Answer: 16.33%

Explanation:

With the details given, the best method of Calculating the expected rate of return is the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM).

The formula is,

Er = Rf + b(Rm - Rf)

Where,

Er is expected return

Rf is the risk free rate

b is beta

Rm - Rf is the Market Premium

Er = 3.87% + 1.38(9.03)

= 3.87% + 12.4614%

= 16.33%

The model accounts for inflation by including the risk free rate which is already adjusted for inflation.

President Chris Zane mentions that employees' performance is not evaluated every six months or every year as in many organizatio
dsp73

Answer:

This question is incomplete, the options are missing. The options are the following:

a) Discuss failures of individuals of the company

b) Establish performance standards as a group

c) Measure, evaluate and take corrective action

d) Correct employees' actions by berating and celebrating

e) Cross-train employees

And the correct answer is the option C: measure, evaluate and take corrective action.

Explanation:

To begin with, when it comes to terms of control regarding the inside structure of an organization, the managers use different processes and techniques to take on that job of controlling the employes of the company in order to see how everything is going. In the case of Chris Zane, as he wants to do a control every week, then he is absolutely interesting in evaluating and measuring the improvements of every one inside the business so in that way he can take action in time to correct something if it is not going as planned. And that is the main reason why he would use a controlling process where he needs to have everything going as planned.

The management of Brinkley Corporation is interested in using simulation to estimate the profit per unit for a new product. The
OleMash [197]

Answer:

(a) : Profit = Selling price -purchase cost - labour cost -transportation cost

Profit per unit for the base-case = 45 - 11 - 24 - 3 = $ 7 / unit

Profit per unit for the worst-case = 45 - 12 - 25 - 5 = $ 3/ unit

Profit per unit for the best-case = 45 - 10 - 20 - 3 = $ 12 / unit

b) based on simulation model mean profit = 45 - 11 - 24 - 5 = $ 5/ unit and 45 - 10 - 25 - 3 = $ 7 / unit

(c) : Simulation approach will provide a distribution of the profit per unit values. By calculating percentage of simulation trials provide us profit in what-if scenario.

d)  As evaluated above, based on simulation model, minimum profit is $ 5/ unit. Hence management's belief of non-sustainability of project is right. Less than $ 5 / unit profit scenario is unacceptably low.

Explanation:

simulaton model for b is in the attachment below.
