Consider two perfectly negatively correlated risky securities, A and B. Security A has an expected rate of return of 12% and a standard deviation of return of 17%. B has an expected rate of return of 9% and a standard deviation of return of 14%.
Required:
a. What are the weights of A and B in the global minimum variance portfolio respectively?
b. What is the rate of return on the risk-free portfolio that can be formed with the two securities ?
Answer:
A) Weight of Security A = 0.45
Weight of Security B = 0.55
B)Risk free rate = 10.35%
Explanation:
We are given;
A) Expected rate of return for Security A; ERR = 12%
Standard deviation of return for Security A; SD = 17%
Expected rate of return for Security B; ERR = 9%
Standard deviation of return for Security B; SD = 14%
Now, formula for weight of Security A is;
Weight of security A = SD of security B ÷ (SD of security B + SD of security A)
Weight of Security A = 14%/(14% + 17%)
Weight of Security A ≈ 0.45
Weight of Security B = 1 - weight of Security A
Weight of Security B = 1 - 0.45
Weight of Security B = 0.55
B) Formula for the risk free rate is;
Risk free rate = (weight of Security A × ERR of security A) + (weight of Security B × ERR of security B)
Risk free rate = (0.45 × 12%) + (0.55 × 9%)
Risk free rate = 10.35%

What is the difference between earning a wage and earning a salary?
Answer:
Wages are the money your employer pays you for the hours you work each week. A salary, on the other hand, typically defines a fixed amount your employer pays you, not necessarily for specific hours worked but for completing the duties of your job
Explanation:
Assume that you have entered into a fixed for fixed currency swap agreement under which every 6 months you agree to pay 3% on a notional of 110M USD and receive 4% on a notional of 100M EUR. On the date you signed the contract the spot exchange rate is 1.1 USD/EUR. Six months later the spot exchange rate is 1.05 USD/EUR. Your actual payment net of what you receive at the first payment date equals to :__________
Answer: -0.55M USD
Explanation:
The payment made will be:
= 3%/2 × 110M USD
= 0.03/2 × 110M USD
= 1.65M USD
The amount received will be:
= 4%/2 × 100M EUR
= 2% × 100M EUR
= 0.02 × 100M EUR
= 2M EUR
Since exchange rate = 1.1 USD/EUR
2M EUR = 2 × 1.1 = 2.2M USD
Therefore, net payment will be:
= 1.65M - 2.2M
= - 0.55M USD

Explanation:
Cherry Valley Lumber's (CVL) lumber mill produces boards of various sizes and quality specifications for the home construction industry. CVL incurs joint costs in the initial phases of processing raw timber, such as transporting the logs to the mill, removing the bark from the logs, and cutting rough-cut boards. After the split-off point, CVL incurs costs in the Planing Department to finalize the finished boards of various grades and sizes. Which of the following statements regarding the costs at CVL is true?
a. The costs to finish the boards after the split-off point will not be traced directly to the finished boards according to the various grades and sizes produced. The costs for transporting the logs, removing bark, and cutting the rough-cut boards before the split-off point will be traced to the final finished boards.
b. The costs for transporting the logs, removing bark, and cutting the rough-cut boards before the split-off point will not be directly traced to the final finished boards. All costs to finish the boards after the split-off point will be traced directly to the finished boards according to the various grades and sizes produced.
c. It will be impossible for CVL to directly trace any costs to the finished boards of various grades and sizes.
d. CVL will be able to directly trace all costs before and after the split-off point to the finished boards of various grades and sizes.
Answer:
Cherry Valley Lumber's (CVL)
The statement regarding the costs at CVL that is true is:
b. The costs for transporting the logs, removing bark, and cutting the rough-cut boards before the split-off point will not be directly traced to the final finished boards. All costs to finish the boards after the split-off point will be traced directly to the finished boards according to the various grades and sizes produced.
Explanation:
This is why the costs at split-off are usually apportioned to the different categories of products based on some chosen criteria, e.g. sales value, size, etc. However, after split-off, costs that are incurred can easily be traced to the various grades and sizes of boards produced. This simply means that after split-off, costs become traceable and direct to each board category.

Thermopolis, Inc. reported retained earnings of $490,953 on December 31, 2017. During the year, Thermopolis recorded net income of $135,075 and paid dividends of $57,762. The company had no other transactions that affected retained earnings. What must retained earnings have been on December 31, 2016
Answer:
the Opening retained earning balance is $413,640
Explanation:
The computation of the retained earnings have been on December 31, 2016 is shown below:
As we know that
Ending retained earning balance = Opening retained earning balance + net income - dividend paid
$490,953 = Opening retained earning balance + $135,075 - $57,762
$490,953 = Opening retained earning balance + $77,313
So, the Opening retained earning balance is $413,640
A purely domestic firm that sources and sells only domestically, Multiple Choice should never hedge since this could actually increase its currency exposure. faces no exchange rate risk and should never hedge since this could actually increase its currency exposure. faces no exchange rate risk. faces exchange rate risk to the extent that it has international competitors in the domestic market.
Answer:
faces exchange rate risk to the extent that it has international competitors in the domestic market.
Explanation:
Exchange rate risk is defined as the risk that exists when a company engaged in transactions that are denominated in a foreign currency rather than the domestic currency.
So if a purely domestic firm that sources and sells only domestically has international competitors in its local market, and the exchange rate is favouring the competitors there will be a risk for them.
For example if international competitors can source raw materials cheaper because of the exchange rate of a foreign country, it will be a disadvantage to local firms that cannot reduce their prices.
Department A had no Work-in-Process at the beginning of the period, 4,400 units were completed during the period, 540 units were 50% completed at the end of the period, and the following manufacturing costs were debited to the departmental Work-in-Process account during the period: Direct materials (1,540 at $10) $ 15,400 Direct labor 32,173 Factory overhead 25,735 Assuming that all direct materials are added at the beginning of production and Department A uses weighted-average process costing, what is the total cost of the departmental Work-in-Process Inventory at the end of the period
Answer:
the ending inventory is $8,748
Explanation:
The computation of the total cost of the departmental Work-in-Process Inventory at the end of the period is shown below:
Materials is $10 per unit
And, the conversion cost is
= ($32,173 + $25,735) ÷ (4,400 units + 540 units ÷ 2)
= $57,908 ÷ 4,670
= $12.4
Now the ending inventory is
= 540 units × $10 per unit + 270 units × $12.4
= $8,748
Hence, the ending inventory is $8,748
Explain how art sellers use the 4 P's of marketing to promote expensive art to the desired patrons. Then, consider: Do you think it makes sense to view art as a product and promote it using the marketing mix? How is it similar to other products? On the other hand, what makes art different or "special" in comparison to the products we usually buy in a store?
Explanation:
Yes, the art market can benefit from the use of the marketing mix, since the 4p's of marketing, which are the product, price, place and promotion, will directly influence the positioning of a product in the market and consequently increase sales.
In the case of works of art, the marketing mix helps to align marketing strategies to reach the potential audience that consumes art. It can then be considered that the arts make up a specific type of market niche, which has consumers willing to pay certain prices according to the artist, the rarity of the artwork, the time, etc. Therefore, the marketing mix works as a strategic set that will help art sellers to position their product with their consumers and thus achieve the final goal of making sales.

The Buck Store is considering a project that will require additional inventory of $216,000 and will increase accounts payable by $181,000. Accounts receivable are currently $525,000 and are expected to increase by 9 percent if this project is accepted. What is the project's initial cash flow for net working capital
Answer:
$607,250 outflow
Explanation:
Net Working Capital is the amount of money needed to maintain operations on a day to day basis.
Net Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities
where,
Current Assets are calculated as :
Inventory $216,000
Accounts Receivable ($525,000 x 1.09) $575,250
Total $788,250
and
Current Liabilities = $181,000
therefore,
Net Working Capital = $788,250 - $181,000 = $607,250
Conclusion
The project's initial cash flow for net working capital is $607,250 outflow.
Madison Corporation's production cycle starts in the Processing Department. The following information is available for April: Units Work-in-process, April 1 (25% complete) 50,000 Total units in process during April 290,000 Work-in-process, April 30 (60% complete) 30,000 Materials are added at the beginning of the process in the Processing Department. What are the equivalent units of production for the month of April, assuming Madison uses the weighted-average method
Answer:
Equivalent units of production= 278,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Total units in process during April 290,000
Work-in-process, April 30 (60% complete) 30,000
The weighted average method blends the costs and units of the previous period with the costs and units of the current period.
To calculate the equivalent units, we need to use the following formula:
Units completed in the period + Equivalent units in ending inventory WIP (units*%completion) = Equivalent units of production
Equivalent units of production= (290,000 - 30,000) + 30,000*0.6
Equivalent units of production= 278,000
Elfalan Corporation produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the company's normal activity level of 51,000 units per month is as follows:
Direct materials $48.10
Direct labor $9.20
Variable manufacturing overhead $2.20
Fixed manufacturing overhead $19.50
Variable selling & administrative expense $4.00
Fixed selling & administrative expense $19.00
The normal selling price of the product is $108.10 per unit.
An order has been received from an overseas customer for 3,100 units to be delivered this month at a special discounted price. This order would not change the total amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $2.30 less per unit on this order than on normal sales.
Direct labor is a variable cost in this company.
Suppose there is not enough idle capacity to produce all of the units for the overseas customer and accepting the special order would require cutting back on production of 1,250 units for regular customers.
The minimum acceptable price per unit for the special order is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
a. $92.10 per unit
b. $108.10 per unit
c. $69.10 per unit
d. $79.18 per unit
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
Direct material = $48.10
Direct labor = $9.20
Variable manufacturing = $2.20
Fixed manufacturing = $19.50
Variable admin expenses = $4.0
Selling price = $108.10

Dellarocco Incorporated makes a single product--a cooling coil used in commercial refrigerators. The company has a standard cost system in which it applies overhead to this product based on the standard labor-hours allowed for the actual output of the period. Data concerning the most recent year appear below: Budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead $ 355,740 Budgeted hours 49,000 labor-hours Actual fixed manufacturing overhead $ 372,740 Actual hours 45,600 labor-hours The fixed overhead budget variance is:
Answer:
the fixed overhead budget variance is $17,000 unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of the fixed overhead budgeted variance is shown below:
= Budgeted overhead - actual overhead
= $355,740 - $372,740
= $17,000 unfavorable
Since the budgeted overhead is less than the actual overhead so it is an unfavorable variance
Hence, the fixed overhead budget variance is $17,000 unfavorable

Von Bora Corporation is expected pay a dividend of $1.40 per share at the end of this year and a $1.50 per share at the end of the second year. You expect Von Bora's stock price to be $25.00 at the end of two years. Von Bora's equity cost of capital is 10%. The price you would be willing to pay today for a share of Von Bora stock, if you plan to hold the stock for two years is closest to:
Answer:
Price of share today = $23.17
Explanation:
The value of a stock using the dividend valuation model, is the present value of the expected cash inflows discounted at the required rate of return. The required rate of return is the cost of equity.
The cost of equity is 10% in this scenario
The price of the share will be determined as follows:
$
Present value of Dividend in yr 1 = 1.40× 1.1^(-1)= 1.27
Present value of Dividend in yr 2 = 1.50 × 1.1^(-2)=1.24
Present value of share in yr 2 = 25× 1.1^(-2) = 20.66
Present value of total cash inflow 23.17
Price of share today = $23.17
Stocks are considered as a financial instruments that represents a firm's ownership stake. Stocks are tool for investors to grow their money and surpass inflation over time.
The computation of the capital gain for the first year is shown below;
Current value = Future dividend and value × Present value of discounting factor(rate%, time period)
= $1.4 ÷ 1.1 + $1.5 ÷ 1.1^2 + $25 ÷ 1.1^2
= $23.15
Hence, the capital gain for the first year is $23.15

The Finishing Department had 6,800 incomplete units in its beginning Work-in-Process Inventory which were 100% complete as to materials and 40% complete as to conversion costs. 18,600 units were received from the previous department. The ending Work-in-Process Inventory consisted of 3,800 units which were 50% complete as to materials and 40% complete as to conversion costs. The Finishing Department uses first-in, first-out (FIFO) process costing. How many units were started and completed during the period
Answer:
14,800 units
Explanation:
To understand units started and completed principle, ask yourself, "Out of the units Started during the year, how many units were Completed?"
Since we are using FIFO the units in Inventory will be worked on first followed by the units introduced in process during the year.
So this can be calculated out of units completed as follows :
Units started and completed = Units Started - Units in Ending Work in Process
therefore,
Units started and completed = 18,600 - 3,800 = 14,800 units
Conclusion :
Units started and completed during the period were 14,800 units.

Fairfield Company allocates common Building Department costs to producing departments (P1 and P2) based on space occupied, and it allocates common Personnel Department costs based on the number of employees. Space occupancy and employee data are as follows: Building Personnel Dept. P1 Dept. P2 Space occupied 2,000 ft. 10,000 ft. 120,000 ft. 70,000 ft. Employees 6 10 80 50 If Fairfield Company uses the direct allocation method, the ratio representing the portion of building costs allocated to Department P1 is a.120,000/202,000. b.190,000/202,000. c.2,000/120,000. d.120,000/190,000.
Answer:
d.120,000/190,000
Explanation:
It is given that Fairfield Company is constructing building department (P1 and P2) in the space provided and it allocates the common Personnel Department cost that is based on number of employees.
From the table given in the question, we can find
The ratio representing the portion of the building cost allocated to the department P1 = [tex]$\frac{120,000}{(120,000+70,000)}$[/tex]
The ratio representing the portion of the building cost allocated to the department P1 = [tex]$\frac{120,000}{190,000}$[/tex]
