You decide to invest in a portfolio consisting of 23 percent Stock X, 44 percent Stock Y, and the remainder in Stock Z. Based on the following information, what is the standard deviation of your portfolio?

State of Economy Probability of State of Economy Return if State Occurs

Stock X Stock Y Stock Z
Normal 0.82 11.30% 4.70% 13.70%
Boom 0.18 18.60% 26.60% 18.10%


a. 1.80%
b. 4.90%
c. 6.13%
d. 2.41%
e. 7.15%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b. 4.90%

Explanation:

the portfolio's return in a normal economy:

= (0.23 x 11.3%) + (0.44 x 4.7%) + (0.33 x 13.7%) = 9.119%

the portfolio's return in a booming economy:

= (0.23 x 18.6%) + (0.44 x 26.6%) + (0.33 x 18.1%) = 21.955%

weighted average return:

(0.82 x 9.119%) + (0.18 x 21.955%) = 11.42948%

standard deviation:

= {[0.82 x (9.119% - 11.42948%)²] + [0.18 x (21.955% - 11.42948%)²]}⁰°⁵

= (0.000437742 + 0.001994158)⁰°⁵ = 0.0024319⁰°⁵ = 0.049 = 4.9%

The standard deviation of a stock or a portfolio measures the risk of the stock or the portfolio. The lower the standard deviation, the less risky the stock or portfolio.

On July 1, Shady Creek Resort borrowed $250,000 cash by signing a 10-year, 8% installment note requiring equal payments each June 30 of $37,258. What amount of principal will be included in the first annual payment

Answers

Answer:

Principal payable in year 1 = $17,258

Explanation:

Loan Amortization: A loan repayment method structured such that a series of equal periodic installments will be paid for certain number of periods to offset both the loan principal amount and the accrued interest.

The annual installment is computed as follows:  

Annual installment= Loan amount/annuity factor .

The annual installment is already given as 37,258.

Principal payable = Annual installment - interest amount

Interest amount = Interest rate × loan amount

                         = 8%× 250,000 =20,000

Principal payable in year 1 =37,258 - 20,000  =$17,258

Principal payable in year 1 = $17,258

identify the cultural differences that are likely to arise between costco us employees and local employees are working in australia spain and china

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question seems to be incomplete because it does not provide any references, we can say that the cultural differences that are likely to arise between Costco US employees and local employees that are working in Australia Spain, and China are the result of totally different cultures, idiosyncrasies, customs, and traditions.

American customers are so different from Australian, Chinese, or Spanish consumers. What works in one country would not work in another. What is success in the US could be a failure in Spain. We are talking about different preferences, tastes, likes, and traditions.

That is why it is so important that Costco branches in other countries survey and understand local people's minds and tastes, so employees in each country can be trained in customer services, local preferences, assertiveness, human and business orientation, and many others.

Your company, Beta Corporation, is considering a new project which you must analyze. Based on the following data, what is the project's Year 1 operating cash flow?
Sales $22,000
Depreciation $8,000
Other operating costs $12,000
Tax rate 35%

Answers

Answer:

Net operating cash flow= $9,300

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales $22,000

Depreciation $8,000

Other operating costs $12,000

Tax rate 35%

We need to determine the net operating cash flow:

Sales= 22,000

Other operating costs= (12,000)

Depreciation= (8,000)

EBIT= 2,000

Tax= (2,000*0.35)=  (700)

Depreciation= 8,000

Net operating cash flow= 9,300

Bob owns a rental property that he bought several years ago for $260,000. He has taken depreciation on the house of $37,000 since buying it. He sells it in 2019 for $290,000. His selling expenses were $12,000 for the year. What was Bob’s realized gain on the sale?

Answers

Answer:

Bob’s realized gain on the sale is $55,000,

Explanation:

The first step is to find the Book Value of the Rental Property Sold.

Book Value of the Rental Property Sold.

Cost                                               $260,000

Less Accumulated Depreciation  ($37,000)

Book Value                                   $223,000

Gain or Loss on Sale = Selling Price - Cost of Sale (Book Value) - Other Selling Expenses

                                   = $290,000 - $223,000 - $12,000

                                   = $55,000

Conclusion :

Bob’s realized gain on the sale is $55,000,

Answers

Answer:

Present value for solution 2 = $93,298.28

Solution 1 has a lower cost compared to solution 2. Solution 1 would be more desirable based on the lower cost

Explanation:

Present value is the sum of discounted cashflows

Solution 1

Cash flow in year 0 = 25,000

Cash flow in year 1 and 2 = 4,000

I = 15%

Present value = $31,502.84

Solution 2

Cash flow in year 0 = 88,000

Cash flow in year 1 and 6 = 1,400

I = 15%

Present value = $93,298.28

Solution 1 has a lower cost compared to solution 2. Solution 1 would be more desirable based on the lower cost

Prior to May 1, Fortune Company has never had any treasury stock transactions. A company repurchased 160 shares of its common stock on May 1 for $8,000. On July 1, it reissued 80 of these shares at $52 per share. On August 1, it reissued the remaining treasury shares at $49 per share. What is the balance in the Paid-in Capital, Treasury Stock account on August 2

Answers

Answer: $80

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that prior to May 1, Fortune Company has never had any treasury stock transactions and that a company repurchased 160 shares of its common stock on May 1 for $8,000. The price per share will be:

= $8,000/160

= $50 per share

The balance in paid capital as at May 1 will be 0.

On July 1, it reissued 80 of these shares at $52 per share. This means that there is an increase of ($52 - $50) = $2 per share.

The balance paid on capital as at July 1 will be:

= $2 × 80

= $160

On August 1, it reissued the remaining treasury shares at $49 per share. This mean that there is a reduction of $1 per share.

The balance paid on capital as at August 1 will be:

= -1 × $80

= -$80

The balance in the Paid-in Capital, Treasury Stock account on August 2 will now be:

= $160 - $80

= $80

Westchester Corp. is considering two equally risky, mutually exclusive projects, both of which have normal cash flows. Project A has an IRR of 11%, while Project B's IRR is 14%. When the WACC is 8%, the projects have the same NPV. Given this information, which of the following statements is CORRECT?a. If the WACC is 9%, Project A's NPV will be higher than Project B's. b. If the WACC is greater than 14%, Project A's IRR will exceed Project B's. c. If the WACC is 13%, Project A's NPV will be higher than Project B's. d. If the WACC is 9%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's. e. If the WACC is 6%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's.

Answers

Answer:

d. If the WACC is 9%, Project B's NPV will be higher than Project A's.

Explanation:

The internal rate of return is the return in which the NPV is zero i.e cash inflows equal to the initial investment

While the WACC refers to the cost of capital by considering the capital structure i.e cost of equity, cost of preferred stock and cost of debt by taking their weightage

Now if the WACC is 9% so project B NPV would be higher as compared to project A as we can see that project B IRR is greater than the project A IRR

Therefore option d is correct

Iron Works International is considering a project that will produce annual cash flows of $38,200, $46,900, $57,600, and $23,100 over the next four years, respectively. What is the internal rate of return if the project has an initial cost of $112,800

(Be sure to indicate your calculations for mean and standard deviation)

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true mean would be between 3.39 and 6.01

Explanation:

In order to calculate the 95% confidence interval for the true mean we would have to calculate first the mean and standard deviation as follows:

mean=∑Xi/n

mean=$3.60 $4.50 $2.80 $6.30 $2.60 $5.20 $6.75 $4.25 $8.00 $3.00/10

mean=4.7

standard deviation=√∑(Xi-mean)∧2/n-1

standard deviation=1.83

t critical=2.262

The confidence interval=mean +/- t critical*standard deviation/√10

The confidence interval=4.7 +/- 2.262*1.8338/√10

The confidence interval=(3.39, 6.01)

The 95% confidence interval for the true mean would be between 3.39 and 6.01

g explain why a consumer will never choose to consume a combination of goods where their indifference curve is upward sloping.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: Because that action will violate the basic principles of the preferences of the consumers.

Explanation:

To begin with, the microeconomic theory, the consumers have preferences and to that preferences there are simple conditions and principles that have to be respected. Those conditions establish that a consumer have preferences that are "complete", "transitive" and that they prefer much more of a good product that less of that product. If a consumer will choose to consume a combination of goods where their indifference curve is upward sloping then the rules will be violate and that will not respect the logic of the economy's theory because it is stated that the indifference curves are convex.  

Yeats Corporation's sales in Year 1 were $396,000 and in Year 2 were $380,000. Using Year 1 as the base year, the percent change for Year 2 compared to the base year is

Answers

Answer:

Yeats Corporation

The percent change for Year 2 compared to the base year is -4.04%

Explanation:

a) Calculations:

Year 1 Sales = $396,000

Year 2 Sales = $380,000

Reduction = $16,000

Percentage reduction = $16,000/$396,000 x 100 = 4.04%

This is a reduction, and it is negative.

b) The change in sales is calculated as the difference between year 1 and year 2 sales over the sales in year 1 multiplied by 100.  This is expressed as a percentage by the multiplication by 100.  The percent change describes the relationship between the sales figure in year 1 and the sales figure in 2.  When calculated as above, it shows that sales reduced in year 2 by 4.04% from the sales in year 1.

Return on equity can be calculated by dividing net income in total shareholder's equity

NOTE: ALL THE WORKINGS ARE IN 1000's

Return on equity = Net Income / Shareholder's Equity

Return on equity = 1,100,000 / (500,000 + 200,000 +5,600,000)

Return on equity = $1,100,000/6,300,000

Return on equity = 17.46%

Choose one:

a. Not recommend
b. Recommend

Suggestion 3: Offer monthly and yearly passes that reduce the price per ride
Choose one:

a. Not recommend
b. Recommend

Answers

Answer:

Suggestion 1: Not Recommended

Suggestion 2: Recommended

Suggestion 3: Not Recommended

Explanation:

The law of demand says that the increase in the price of the commodity will result in decrease in the utility derived from that product and as a result the consumption of the product falls.

So by keeping the law of demand in view, we can say that the:

Reduction in price of public transportation is not recommended because every transporter will start investing in public transport and we will have higher number of buses per person.The increase in the price of parking and gasoline is recommended as the increase in parking fees and gasoline cost will discourage people to buy private transportation.Offer of monthly and yearly passes to reduce the price per ride is not recommended as it encourages the cyclists to travel via bus. Hence it is not recommended.

Radovilsky Manufacturing​ Company, in​ Hayward, California, makes flashing lights for toys. The company operates its production facility 300 days per year. It has orders for about 11,800 flashing lights per year and has the capability of producing 95 per day. Setting up the light production costs ​$48. The cost of each light is ​$0.95. The holding cost is ​$0.10 per light per year.
A) What is the optimal sizeof the production run?
B) What is the average holding cost per year?
C) What is the average setup cot per year?
D) What is the total cost per year, including the cost of the lights?

Answers

Answer:

Please see answers below.

Explanation:

Annual demand rep D=11,800

Setting up cost rep S = $48

Holding cost per year rep H=$0.1

Production rate per year = Production facility × Capability of production

=300 × 95

=28,500

Therefore;

a. Optimal size of the production

Q = √2DS/H(1-D/P)

= √2×11,800×48/0.1(1-11,800/28,500)

=√11328000-0.5859649123

=√11328000.586

=$3,366

b. Average holding cost per year

=QH/2(1-D/P)

=3,366×0.1/2(1-3,366/28,500)

=168.3(0.8818947368)

=$148.42

C. Average set up cost

=D/Q × S

=11,800/3,366 × 48

=$168.27

D. Total cost per year = Average set up cost + Average holding cost per year + Cost to purchase 11,800 lights

= $148.42 + $168.27 + 11,800(0.95)

= $11,526.69

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) $670

Explanation:

The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the total market value of goods and services produced within an economy for a given period.  It is calculated with this formula: GDP=C+I+G+(X−M) where, C = Consumption of goods and services, I = Investments, G = Government Spending, X = Exports and M = Imports.  It is in turn influenced by transactions that take place on a daily basis.  Some of the transactions do not really affect a country's GDP.  For example, the order of bottles of wine by Dmitri (supposedly a Greek citizen) from a French distributor into (Greece).

Each of the following factors affects the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) equation. Which are factors that a firm cannot control? Check all that apply. The firm’s capital budgeting decision rules Tax rates The general level of stock prices The firm’s capital structure

Answers

Answer:

-Tax rates

-The general level of stock prices

Explanation:

The factors that a firm cannot control are the ones that it has no power to decide and they are determined by a third party. According to that, from the options given, the factors that the firm cannot control are tax rates because they are established by the government and the general level of stock prices because it is determined by the supply and demand in the market.

The other options are not right because the company  can establish its process to evaluate investments and expenses and how to finance its assets with debt and equity.

On May 1, Southern Oil Corporation purchased 2,000 shares of its $10 par value common stock at a cash price of $13/share. On July 15, 900 shares of the treasury stock were sold for cash at $17/share. Journalize the two transactions. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent manually. Record journal entries in the order presented in the problem.)

Answers

Answer:

1.

May 1,

DR Treasury Stock $ 26,000

CR Cash $26,000

(To record purchase of Treasury Stock)

Working - 2,000 * $13 per share

= $26,000

2.

July 15,

DR Cash $ $15,300

CR Treasury Stock $11,700

CR Additional Paid-in Capital $3,600

(To record sale of Treasury Stock)

Working and Notes

Cash = 900 * $17 per share = $15,300

Treasury Stock = 900 * purchase price of $13 per share = $11,700

When a stock is sold for more than it was bought or issued for, record this in the Additional Paid-in Capital account.

= Cash - Treasury

= 15,300 - 11,700

= $3,600

(2012) investigated this question with the semicircular canals (SC) of the three-toed sloth (Bradypus variegatus).
