g Stock A has a beta of 1.5. Stock B has a beta of 1.2 and an expected return of 12 percent. If the risk-free rate is 2 percent and both stocks have equal reward-to-risk ratios, what is the expected return on stock A
Answer:
14.5%
Explanation:
The computation of the expected return on stock A is shown below:
Given that
The expected return of stock b = 12%
beta = 1.2
Now
risk free rate = 2% market risk premium
So as per CAPM, the expected return = risk free rate + beta × market risk premium
0.12 = 0.02 + 1.2 × market risk premium
1.2 × market risk premium = 0.10
So,
market risk premium is
= 0.10 ÷ 1.2
= 0.0833 or 8.33%
Since they have equal risk reward so the market risk premium would be same for stock A
Now
The expected return of stock A is
= 2% + (1.5 × 8.33)
= 14.5%

Explanation:
Suppose, that after a successful career, a worker retired precisely as planned with precisely the amount saved that they intended. Upon retirement, they reduced their consumption and spent much less, living a much more simple life. Is this behavior consistent with the permanent income hypothesis?
Answer: Yes it is
Explanation:
The Permanent Income Hypothesis posits that human expenditure in the short term is based on the amount of income they expect to get as income over the long term.
If a person for instance, knows that they will receive a pay cut at the end of the year, they will probably spend less today to survive the pay cut.
Same goes for the worker in this scenario. They know that the amount they saved is all they have now and into the future so they are adjusting their expenses to ensure they survive on that saving.

Noreen rechecks 2017-04-04
a) $66.61
b) $62.63
c) $54.20
d) $50.80
Answer:
d) $50.80
Explanation:
The computation of the target cost per crepe maker is as follows:
But before that
Return per unit is
= ($228,000 × 20%) ÷ 38,000 units
= $1.20
Now
The target cost per crepe maker is
= $52 - $1.20
= $50.80
hence, the target cost per crepe maker is $50.80
Therefore the correct option is d.
And all the other options are incorrect

the median of four numbers is 63.the three of the numbers are 60,62 and 92 what is the missing number
Answer: 64
Explanation:
To find the median of a number, we have to arrange the numbers that are given in either ascending or descending order.
In this case there are 4 numbers, let the fourth number be x, therefore the numbers will be:
60, 62, x and 92.
Since they are four numbers, the median will be the addition of the 2nd and 3rd number and then divided by 2. This will be:
(62 + x) / 2 = 63
62 + x = 126
x = 126 - 62
x = 64
The missing number is 64

Potomac LLC purchased an automobile for $31,200 on August 5, 2020. What is Potomac's depreciation deduction for 2020
Answer:
Potomac LLC
Depreciation deduction for 2020 is:
$2,600.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
August 5, 2020, Purchase of an automobile for $31,200
Depreciation rate = 20% for year 1
Depreciation expense = $31,200 * 20% * 5/12 months
= $2,600
b) Automobiles attract 20% depreciation in the first year. However, since Potomac LLC purchased the automobile on August 5, 2020, the depreciation expense of $6,240 ($31,200 * 20%) will be prorated for five months, giving an average of $520 per month. This results to $2,600 ($520 * 5).
A quantity of inventory that provides protection against lost sales caused by unfulfilled demands from customers is called:__________
a) Just-in-time inventory.
b) Budgeted stock.
c) Continuous inventory.
d) Capital stock.
e) Safety stock.
Answer:
e) Safety stock.
Explanation:
The term that describes this form of safety-net for companies is called safety stock. Companies tend to have this in order to be able to maintain their business flow as efficiently as possible in case there are unforeseen increases in demand. Otherwise, if demand drastically increases and they do not have this safety stock the company will run out of stock immediately and lose out on sales as they wait for more stock to arrive, which can also cause that stock to sell out immediately due to the backed-up demand, which can lead to the business buying backed up for months.
If you borrow $700 for 6 months at 8% annual simple interest, how much must you repay at the end of the 6 months
Answer:
[tex]\$728[/tex]
Explanation:
Let P denotes principal amount, R denotes rate of interest and T denotes time period.
Principal amount [tex](P)=\$700[/tex]
Rate of interest [tex](R)=8\%[/tex]
Time [tex](T)=6[/tex] months [tex]=\frac{6}{12}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex] years
Simple interest [tex]=\frac{PRT}{100}=\frac{700(8)(\frac{1}{2}) }{100} =\$28[/tex]
Amount paid at the end of 6 months = P + Simple interest [tex]=700+28=\$728[/tex]

Assume that a bank receives a deposit of $1,000 in cash, puts aside $200 as required reserves, and makes a loan of $800, this set of transactions will:______
Answer: e. increases the money supply by $800
Explanation:
The scenario described in the question is how money is created in an economy. Banks take deposits and loan them out to entities who would then deposit this loan in another bank (for instance) which would then give it out as loans as well.
The process will theoretically continue till it reaches zero. When the bank in the question made a loan of $800 out of the $1,000 therefore, it was increasing the money supply by $800.
As a corporation, you want to distribute money to shareholders as a dividend. If the dividend is taxed at a rate of 20% and the dividend is $1 per share, how much money will a shareholder of 10,000 shares get after-tax? a) $8,000 b) $8,250 c) $8,400 d) $9,000
Answer:
a) $8,000
Explanation:
The tax rate is 20% of the dividend. If the dividend is $1 per share, the actual tax per share is 20 percent of $1.
=20/100 x $1
=0.2 x$1
=20cents per share
A shareholder will receive $1- 20 cents as dividends per share
=80 cents or $0.80 per share.
A shareholder with 10,000 shares will get
=10,000 x $.80
=$8,000

If the Federal Reserve held the money supply constant in response, the effect on aggregate demand from the increase in government spending would be:___.
Answer: Smaller
Explanation:
If the Federal Reserve held the money supply constant in response, the effect on aggregate demand from the increase in government spending would be smaller than if the Fed were committed to maintaining a fixed interest rate.
A rise in Aggregate Demand would lead to more people demanding money to enable them to spend. If the Fed keeps the money supply constant therefore, the increase aggregate demand will be less than if the Fed was committed to maintaining a fixed interest rate.
This is because if the Fed wanted to maintain a fixed rate they would have increased money supply to match money demand which would have led to Aggregate demand increasing more than if they hold the money supply constant.
The cost of capital of a company that uses 45 percent debt that has an after-tax cost of debt of 10 percent and 55 percent equity that has a cost of 15 percent is:_______.
Answer:
12.75 %
Explanation:
Cost of Capital is calculated on a Weighted Average basis. This is because there is a Pooling of Funds when it comes to financing projects. So Cost of Capital is the Return that is Required by providers of Long Term source of finance.
Cost of Capital = E/V × Ke + D/V × Kd
Where,
E/V = Market Weight of Equity
= 0.55
Ke = Cost of Equity
= 15%
D/E = Market Weight of Debt
= 0.45
Kd = Cost of Debt
= 10%
Therefore,
Cost of Capital = 0.55 × 15% + 0.45 × 10%
= 12.75 %

Because price and quantity supplied are directly related, we would expect the sign of the price elasticity of supply to be:_________
Answer:
Positive
Explanation:
Price elasticity is the measure to assess the responsiveness of the supply of a good or service after changing the price of the good or service.
According to basic principles of economics, the price and supply of good or services are directly proportional, it means that if the price increases the supply of good increases and vice versa. The sign of the price elasticity will be positive because they are directly related.
Form example
At Price $5 supply is 200 units
At price $6 supply 250 units
Calculate the change in price and change in supply as well.
Cange in price = ($6 - $5) / 5 = 0.2 = 20%
Cange in supply = 250 units - 200 units = 50 units / 200 unit = 0.25 = 25%
Price elasticity of supply = Change in supply / Change in price
Price elasticity of supply = 25% / 20%
Price elasticity of supply = 1.25
Hence, the sign is positive

Using this formula
Portfolio value= Stock value + Cash
Let plug in the formula
Portfolio value = [(310 shares× ($101 -3.20))+ (310 shares × $3.20) ]
Portfolio value = [(310*97.80)+922)]

Your salary is 120,000 per year. Your paycheck is cut monthly. You will receive this amount for the next 30 years. Assume that APR is 12%, what is the present value of your life time income
Answer:
$972,183.30
Explanation:
your monthly salary is $120,000 / 12 = $10,000
you will work for 30 years or 360 months
APR = 12%, so monthly discount rate = 12% / 12 = 1%
Present value = $10,000 x annuity factor
PV annuity factor, 1%, 360 periods = 97.21833
present value = $10,000 x 97.21833 = $972,183.30
