Answer: Option A
Explanation: For finance, an investment's beta (β or beta coefficient) is a measure of risk as opposed to idiosyncratic variables resulting from vulnerability to current market fluctuations.
The financial assets ' equity pool has a beta of precisely 1. A beta under 1 may imply either a less volatility in investment than the market, or a volatile portfolio whose price changes are not closely linked to the industry.Beta is relevant because it calculates the risk of a diversification-free investment.
Answer:
a. rises but real GDP per person falls
Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the total monetary value of output that is produced by an economy in a given period.
GDP increases as the income increases. This is because people have more money to spend on goods and services.
So if people are retiring they will earn pension that will be spent. This increases productivity of the economy.
However since the number of people working is reducing there will be a reduction in real GDP per person. Only few people are producing and output will be allocated to a large population many of whom are not working.
Answer:
It is convenient to make the changes.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $57.60 per unit.
Direct materials= $22
Direct labor= $24
Variable overhead= $11.00
Fixed overhead= $11.00.
New costs:
Direct material cost= 22*1.2= $26.4
Direct labor cost= 24*1.2= $28.8
<u>I suppose that the selling price will increase by $40.</u>
To determine whether the changes increase profit or not, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin per unit for both options:
Contribution margin= selling price - unitary variable cost
Actual Contribution margin:
Contribution margin= 57.6 - (22 - 24 - 11)= 0.6
New contribution margin:
Contribution margin= 97.60 - (26.4 - 28.8 - 11)= $31.4
Answer:
3,000
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Number of shares authorized = 15,000
Number if shares issued = 4,500
Number of shares repurchased = 1,500
Now,
Total shares outstanding = Shares issued - Shares repurchased
or
Total shares outstanding = 4500 - 1,500
or
Total shares outstanding = 3,000
Hence,
3,000 shares are outstanding at December 31
