You own a stock portfolio invested 20 percent in Stock Q, 30 percent in Stock R, 35 percent in Stock S, and 15 percent in Stock T. The betas for these four stocks are .79, 1.23, 1.13, and 1.36, respectively. What is the portfolio beta?
Answer:
The portfolio beta is 1.13
Explanation:
Portfolio bet is the average beta calculated on the basis of weightage of each investment. The beta of every investment is multiplied with the weightage of each investment in a portfolio. The all the value is added to get the portfolio beta
Portfolio Beta = ( Stock Q beta x Stock Q Weightage) + ( Stock R beta x Stock R Weightage) + ( Stock S beta x Stock S Weightage) + ( Stock T beta x Stock T Weightage)
Portfolio Beta = ( 0.79 x 20% ) + ( 1.23 x 30% ) + ( 1.13 x 35% ) + ( 1.36 x 15% )
Portfolio Beta = 0.158 + 0.369 + 0.396 + 0.204 = 1.127
Portfolio beta is 1.13
the rapidly evolving world of HR will increasingly require HR professionals to ________. focus exclusively on learning new trends in the HR profession thoroughly understand all aspects of what the companies they work for do integrate their operations with the finance department operations focus their attention on compliance with government regulation
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": thoroughly understand all aspects of what the companies they work for do.
Explanation:
Human Resources (HR) representatives usually have an overall scope of what departments constitute a company and what are the duties of each employee in each of those units. However, they are not involved in the activities of each employee or have a direct influence on the performance of workers meaning they do not follow a personalized approach to keeping employees' improvement.
That situation requires change. Nowadays, companies place more attention to the specialization of employees to take advantage of their skills as much as possible. Therefore, HR representatives will have to be more involved in every aspect of what the firms do to have more detailed information about the operations of the business and identify improvement areas if any.
A problem that arises in markets where one party knows more about attributes of the good being sold than the other. Sellers of used goods, for example, know about their goods' defects, while buyers do not.eg. Tim would like to buy a used plasma television, but he is not an electronics expert and, thus, cannot assess the quality of a TV directly before owning it. Tim believes that owners of the worst TVs are more willing to sell their TVs than owners of the best TVs. Because of this, Tim believes that used TVs for sale are probably of low quality.Adverse SelectionDiverse SelectionNone of above
Answer: Adverse Selection.
Explanation:
The above situation described Adverse Selection because Adverse Selection refers to a situation where there is information asymmetry between buyers and sellers of a good or service. This means that a party involved has more information about the transaction than the other and this can lead to the person who has more information engaging in a transaction that is sure to benefit them at the expense of the person they are transacting with. A serious example is one of life insurance. Perhaps if a person knows that they will be dying soon but it won't show up on all medical scans and tests, they will get the life insurance and claim on it when they die. They had more information than the seller.
In the above scenario, Tim can make all the assumptions he wants to make but the fact is he simply will.not know what defects the television has because he is not the seller.
It is applaudible that he is approaching with caution though. He at least has a higher chance of success.
Answer:
Adverse selection
Explanation:
Adverse selection is a situation where buyers and sellers have access to different information, so they make decisions to buy and sell in transactions that benefits them the most. Other participants suffer as a result.
Tim has less information than the seller of second hand televisions, therefore he may not be able to make an informed decision that will benefit him.
The seller on the other hand knows all the defects on his second hand televisions. So he can sell at a price that will benefit him.
Top-Ten Inc. is considering replacing its existing machine that is used to produce musical CDs. This existing machine was purchase 3 years ago at a base price of $60,000. Installation costs at the time for the machine were $1,000. The existing machine is considered a 3-year class for MACRS. The existing machine can be sold today for $40,000 and for $10,000 in 3 years. The new machine has a purchase price of $80,000 and is also considered a 3-year class for MACRS. Installation costs for the new machine are $7,000. The estimated salvage value of the new machine is $20,000. This new machine is more efficient than the existing one and thus savings before taxes using the new machine are $8,000 a year. The company's marginal tax rate is 30% and the cost of capital is 12%. For this project, what is the incremental cash flow in year 1?
Answer: $12,943.10
Explanation:
To answer let us begin with knowing the MACRS percentages.
Both machines are considered a 3 year class for MACRS.
3 Year MACRS percentages are as follows,
Year 1= 33.33%
Year 2=44.45%
Year 3=14.81%
Year 4=7.41%
To calculate the Incremental cash flow we would need to subtract the tax on the Pre-tax savings as well as the depreciation tax shield.
DEPRECIATION TAX SHIELD.
Depreciation on New Machine is,
= First year MACRS * purchase price.
= 33.33% * 87,000 ( include installation price)
= $28,997.10
Subtract depreciation on original machine which is now in FOURTH year so we use the 4 year depreciation rate,
= 61,000 * 7.41%
= $4,520.10
Subtracting them would give,
= 28,997.10 - 4,520.10
= $24,477
This is the Additional depreciation.
We need to calculate the tax shield on it.
= 24,477 * 30%
= $7,341.10 is the tax shield.
Now to calculate the Incremental Cash flow.
= Pre-tax Savings - (tax on Pre-tax Savings) + Depreciation tax shield
= 8,000 - (8,000 * 30%) + 7,341.10
= $12,943.10
$12,943.10 is the Incremental Cash flow in year 1.
When you purchased your house, you took out a 30-year annual-payment mortgage with an interest rate of 6 percent per year (compounded annually). The annual payment on the mortgage is $12,000, paid at the end of each year. You have just made a payment and have now decided to pay the mortgage off by repaying the outstanding balance. What is the payoff amount if you have lived in the house for 12 years (so there are 18 years left on the mortgage)
Answer: $129,931.24
Explanation:
Annuity is a stream of equal cash flows that has a specified number of periods. To get the payoff amount for living in the house for 12 years, we calculate the present value of the annuity.
The payoff amount for living in the house for 12 years is $129,931.24.
Check the attached document for the calculation.
Annual Payments refers to the total amount of payments expected to be paid or received, as applicable, under Material Contract divided by the total number of years the Material Contract is expected to be in effect.
A stream of equal cash flows with a set number of periods is known as an annuity.
We calculate the present value of the annuity to determine the payback amount for living in the house for 12 years. For staying in the house for 12 years, the payment amount is $129,931.24.

In a Fox News Poll conducted in October 2011, 904 registered voters nationwide answered the following question: "Do you think illegal immigrants who have lived in the United States since they were children should be eligible for legal citizenship, or not?" 63% answered "should be" eligible for legal citizenship with a margin of error of 3% at a 95% level of confidence.
Which of the following statements is correct?
a) We are 95% confident that 63% of all registered voters nationwide will answer "should be."
b) We are 95% confident that between 60% and 66% of all registered voters nationwide will answer "should be."
c) We are 95% confident that between 63% and 66% of all registered voters nationwide will answer "should be."
d) 95% of the 904 registered voters in the sample answered "should be."
Answer:
The correct answer is Option B .
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
Eligible for legal citizenship = 63%
Error = 3%
Level of confidence = 95%
Here, the CI is 63% ± 3% , which means 60% to 66% and this indicates that with 95% confidence, the true proportion lies between this interval
This is shown by option B
Hence, option B is correct answer
The correct interpretation of the poll results, with a 63% response rate and a 3% margin of error at a 95% confidence level, is that between 60% and 66% of all registered voters nationwide think illegal immigrants who have lived in the U.S. since they were children should be eligible for legal citizenship.
The question asks to determine which statement accurately interprets the results of a Fox News Poll regarding the opinion of registered voters about whether illegal immigrants who have lived in the U.S. since they were children should be eligible for legal citizenship. The poll found that 63% answered "should be" eligible for legal citizenship, with a margin of error of 3% at a 95% level of confidence.
The correct interpretation of this poll's result is Option b: We are 95% confident that between 60% and 66% of all registered voters nationwide will answer "should be." This is because the margin of error provides a range that is above and below the observed percentage, covering a total of 6 percentage points around the observed value (63% ± 3%). This range indicates where the true percentage of the entire population's opinion is likely to fall 95% of the time.
It costs Glenwood, Inc. $82 per unit to manufacture 1,000 units per month of a product that it can sell for $122 each. Alternatively, Glenwood could process the units further into a more complex product, which would cost an additional $36 per unit. Glenwood could sell the more complex product for $162 each. How would processing the product further affect Glenwood's profit?
Explanation:
Total number of units to be manufactured = 1000
(i) The cost price of 1 unit = $ 82
The cost price of 1000 units = 82 * 1000 = $ 82000
Selling price of 1 unit = $ 122
The selling price of 1000 units = 122 * 1000 = $ 122000
Profit earned = 122000 - 82000 = $ 40000
(ii)To produce a complex product,
The cost price of 1 unit = $ 82 + $ 36 = $ 118
The cost price of 1000 units = 118 * 1000 = $ 118000
Selling price of 1 unit = $ 162
The selling price of 1000 units = 162 * 1000 = $ 162000
Profiy earned = 162000 - 118000 = $ 44000
Therefore, the profit would increase by $ 4000 if complex product was produced.
Coachlight Inc. has a periodic inventory system. The company purchased 205 units of inventory at $9.50 per unit and 310 units at $10.50 per unit. What is the weighted average unit cost for these purchases of inventory? (Round your final answer to two decimal places.)
Answer:
Weighted average cost per unit = $10.10
Explanation:
We know,
Under weighted average unit cost, the cost for purchased inventory = Total inventory costs ÷ total inventory in units
Given,
Total inventory in units = 205 + 310 = 515 units
Total inventory costs = (205 units × $9.50) + (310 units × $10.50)
= $1,947.50 + $3,255 = $5,202.50
Therefore,
Weighted average cost per unit = $5,202.50 ÷ 515 units
Weighted average cost per unit = $10.10
Therefore, the company will use this cost per unit to determine cost of goods sold and ending inventory.
Vegas Company has the following unit costs: Variable manufacturing overhead $ 40 Direct materials 35 Direct labor 34 Fixed manufacturing overhead 27 Variable marketing and administrative 22 Vegas produced and sold 13,000 units. If the product sells for $190, what is the operating profit under full absorption costing?
Answer:
$702,000
Explanation:
The computation of operating profit is shown below:-
Direct material = $35
Direct labor = $34
Variable manufacturing Overheads = $40
Fixed manufacturing overheads = $27
Product cost in units = Direct material + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing Overheads + Fixed manufacturing overheads
= $35 + $34 + $40 + $27
= $136
Total expenses = 13,000 × $136
= $1,768,000
Sales revenue = 13,000 × $190
= $2,470,000
So total operating profit = Total expenses - Sales revenue
= $1,768,000 - $2,470,000
= $702,000
Therefore, in this method we ignore the variable marketing and administrative cost in the question for determining the operating profit.
The operating profit under full absorption costing is $161.54.
Explanation:To calculate the operating profit under full absorption costing, we need to consider the total manufacturing costs and the total marketing and administrative costs. The total manufacturing costs per unit can be calculated by adding the variable manufacturing overhead, direct materials, direct labor, and fixed manufacturing overhead. The total manufacturing costs per unit are $((40 + 35 + 34 + 27) / 13000) = $6.46.
The total marketing and administrative costs per unit are given as $22. To calculate the operating profit, we subtract the total costs per unit from the selling price per unit:
Operating Profit = Selling Price per Unit - (Total Manufacturing Costs per Unit + Total Marketing and Administrative Costs per Unit)
Operating Profit = $190 - ($6.46 + $22) = $190 - $28.46 = $161.54.

With regards to social welfare, oligopolists forming a cooperative alliance is : Group of answer choices bad because because prices are too high and output is too low bad because output is too high and prices are too high good because it leads to less disagreement and lower prices and more variety good because forming a cooperative alliance closely resembles a perfectly competitive outcome
Answer:
With regards to social welfare, oligopolists forming a cooperative alliance is bad because because prices are too high and output is too low.
Explanation:
Oligopoly is a market structure with a small number of firms controlled by few producers thereby reducing competition.
The firms that come together to form an oligopolistic alliance need to see the benefits of collaboration over costs of economic competition, then agree to not compete and instead agree on the benefits of co-operation.
With regards to social welfare, oligopolists forming a cooperative alliance is , either explicitly or tacitly, to restrict output and/or fix prices, in order to achieve above normal market returns thereby increasing the prices of commodity.

Suppose the rate of return on a 10-year T-bond is currently 5.00% and that on a 10-year Treasury Inflation Protected Security (TIPS) is 2.10%. Suppose further that the maturity risk premium on a 10-year T-bond is 1.0%, that no maturity risk premium is required on TIPS, and that no liquidity premiums are required on any T-bonds. Given this data, what is the expected rate of inflation over the next 10 years
Answer:
1.90%
Explanation:
For TIPS provide rate of real rate,
Inflation rate=return on T bond-return on TIPS-maturity risk premium and it is equal to
= 5%-2.10%-1%=1.90%.
Therefore the expected rate of inflation over the next 10 years is 1.90%
Answer:
The inflation rate over the next 10 years = 1.90%.
Explanation:
Nominal interest rate = real risk-free rate + inflation premium + default risk premium + liquidity premium +maturity risk premium.
Making Inflation premium the subject of the formula, we have:
Inflation premium = Nominal interest rate - real risk-free rate -inflation premium - default risk premium - liquidity premium - maturity risk premium.
Inflation premium = 5% - 2.10% - 0 -0 -1.0% = 1.90%.
Therefore, the inflation rate over the next 10 years = 1.90%.

In the London market, Rolls-Royce stock closed at £0.875 per share. On the same day, the British Pound sterling to the U.S. dollar spot exchange rate was £0.6366/$1.00. Rolls Royce trades as an ADR in the OTC market in the United States. Five underlying Rolls-Royce shares are packaged into one ADR. If the Rolls Royce ADRs were trading at $5.75 when the underlying shares were trading in London at £0.875, ignoring transaction costs, the arbitrage trading profit would be A. $0.00. B. $1.12. C. $2.12. D. $3.12.
Answer:
B. $1.12
Explanation:
The computation of arbitrage trading profit is shown below:-
Euro Share price = £0.875
Spot rate R = £0.6366/$1.00
1 ADR Share price in US = $5.75
1 ADR = 5 share of shares
Now, The actual price of 1 ADR P1 = 5 × Euro Share price ÷ Share price in US
= 5 × £0.875 ÷ £0.6366
= $6.87
Therefore, The Arbitrage profit = Actual price - trading price
= Actual price - Price in US
= $6.87 - $5.75
= $1.12
Therefore for computing the arbitrage trading profit we simply applied the above formula.

Then We equalize both to induce the equilibrium quantity (Qe)
Then 4 - 2/3Qe is = 1 + 1/3Qe
After that Qe (2/3 + 1/3) is = 4 - 1
Then Qe = 3
Then we solve for equilibrium price (Pe)
Then Pe = 4 - 2/3 x 3 = 4 - 2 = 2
After that Pe = 1 + 1/3 x 3 = 1 + 1 = 2
Now, The Price elasticity of demand at equilibrium is:
Then variation in quantity / variation in price that is
After that we solve for Q when P = 3 and compare the variation
That is (1.33-3) / (3 - 2) = -1.66/1 = -1.66
Thus, Price elasticity of supply at equilibrium is: ( 6 - 3) / (3 - 2) = 3 / 1 = 3

On December 31, 2018, a company had assets of $28 billion and stockholders' equity of $20 billion. That same company had assets of $56 billion and stockholders' equity of $18 billion as of December 31, 2019. During 2019, the company reported total sales revenue of $21 billion and total expenses of $19 billion. What is the company's debt-to-assets ratio on December 31, 2019
Answer: 0.68
Explanation:
The Debt-to-Assets ratio is a leverage ratio in financial Analysis that is intended to show how much of the company's assets are funded by debt.
It is calculated by dividing the Company's entire debt by it's Total Assets.
We have the Assets as at the 31st of December 2019 as well as the Equity. Now we need to find debt.
Remember the Accounting Equation,
Assets = Equity + Liability
So,
Liability = Assets - Equity
= 56 billion - 18 billion
= $38 billion.
Using the Debt-to-Assets ratio formula then we have,
= Debt /Assets
= 38/56
= 0.67857142857
= 0.68
0.68 is the company's debt-to-assets ratio on December 31, 2019.

KLA Company provided the following data for 2018: sales, $800,000; beginning inventory, $40,000; ending inventory, $45,000; and gross profit, $150,000. What was the amount of inventory that KLA purchased during 2018
Answer:
$655,000= cost of goods purchased
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
sales, $800,000
beginning inventory, $40,000
ending inventory, $45,000
gross profit, $150,000
First, we need to calculate the cost of goods sold.
Gross profit= sales - cost of goods sold
Cost fo goods sold= sales - gross profit
COGS= $650,000
Now, we can determine the purchases using the following formula:
COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods purchased - ending finished inventory
650,000= 40,000 + cost of goods purchased - 45,000
655,000= cost of goods purchased
Erie Company manufactures a mobile fitness device called the Jogging Mate. The company uses standards to control its costs. The labor standards that have been set for one Jogging Mate are as follows: Standard Hours Standard Rate per Hour Standard Cost 27 minutes $5.80 $2.61 During August, 9,565 hours of direct labor time were needed to make 19,700 units of the Jogging Mate. The direct labor cost totaled $54,521 for the month. Required: 1. What is the standard labor-hours allowed (SH) to makes 19,700 Jogging Mates? 2. What is the standard labor cost allowed (SH × SR) to make 19,700 Jogging Mates? 3. What is the labor spending variance? 4. What is the labor rate variance and the labor efficiency variance? 5. The budgeted variable manufacturing overhead rate is $4.10 per direct labor-hour. During August, the company incurred $43,999 in variable manufacturing overhead cost. Compute the variable overhead rate and efficiency variances for the month.
1. The standard labor hours allowed to make 19,700 Jogging Mates is approximately 9198.33 hours. 2. The standard labor cost allowed to make 19,700 Jogging Mates is approximately $53,344.33. 3. The labor spending variance is approximately -$1,176.67. 4. The labor rate variance is $0 and the labor efficiency variance is $1,176.67. 5. The variable overhead rate variance is $0 and the variable overhead efficiency variance is approximately -$1,516.60.
Explanation:1. The standard labor hours allowed (SH) to make 19,700 Jogging Mates can be calculated by multiplying the number of units produced by the standard labor time per unit:
Standard labor hours allowed = Number of units produced × Standard labor time per unit
Standard labor-hours allowed = 19,700 units × 27 minutes / 60 minutes per hour = 9198.33 hours
Therefore, the standard labor hours allowed to make 19,700 Jogging Mates is approximately 9198.33 hours.
2. The standard labor cost allowed (SH × SR) to make 19,700 Jogging Mates can be calculated by multiplying the standard labor hours allowed by the standard rate per hour:
Standard labor cost allowed = Standard labor hours allowed × Standard rate per hour
Standard labor cost allowed = 9198.33 hours × $5.80 per hour = $53,344.33
Therefore, the standard labor cost allowed to make 19,700 Jogging Mates is approximately $53,344.33.
3. The labor spending variance can be calculated by subtracting the actual labor cost from the standard labor cost allowed:
Labor spending variance = Standard labor cost allowed - Actual labor cost
Labor spending variance = $53,344.33 - $54,521 = -$1,176.67
Therefore, the labor spending variance is approximately -$1,176.67.
4. The labor rate variance can be calculated by multiplying the actual hours of direct labor by the difference between the actual rate per hour and the standard rate per hour:
Labor rate variance = Actual hours of direct labor × (Actual rate per hour - Standard rate per hour)
Labor rate variance = 9,565 hours × ($5.80 per hour - $5.80 per hour) = $0
Therefore, the labor rate variance is $0.
The labor efficiency variance can be calculated by subtracting the standard labor cost allowed from the actual labor cost:
Labor efficiency variance = Actual labor cost - Standard labor cost allowed
Labor efficiency variance = $54,521 - $53,344.33 = $1,176.67
Therefore, the labor efficiency variance is $1,176.67.
5. The variable overhead rate variance can be calculated by multiplying the actual hours of direct labor by the difference between the actual variable overhead rate and the budgeted variable manufacturing overhead rate:
Variable overhead rate variance = Actual hours of direct labor × (Actual variable overhead rate - Budgeted variable manufacturing overhead rate)
Variable overhead rate variance = 9,565 hours × ($4.10 per hour - $4.10 per hour) = $0
Therefore, the variable overhead rate variance is $0.
The variable overhead efficiency variance can be calculated by subtracting the standard hours allowed from the actual hours of direct labor and multiplying by the budgeted variable manufacturing overhead rate:
Variable overhead efficiency variance = (Actual hours of direct labor - Standard hours allowed) × Budgeted variable manufacturing overhead rate
Variable overhead efficiency variance = (9,565 hours - 9198.33 hours) × $4.10 per hour = -$1,516.60
Therefore, the variable overhead efficiency variance is approximately -$1,516.60.

Baird Company has a choice of two investment alternatives. The present value of cash inflows and outflows for the first alternative is $135,000 and $104,000, respectively. The present value of cash inflows and outflows for the second alternative is $310,000 and $267,500, respectively. Required Calculate the net present value of each investment opportunity. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign.) Calculate the present value index for each investment opportunity. (Round "PVI" to 2 decimal places.) Indicate which investment will produce the higher rate of return.
Answer:
Investment A:
NPV = $31,000
PVI = 1.298
Investment B:
NPV = $42,500
PVI = 1.1588
Investment A should produce a higher return as it has a higher present value index
Explanation:
INVESTMENT A:
Present value of cash inflows = $135,000
Present value of cash outflows = $104,000
Net present value (NPV) = (present value of inflows - present value of outflows)
NPV = $135,000 - $104,000
NPV = $31,000
PRESENT VALUE INDEX(PVI) = (present value of cash inflow ÷ present value of cash outflow)
PVI = ($135,000/$104,000)
PVI = 1.298
INVESTMENT B:
INVESTMENT A:
Present value of cash inflows = $310,000
Present value of cash outflows = $267,500
Net present value (NPV) = (present value of inflows - present value of outflows)
NPV = $310,000 - $267,500
NPV = $42,500
PRESENT VALUE INDEX(PVI) = (present value of cash inflow ÷ present value of cash outflow)
PVI = ($310,000/$267,500)
PVI = 1.159
Xion Co. budgets a selling price of $81 per unit, variable costs of $34 per unit, and total fixed costs of $280,000. During June, the company produced and sold 11,800 units and incurred actual variable costs of $361,000 and actual fixed costs of $295,000. Actual sales for June were $985,000. Prepare a flexible budget report showing variances between budgeted and actual results. List variable and fixed expenses separately. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting for favorable, unfavorable, and no variance)
The flexible budget report shows variances between the budgeted and actual results for Xion Co. The variances for variable and fixed expenses are calculated separately. The variable expenses had an unfavorable variance of $1,000, while the fixed expenses had a favorable variance of $15,000.
Explanation:The flexible budget report shows variances between the budgeted and actual results for Xion Co. Given that the company budgeted a selling price of $81 per unit, variable costs of $34 per unit, and total fixed costs of $280,000, the actual results for June were 11,800 units sold, actual variable costs of $361,000, and actual fixed costs of $295,000. The actual sales for June were $985,000. Let's calculate the variances:
Variable Expenses:
Total budgeted variable costs = Budgeted units x Budgeted variable cost per unit = 11,800 x $34 = $401,200
Total actual variable costs = Actual units x Actual variable cost per unit = 11,800 x $34 = $400,200
Variance = Total actual variable costs - Total budgeted variable costs = $400,200 - $401,200 = -$1,000 (unfavorable variance)
Fixed Expenses:
Total budgeted fixed costs = $280,000
Total actual fixed costs = $295,000
Variance = Total actual fixed costs - Total budgeted fixed costs = $295,000 - $280,000 = $15,000 (favorable variance)
Therefore, the variable expenses had an unfavorable variance of $1,000, and the fixed expenses had a favorable variance of $15,000.
