali [406]

Explanation:

i=interest rate

X=current rate

2X = double current rate

n = number of years

Calculate time it takes to double at 3%:

2X = X(1+i)^n

simplify by cancelling out X

(1+i)^n = 2

substitute i = 3%

(1.03)^n =2

take log

n*log(1.03)  = log(2)

n = log(2)/log(1.03) = 0.6931/0.02956 = 23.45 years

Similarly, for growth rate of 7%,

n = log(2)/log(1.07) = 0.6931 / 0.06766 = 10.24 years

So the difference is 23.45-10.24 = 13.21 years (to the hundredth)  sooner

Assume that the Assembly Department allocates overhead based on machine hours, and the Finishing Department allocates overhead b
kap26 [50]

Answer:

$9.2 0

Explanation:

The calculation of the Finishing Department is shown below:-

Plant - wide overhead rate = Total overhead ÷ Total machine hour

= ($470,000 + $737,900) ÷ ($470,000 + 133,950)

Plant wide overhead rate = $2 per machine hour

Machine hour for product = 4.2 + 0.4

= $4.6 machine hour

Applied overhead = Machine hour for product × Plant wide overhead rate

= $4.6 × $2

= $9.2 0

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Inventory Turnover Ratio for 2008=  3.223 Times

Inventory Turnover Ratio for 2009= 3.91 times

Explanation:

Inventory Turnover Ratio=  Cost of Goods Sold / Average Inventories

Inventory Turnover Ratio for 2008=  $632,000/ $201,000 + 191,100/2

Inventory Turnover Ratio for 2008=  $632,000/196,050

Inventory Turnover Ratio for 2008=  3.223  times

Inventory Turnover Ratio for 2009=  $ 731,000/191,100 + 182,600/2

Inventory Turnover Ratio for 2009=  $ 731,000/ 186,850

Inventory Turnover Ratio for 2009= 3.91 times
