Answer:

A) 964,286

B) 14

C) 750,000

Explanation:

The portfolios expected return = (0.5 x $70,000) + (0.5 x $200,000) = $35,000 + $100,000 = $135,000

If the risk free investment yields 6% per year, and you require a risk premium of 8%, then the total interest rate that the portfolio yields must be 6% + 8% = 14%

you will be willing to pay: $135,000 / 14% = $964,286 for the portfolio

if the risk premium increase by 4%, then the price of the portfolio will decrease to: $135,000 / 18% = $750,000

Marina CMI [18]

Answer: Database does not need to be changed if a change is made to an application

Explanation:

Data base management is a software that is created to retrieve data, manipulate data and manage the data in its data base. Database management allows its users create their own database through the manipulation of data to yield specific results. Since the data is different from the application, any changes in the database application won't have a bearing on the data already in the database.
