Stock Y has a beta of 1.10 and an expected return of 13.15 percent. Stock Z has a beta of .80 and an expected return of 6 percent. If the risk-free rate is 5.0 percent and the market risk premium is 7.6 percent, what are the reward-to-risk ratios of Y and Z?
Answer:
For Y = 7.31%
For Z = 1.25%
Explanation:
The computation of reward-to-risk ratios of Y and Z is shown below:-
Reward to Risk Ratio = (Expected Return of Security - Risk free Return) ÷ Beta of Security
Reward to Risk Ratio Y = (13.05% - 5%) ÷ 1.10
= 7.31%
Reward to Risk Ratio Z = (6% - 5%) ÷ 0.80
= 1.25%
hence, the same is to be considered
Four people each have a different willingness to pay for one unit of a good: George will pay $15, Glen will pay $12, Tom will pay $10, and Peter will pay $8. If price decreases from $9 to $8 then the consumer surplus from this unit will increase by___. The consumer surplus is calculated as the marginal benefit or the value of the good minus its price, then summed over the quantity bought. If the price is $9, there are only 3 people (George, Glen, and Tom) who would buy the goods. Since Peter wants to pay $8, he will not buy this good since its price ($9) is higher than his willingness to pay. The consumer surpluses for George, Glen, and Tom are $6 (=15 - 9), $3 (=12 - 9), and $1 (=10 - 9), respectively. The total consumer surplus would be $10 (= 6 + 3 + 1). If the price is $8, all of them would be willing to buy the goods. The consumer surpluses for George, Glen, Tom, and Peter are $7 (=15 - 8) $4 (=12 - 8), $2 (=10 - 8), and $0 (=8 - 8), respectively. The total consumer surplus would be $13 (= 7 + 4 + 2). Thus, if price decreases from $9 to $8 then the consumer surplus from this unit will increase by $3. If the price increases from $9 to $11, what would be the decrease in consumer surplus?
Answer:
If price decreases from $9 to $8 then the consumer surplus from this unit will increase by $3.
Explanation:
total consumer surplus = ($15 + $12 + $10 + $8) - (4 x $8) = $45 - $32 = $13. Consumer surplus is the difference between the maximum amount that consumers are willing to pay for a good or service, and its actual price.
when the price was $9 per unit, total consumer surplus = ($15 + $12 + $10) - (3 x $9) = $37 - $27 = $10.
that means that consumer surplus increased by $13 - $10 = $3

First City Bank pays 7 percent simple interest on its savings account balances, whereas Second City Bank pays 7 percent interest compounded annually.If you made a $64,000 deposit in each bank, how much more money would you earn from your Second City Bank account at the end of 9 years? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))
Answer:
$13,341.39
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
For First city bank,
The Future value is
= $64,000 + $64,000 × 7%× 9
= $64,000 + $40,320
= $104,320
And for Second city bank,
Given that
NPER = 9,
RATE = 7%,
PV = $64,000
PMT = $0
The formula is shown below:
=-FV(RATE;NPER;PMT;PV;TYPE)
After applying the above formula, the future value is $117,661.39
Now finally
More money would be
= $117,661.39- $104,320
= $13,341.39

Red Sun Rising just paid a dividend of $2.52 per share. The company said that it will increase the dividend by 30% and 25 over the next two years, respectively. After that, the company is expected to increase its annual dividend at 3.8%. If the required return is 11.8%, what is the stock price today?a. $45.44.b. $42.51.c. $47.08.d. $25.00.e. $48.72.
Answer: e. $48.72.
Explanation:
Dividend next year is = 2.52 * (1 + 30%) = $3.276
Dividend in two years = 3.276 * ( 1 + 25%) = $4.095
Then calculate the terminal value at year 2;
= (Dividend * (1 + growth rate))/ (Required return - growth rate)
= (4.095 * (1 + 3.8%)) / (11.8% - 3.8%)
= $53.132625
Add their present values up;
= (3.276/( 1 + 11.8%)) + (4.095 / (1 + 11.8%)) + (53.132625 / ( 1 + 11.8%))
= $48.72
The basic principle involved with expense recognition is: Multiple Choice All costs that are used to generate revenue are recorded in the period the revenue is recognized. All transactions are recorded at the exchange price. The business is separate from its owners. The business will continue to operate indefinitely unless there is evidence to the contrary.A company orders office supplies in June. Those supplies are received and paid for in July. The supplies are used in August. In which month should the company record supplies expense
Answer:
All costs that are used to generate revenue are recorded in the period the revenue is recognized
Supplies expense is recorded in August
Explanation:
Expenses are the cost that a company incurs in the process of generating revenue from an asset. As such when a business is paying cost like wages, rent, and office materials it is generating revenue from sales and services provided.
The expense recognition principle requires that a business records expenses when revenue associated with them are recognised.
An office that orders office supply and uses them in August will only recognise supply expense when there is use of the office supply.
So supply expense will be recognised in August

(A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations an
Answer:
a. -$99,500
b. -$162,000
Explanation:
a. Cash Flow to Creditors = Interest paid - (Ending long-term debt - Beginning long-term debt)
Cash Flow to Creditors = $95,500 - ($1,610,000 - $1,415,000)
Cash Flow to Creditors = $95,500 - $195,000
Cash Flow to Creditors = -$99,500
b. Cash Flow to Stockholders = Dividends paid - [(Ending common stock + Ending additional paid-in surplus) - (Beginning common stock + Beginning additional paid-in surplus)]
Cash Flow to Stockholders = $148,000 - [($153,000 + $2,980,000) - ($143,000 + $2,680,000)]
Cash Flow to Stockholders = $148,000 - [$3,133,000 - $2,823,000] = $148,000 - $310,000
Cash Flow to Stockholders = -$162,000

A shirt manufacturer buys cloth by the 100 yard roll from a supplier. For setting up a control chart to manage the irregularities (e.g., loose threads and tears) the following data was collected from a sample provided by the supplier.
a. Determine the c¯ , Sp, UCL and LCL for a c -chart with z = 2. (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer: see attachments
Explanation:
For a c -chart with z = 2 (irregularities in 10 samples) ; c¯ = 4.3, SP = 2.07, UCL = 8.45, LCL = 0.15.
What do you mean by Sample?A sample is a condensed, controllable representation of a larger group. It is a subgroup of people with traits from a wider population.
Calculate the average irregularities per sample
Total irregularities in 10 samples = 43
No of samples = 10
Average irregularities / sample c¯ =43/10 = 4.3
This is the center line of the control chart denoted by
Sp = sqrt(4.3) = 2.07
Assuming Z value for control chart = 2; Since this is not mentioned here
UCL = 4.3 + z
UCL = 4.3 + 2*
UCL = 8.45
LCL = - z
LCL = 4.3 - 2*
LCL = 0.15
Therefore, c¯ = 4.3, SP = 2.07, UCL = 8.45, LCL = 0.15.

Equipment costing $17,500 with an estimated salvage value of $1,180 and an estimated life of 4 years was purchased on October 31, 2019. Using the straight-line depreciation method, what is the amount of depreciation expense to be recorded at December 31, 2019?
Answer:
the depreciation expense recorded is $680
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense under the straight-line method is shown below:
= (Purchase cost - residual value) ÷ (estimated life)
= ($17,500 - $1,180) ÷ ( 4 years)
= $4,080
Now the 2 months depreciation is i.e. from November to December
= $4,080 × 2 months ÷ 12 months
= $680
Hence, the depreciation expense recorded is $680

Perceived risk, which is defined as an individual’s degree of expected uncertainty associated with the result of using a certain technology (Tan and Lau, 2016). It includes five main groupings: service performance, monetary, time, societal, and security risks (Jacoby and Kaplan, 1972; Mha, 2015). Perceived risks in turn increase consumer hesitation and generate negative attitudes toward a service (Kalaiarasi and Srividya, 2012). This breeds a sense of anxiety and unease that in turn decreases the perceived value and usefulness of technology, thereby diminishing adoption intentions (Kumar, Arcand, Tai, 2012). Indeed, as stated by (Kazi and Mannan, 2013), electronic banking applications are associated with high perceived risks because consumers fear the exchange of personal financial information and services through online applications Moreover, studies have indicated that a high degree of perceived risk and insecurity is generally associated with mobile devices as people dread the loss or theft of these appliances and the information they hold (Hanafizadeh, 2013). Studies have also found that consumers fear the uncertainty associated with mobile applications, including system errors, software problems, connection troubles, and third party hacking (Tai and Ku, 2013). Therefore, high risks will significantly reduce an individual’s likelihood to adopt m-banking technologies (Kumar, Arcand, Tai, 2012).

A researcher wants to understand the role of ethnocentrism, animosity, and self-esteem on purchase intention towards Chinese products in Pakistan is explained below in complete details.
Explanation:
1. Independent variable are those variables which are shaped by the experimenter, also described the incentive variable. There are 3 Autonomous Variables
IV. - • Ethnocentrism • Animosity • Self Esteem
Dependent Variable- The variable that is covered, also termed acknowledgment variable.
DV -the purpose of acquiring Chinese commodities.
Moderator - moderator is the variable that improves the intensity of the association between IV and DV (as discussed in the description above)
Social Status is the moderator.
3. Alternative hypothesis - Social Status moderates the variation in the purchasing purpose of Chinese commodities between people of differing Ethnocentrism, self-esteem, and Animosity towards Chinese commodities in Pakistani people.
Null hypothesis - there is no distinction between the purchasing intention of people of differing Ethnocentrism, Self Esteem, and Animosity towards Chinese commodities in pakistani population.
Expando, Inc., is considering the possibility of building an additional factory that would produce a new addition to their product line. The company is currently considering two options. The first is a small facility that it could build at a cost of $9 million. If demand for new products is low, the company expects to receive $9 million in discounted revenues (present value of future revenues) with the small facility. On the other hand, if demand is high, it expects $12 million in discounted revenues using the small facility. The second option is to build a large factory at a cost of $10 million. Were demand to be low, the company would expect $12 million in discounted revenues with the large plant. If demand is high, the company estimates that the discounted revenues would be $15 million. In either case, the probability of demand being high is 0.40, and the probability of it being low is 0.60. Not constructing a new factory would result in no additional revenue being generated because the current factories cannot produce these new products.
a. Calculate the NPV for the following: (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Enter your answers in millions rounded to 1 decimal place.)
Plans NPV
Small facility $ million
Do nothing million
Large facility million
b. The best decision to help Expando is:_______.
a. to build the large facility.
b. to build the small facility.
c. to do nothing.
Answer:
a)
small facility:
initial outlay = -$9,000,000
present value of expected cash flows = (0.6 x $9,000,000) + (0.4 x $12,000,000) = $10,200,000
NPV = $10,200,000 - $9,000,000 = $1,200,000
large facility:
initial outlay = -$10,000,000
present value of expected cash flows = (0.6 x $12,000,000) + (0.4 x $15,000,000) = $13,200,000
NPV = $13,200,000 - $10,000,000 = $3,200,000
b) the best option is:
a. to build the large facility.the NPV of the large facility is significantly higher than the NPV of the smaller facility, while the required investment is not that different.

Consider a bank policy to maintain 12% of deposits as reserves. The bank currently has $10 million in deposits and holds $400,000 in excess reserves. What is the required reserve on a new deposit of $50,000?
Answer: $4,000
Explanation:
The required reserve and the excess reserve held by the bank are different because the required reserve is imposed by the central bank and the excess reserve is done by the bank.
The 12% reserves the bank is holding are both the excess and required reserves.
This means that the excess reserve is;
= 400,000/10,000,000
= 4%
The required reserve ratio will therefore be;
= 12% - 4 %
= 8%
Required reserve on $50,000 will be;
= 8% * 50,000
= $4,000
You decide that structural changes must be made immediately at Holden Evan to deal with the problems caused by the three SBU marketing teams. What should you do?
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
An additional challenge facing Holden Evan is the rise in costs of raw materials. Each of the SBUs currently maintains its own relationships with suppliers and is paying different prices for the same goods. The CEO of Holden Evan tells you that this is a serious issue for the company. "We must find a way to rein in these costs. I expect you to improve the company's efficiency and find other ways to reduce costs right away.
You decide that structural changes must be made immediately at Holden Evan to deal with the problems caused by the three SBU marketing teams. What should you do?
Answer:
The ideal would be to merge all marketing teams into one.
Explanation:
I would unite the three marketing teams that make up each SBU and form a single marketing team that should work in unity and serve all product lines in a unique and no longer individual way as was done previously. In this way, the cost of production and raw materials will be unique and more comprehensive, allowing greater control over expenses and team work.
The thing that should be done will be to merge all the marketing teams into one.
From the information given, the challenge that the company is facing is the rise in costs of raw materials since each of the SBUs currently maintains its own relationships with suppliers and is paying different prices for the same goods.
Therefore, in order to rein in these costs, it's important to merge all the marketing teams into one. Thus will be important in enhancing the company's efficiency and reducing cost.

A change in which of the following will cause the aggregate demand curve to shift?
A)
energy costs
B)
productivity of workers
C)
regulations
D)
consumer spending
Answer:
D) consumer spending
Explanation:
The aggregate demand is the total of all goods and services that consumers are willing and able to buy in the economy in a given period. It is the demand for all goods and services in the entire country per period. Price variation usually causes movements along the demand curve.
Other factors that influence governments, firms, and household expenditures cause the aggregate demand curve to shift. A change in consumer spending will reduce the number of goods demanded. The aggregate demand will shift inwards.
Steve Colburn's portable sawmill used 100% for business, was completely destroyed by fire. The sawmill had an adjusted basis of $35,000 and a fair market value of $50,000 before the fire. The sawmill was uninsured. Steve's casualty loss is:________.1) $49,900.
2) $50,000.
3) $35,000.
4) $34,900.
Answer: $35,000
Explanation:
A casualty loss is simply a loss that an individual or business incurs when a property is damaged, or destroyed due to an unexpected or sudden event like fire, volcanic eruption, flood etc.
Here, Steve's casualty loss will be gotten when we compare both his adjusted basis and the fair market value and then we choose the lesser one. Since $35000 is lesser than $50000, therefore the answer will be $35000.
