Answer:

Standard deviation = 47.69% (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Portfolio of Apple stock w1 = 25% = 0.25

Portfolio of Tesla stock w2 = 75% = 0.75

Standard deviation return Apple σ1 = 35% = 0.35

Standard deviation return Tesla σ2 = 60% = 0.60

Correlation coefficient ρ12 = 0.22

Find:

Standard deviation

Computation:

Standard deviation = √w1²σ1² + w2²σ2² + 2w1σ1w2σ2ρ12

Standard deviation = 0.4769

Standard deviation = 47.69% (Approx)

If a player chooses a mixed strategy in a Nash equilibrium, this implies that the payoff from using that mixed strategy is the s
son4ous [18]

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

The concept of "Nash equilibrium" is been by economist and also by "gamers" in game theory. Nash equilibrium is so good for making decisions and the determination of strategies.

In playing this game, the players or participants can use the pure strategy or the mixed strategy. The mixed strategy is the use of different strategies randomly.

"If a player chooses a mixed strategy in a Nash equilibrium, this implies that the payoff from using that mixed strategy is the same as the payoff from using any of the pure strategies in it".

The statement given above is FALSE because the PAYOFF WILL INCREASE IF WE ARE TO PLAY A MIXED STRATEGY.

For instance if we have a head of 1 and -1, and a tail of -1 and 1, the payoff for pure strategy is likely one or minus one but for a mixed strategy it could be zero.

Turnbull Co. has a target capital structure of 58% debt, 6% preferred stock, and 36% common equity. It has a before-tax cost of
Elis [28]

Answer:

Turnbull's weighted average cost of capital will be higher by 0.65% if it has to raise additional common equity capital.

Explanation:

By combining the WACC formula and retained earnings cost of capital,we will arrive at;

WACC = Debt W × after tax cost of debt + Preferred stock weight × cost of capital + Equity W × Cost of capital

= 58% × 4.92% + 6% × 9.3% + 36% × 12.4%

= 2.85% + 0.56% + 4.46%

= 7.87%

Also, using the same WACC formula and using common equity cost of capital, , we will arrive at the below;

WACC = Debt W × after tax cost of debt + preferred stock weight × cost of capital + Equity W × cost of capital

= 58% × 4.92% + 6% × 9.3% + 36% × 14.2%

= 2.85% + 0.56% + 5.11%

= 8.52%

Therefore, increase cost using common equity over retained earnings is [ 8.52% - 7.87%]

= 0.65%

N.B we arrived at 4.92% for after tax by;

Pre tax 8.2%

Current tax rate 40%

= Pre tax × ( 1 - cost of debt)

= 8.2% × ( 1 - 40%)

= 8.2% × 0.6%

= 4.92%

kipiarov [429]
Given that Lucky won $1000000 and has an option of receiving $50000 p.a for 30 years, the total amount received after 30 years in case he goes for option 2 will be:
amount=(yearly payment)+(number of years)
=(50000)×(30)
=$1,500,000
This implies that the second option is best choice. Given the information, we shall conclude that the best thing to do is to calculate the present value of the annuity payments.
