Answer:

Their underlying asset beta is closest to is 1.08

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

Debt is given as $78 billion

Equity is given as $142 billion

equity beta given as 1.68

Therefore, in order to calculate the underlying asset beta we would have to use the formula of the the equity beta for a levered firm as follows:

betaE =beta A [1 + (Debt / Equity)]

1.68 = \beta A [1 + ($78 B/ $142 B)]

1.68 = \beta A [1 + 0.5493]

betaA = 1.68 / 1.5493

betaA = 1.08

Their underlying asset beta is closest to is 1.08

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

$34.8

Explanation:

Profits = sales - costs( variable costs +fixed costs)

In this case : total sales will be price $0.75 x units sold X= 0.75X

Variable costs : =$10 x units sold= $10x

Fixed cost remain $25 as they are not affected by quantity.

profits for the Week

P= (0.75x- 0.10x)-$25

Profit for the week with units sold as 92: x = 92

p= ( {0.75x92} - {0.10x92} )- $25

P= $69 - $9.2- $25

P=$59.8- $25

   =$34.8

Banks that offer low interest rates to people with good credit
krek1111 [17]

The answer is: B. sacrifice profits for less risk.

Interest rates influence the amount of money that the borrower had to give back to the bank and  Higher interest rate would give higher profit for the bank.

When bank people give low interest rates for people with good credit, the number of revenue that bank would make from giving the loan would decrease. But people with good credit has high likelihood of returning the money they borrow, which mean that there is less risk for the bank.
