The answers are:
- Dr accounts payable 1,000
- Cr cash 980
- Cr merchandise inventory 20

Since cash is an asset, when an asset decreases, it should be credited. LOL Music Store paid its debt in cash, therefore decreasing its cash account.
Since the purchase discount reduces the value of the inventory and inventory is an asset, when an asset decreases, it should be credited.

Answer:
Preston has to make four phone calls to clients today. The call to Mr. Miller will take about an hour to complete, the call to Ms. Winnecuit will take about five minutes to complete, the call to Mr. Drudge will take about thirty minutes and the call to Mrs. Freich will take about fifteen minutes to complete. If all the calls are equally important, who should Preston call first?
From the analogy above, in order to maximize the time frame. The call to lesser clients should be prioritized before others, this means that Preston should place a call to Ms Winnecuit which will last for five minutes follow by Mrs Freich which will last for fifteen minutes follow by Mr Drudge which will last for thirty minutes and lastly to Mr Miller which will last for about an hour.
Prioritization comes in play to time frame of each call, the lesser minutes calls will not take too much time to be completed while the call with highest time frame comes last as a result of the time involved.
Explanation:
Answer:
a. The return predicted by CAPM for a portfolio with a beta of 1.4 is 11.88%
b. The alpha of portfolio A is -3.68%
Explanation:
The formula for computing the return by Capital Assets Pricing Method (CAPM) model.
Expected return = Risk Free rate + (Beta × Market Risk Premium)
where,
Market risk premium = market return - risk free rate
Now, putting the values in the above equation
a. Expected return = 0.06 + 1.4 × (0.102 - 0.06)
= 0.06 + 1.4 × 0.042
= 0.06 + 0.0588
= 0.1188
= 11.88 %
Thus, the return predicted by CAPM for a portfolio with a beta of 1.4 is 11.88%.
b. The alpha should be = Portfolio expected return - expected return
= 8.20 - 11.88 %
= -3.68%
Thus, the alpha of portfolio A is -3.68%
