Answer: 7.46%

Explanation:

The CAPITAL ASSET PRICING MODEL is a very useful tool for calculating a firm's Cost of Equity.

The Formula is,

Rc = Rrf + b(Rpm)

Where,

Rc is the Cost of Equity

Rpf is the Risk risk free rate

b is beta

Rpm is the risk premium

Plugging in the digits we have,

Rc = 0.0350 + 0.88(0.045)

= 0.0746

The firm's cost of equity from retained earnings based on the CAPM is therefore 7.46%

In the regression, two predictors are used. These two predictors are size and fireplace (FP).

Parsley, a world-famous chef, signs a contract to give lessons in French cooking to Curry. Parsley wants to transfer his duties
Margarita [4]

Answer:

C. <u>not valid because performance depends on Parsley's personal skills</u>

Explanation:

A valid contract refers to an agreement entered into by parties which legally binds both parties and is enforceable under the law.

For a contract to be termed as valid, it must be performed by the parties to it.

Performance clause in a valid contract refers to doing or acting in a way as is required by the terms of the contract.

In the given case, Parsley signed a contract to provide services i.e provide French cooking lessons to Curry. Later, Parsley wants to transfer his duties to Relish.

The transfer will not be valid since the performance i.e service to be provided by Parsley are of personal nature and the consideration is based upon that. No two individuals can provide exact services.

Which goal is an example of a measurable goal?
Anni [7]

Sales Target

Explanation:

A sales target is an example of a measurable goal and it is probably the most common, and perhaps the most important, measurable goal in a firm.

It simply consists in determining a minimum number of goods or services to be sold, measured in either physical or monetary terms, in order to keep the firm afloat and profitable.

For example, a firm that sells cars can determine that for the month of january it must sell at least 250 cars in order to stay in business. If the goal is not reached, the sustainability of the firm can be endangered.

As the manager of High Speed Records, you have signed a new artist to the label. There are three different outcomes for investin
STatiana [176]

Answer:

0.2 or 20%

Explanation:

The three possible outcomes, with respective probabilities and returns, as follows

Outcome 1: Probability (P) = 0.35, Return (R) = 0.20

Outcome 2: Probability = 0.25, Return = 0.36

Outcome 3: Probability = 0.40, Return = 0.10.

The expected return will be computed as follows.

Expected Return = (P_{1} *R_{1})  + (P_{2} *R_{2}) + (P_{3} *R_{3})

= (0.35*0.20) + (0.25*0.36) + (0.40*0.10)

= 0.07 + 0.09 + 0.04

= 0.2

Therefore expected return = 0.2 or 20%
