Answer:

D) Beta .98 expected return .107

Explanation:

In CAPM (Capital Asset Pricing Model), expected return = risk-free rate + Beta * market risk premium = 3.4% + Beta * 7.4%

We try every choice consecutively

A) Beta .87  expected return .096

⇒ expected return = 3.4% + 0.87 * 7.4% = 0.098

A is wrong

B) Beta 1.09   expected return .102

⇒ expected return = 3.4% + 1.09 * 7.4% = 0.1147

B is wrong

C) Beta 1.62 expected return .146

⇒ expected return = 3.4% + 1.62 * 7.4% = 0.154

C is wrong

D) Beta .98 expected return .107

⇒  expected return = 3.4% + 0.98 * 7.4% = 0.107

D is TRUE

E) Beta 1.16   expected return .139

⇒ expected return = 3.4% + 1.16* 7.4% = 0.12

E is wrong

The computation of computer cost allocated to Division B is shown below:-

Computer cost allocated to Division B = Computer service cost × Computer time of Division B ÷ Total computer time.

= $260,000 × 220 ÷ (200 + 220)

= $260,000 × 220 ÷ 420

= $260,000 × 0.5238

= ($5 billion x 20%) + ($45 billion x 70%) + ($100 billion x 10%) = $1 billion + $31.5 billion + $10 billion = $42.5 billion

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The automotive company has run into bribery and corruption, one of the most common ethical challenges businesses faced today as they expand internationally.

Explanation:

As with the given scenario above, this company had three potential countries in which to expand their business of building a factory. These countries asked for an amount of extra kickbacks in exchange for helping the company run their business with ease.

However, in the business world, <em>kickbacks</em> are considered an illegal form of payment (or bribe) that one may gave as a compensation to an individual or organization with a considerable superiority and great influence in exchange for an improper advantageous treatment or service.

Such misappropriation of money violates the state or federal laws, which makes it a form of corruption.

Now, the automotive company from the given scenario had faced a dilemma whether to accept the bribe or not. It's a challenge for them as their decision might positively or negatively affect their business expansion.
