a. The required return on the market is 10%.
b. The portfolio's required return is less than 11%.
c. If the risk-free rate remains unchanged but the market risk premium increases by 2%, Gretta's portfolio's required return will increase by more than 2%.
d. If the market risk premium remains unchanged but expected inflation increases by 2%, Gretta's portfolio's required return will increase by more than 2%.
e. If the stock market is efficient, Gretta's portfolio's expected return should equal.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: c. If the risk-free rate remains unchanged but the market risk premium increases by 2%, Gretta's portfolio's required return will increase by more than 2%.

Explanation:

To prove the above option, the Capital Asset Pricing Model can be used.

Required Return = Risk free rate + portfolio beta(market premium)

Portfolio Beta

This the weighted average of the individual betas.

Total portfolio value = 700,000 + 300,000 = $1,000,000

= ( 1.2 * 700,000/1,000,000) + ( 0.8 * 300,000/1,000,000)

= 0.84 + 0.24

= 1.08

Required return = 6% + 1.08 ( 5%)

= 6% + 5.4%

= 11.4%

Assuming risk-free rate remains unchanged but the market risk premium increases by 2%.

Required return = 6% + 1.08 ( 5% + 2%)

= 6% + 7.56%

= 13.56%

The change in required return

= (13.56% - 11.4%)/11.4%

= 18.9%

Proving that if the risk-free rate remains unchanged but the market risk premium increases by 2%, Gretta's portfolio's required return will increase by more than 2%.

At a decision point in a decision tree, which machine would you select when trying to maximize payoff when the anticipated benefit of selecting machine A is $45,000 with a probability of 90%; the expected benefit of selecting machine B is $80,000 with a probability of 50% and the expected benefit of selecting machine C is $60,000 with a probability of 75%

Answers

Answer:

Machine to select for maximum payoff:

Expected Outcomes:

A = $45,000 x 90% = $40,500

B = $80,000 x 50% = $40,000

C = $60,000 x 75 % = $45,000

C has the highest expected outcome of $45,000

Choose C.

Explanation:

Anticipated benefits:

A = $45,000 with pr = 90%

B = $80,000 with pr = 50%

C = $60,000 with pr = 75%

The expected benefit or outcome Machine A is obtained by multiplying the anticipated benefit with its probability of occurrence.  This gives a value that has been weighed.  The decision rule is to choose the machine with the highest outcome.

Answers

Answer:

$14.87

Explanation:

Computation the imputed interest income for the first year of the bond

First step

Using this formula

Imputed interest income= Par value/(1+yield to maturity)^Numbers of years

Let plug in the formula

Imputed interest income$1,000/(1.10)^20

Imputed interest income= $1,000/6.72749

Imputed interest income=$148.64

Second step

Imputed interest income=$1,000/(1.10)^19= Imputed interest income=$1,000/6.11590

Imputed interest income=$163.51

Hence,

Imputed interest income=$163.51 - $148.64

Imputed interest income= $14.87

Therefore the imputed interest income for the first year of the bond will be $14.87

Skolits Corp. has a cost of equity of 11.1 percent and an aftertax cost of debt of 4.65 percent. The company's balance sheet lists long-term debt of $375,000 and equity of $635,000. The company's bonds sell for 105.5 percent of par and market-to-book ratio is 3.01 times. If the company's tax rate is 35 percent, what is the WACC

Answers

Answer:

The WACC is 8.71%.

Explanation:

The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is simply the average rate a firm is expected to pay as cost financing its assets to those who hold its securities.

The WACC can be computed as follows:

Total debt and equity = Debt + Equity = $375,000 + $635,000 = $1,010,000

WE = Weight of equity = Equity / Total debt and equity = $635,000 / $1,010,000 = 0.63, or 63%

WD = Weight of equity = Debt / Total debt and equity = $375,000 / $1,010,000 = 0.37, or 37%

CE = Cost of equity = 11.1%

ACD = After tax cost of debt = 4.65%

Therefore, we have:

WACC = (WE * CE) + (WD * ACD) = (63% * 11.1%) + (37% * 4.65%) = 6.99% + 1.72% = 8.71%

Therefore, the WACC is 8.71%.

Often the life of a whistleblower involves tremendous ridicule and scrutiny from others, despite doing the "right thing." Describe your views as to why whistleblowers face tremendous obstacles as a result of bringing the inappropriate actions of otehrs to light.

Answers

Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

Whistleblowing is the act of raising an alarm over unethical or illegal acts committed by people holding political or public service positions. The whistleblower is most times motivated by the quest to end the injustice or negative impact suffered by the disadvantaged group. Whistleblowers suffer tremendous obstacles from the people they have exposed because;

1. The offender's source of illegal income has been withdrawn. Just like humans fight for survival when their source of livelihood is taken away, so would a person fight against whatever that tends to take away their illegal source of wealth.

2. Fear of being seen in a negative light by others. The person committing a crime usually puts up an act of innocence, thus presenting himself as a morally upright person. When the whistleblower tries to expose their true identity, it is only expected that they would try to shut him up.

Ink Inc. has a capital structure consisting of 25 percent debt and 75 percent common equity financing. The company has $800 million in net income and plans to pay out 40 percent of their earnings as dividends. What is the maximum amount of new financing that the company can raise without selling new common stock?

Answers

Answer:

$640 million

Explanation:

The computation of maximum amount of new financing is shown below:-

New financing from equity = $800 million × (1 - 40%)

= $480 million

New financing from debt = $480 million ÷ 75% × 25%

= $160 million

Now the maximum amount of new financing is

= $480 million + $160 million

= $640 million

Hence, the maximum amount of new financing is $640 million

A production department’s beginning inventory cost includes $478,000 of conversion costs. This department incurs an additional $1,047,500 in conversion costs in the month of March. Equivalent units of production for conversion total 770,000 for March.Required:Calculate the cost per equivalent unit of conversion using the weighted-average method.

Answers

Answer: $1.98

Explanation:

Equivalent Units of Production are used when the manufacturers have not completely finished their products for the year. This helps them express it in terms of fully manufactured units.

Using the weighted average method, the cost per equivalent unit is;

= [tex]\frac{Beginning inventory cost + Cost of current production}{Equivalent units of production}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{478,000 + 1,047,500}{770,000}[/tex]

= $1.98

Answers

Answer:

Delta is responsible for insuring $200,000 / $1,600,000 = 1/8 of the building

Eversafe is responsible for 1 - 1/8 = 7/8

Delta will pay 1/8 x $640,000 = $80,000

Eversafe will pay $640,000 - $80,000 = $560,000

in order for Eversafe to pay:

Consider a firm Theta that spends $60 to produce goods in year 1. In year 2 it sells these goods for $100, but its customers pay their bills with a delay, therefore the payment is not received until year 3. What's the amount of net income recorded on the income statement for each year?

Answers

Answer:

Theta

Amount of net income for each year:

Year 1 = $0

Year 2 = $40 ($100 - $60)

Year 3 = $0

Explanation:

The net income to be recorded in Theta's income statement depends on the period in which revenue is recorded.  In year 1, Theta would accumulated Ending Inventory of $60 being the cost of its finished goods inventory.  Since it has not made any sales, there is no net income to record, which is always the difference between revenue and cost of goods or services sold.  In year 2, the actual sales revenue was made and recorded in the accounts.  This is the period for Theta to calculate its profit against the cost of goods sold.  In year 3 when cash payment was received from customers, the accounts of Theta would record the receipt only in settlement of the customer debt.  This transaction does not affect the revenue or the cost of goods sold, two important elements for determining the profit made.

Therefore for computing the return on investment we simply applied the above formula.

The standard quantity allowed for the units produced was 4000 pounds, the standard price was $2.50 per pound, and the materials quantity variance was $350 favorable. Each unit uses 1 pound of materials. How many units were actually produced

Answers

Answer:

Unites actually produced = 4,000 units

Explanation:

Material quantity variance occurs when the actual quantity used to achieved a given level of output is more or less than the standard quantity.  

It is determined by the difference between the actual and standard quantity of material for the actual level of output multiplied by the the standard price  

Material quantity variance in unit =  Materials quantity variance  in value /standard price

Material quantity variance in unit = 350/2.50 =140  pounds

Actual quantity used (in pounds)  = standard quantity allowed - Material quantity variance

                              = 4000  - 140 = 3,860 pounds

Actual units produced = Standard quantity allowed/ standard quantity  per unit

                                      = 4,000/1 = 4000 units

Unites actually produced = 4,000 units
