A person purchases a company for $50,000 now. This company will lose $2,200 each year the first four years. At the end of the fourth year, he/she will invest additional $16,000 in the company which will result in a profit of $11,000 each year from the fifth year through the fourteenth year. At the end of 15 years, the company can be sold for $66,000. Compounding is annual. (a) Determine the IRR. (b) Calculate the future worth if MARR = 12%. (c) Calculate the ERR when = 10%.

There is an estimated weekly utilization (volume) of 30 scans. Each scan will cost the hospital $35 in supplies. The system is expected to operate for $50 weeks per year. Associated annual labor costs for purchasing the CT scan machine is an estimated $100,000. Maintenance costs are estimated to be $80,000, and the machine is expected to be in operation for a period of 5 years. The machine may sell for approximately $500,000 salvage value. Daisy Hill has an 8% corporate cost of capital, and inflation is expected to average 3% over the period.

In table 1.1 below, information on three stocks (X, Y and Z) in
the next period is stated. The stocks are traded on a financial
market, where the usual assumptions for a normal market are
satisfied. It is assumed, that a risk-free asset is traded on the
financial market as well, which has a return of 5% (rf) in the next
period.
Problem: Determine the tangent portfolio of the three stocks (i.e.
determine the weights that the three stocks have in the
portfolio)
Hint 1: Recall, that the tangency portfolio (T) is given as the
portfolio that has the largest Sharpe Ratio. To find T, you
therefore have to write up the expression for Sharpe Ratio and
maximize this in Excel or another program.
Hint 2: Recall (cf. formula 11.11), that the variance of a
portfolio’s return is given by: Var( RP ~ )= ∑= N i 1 ∑= N j 1
xixjCov( ir ~ , j r ~ ) Where xi and xj denotes de respective
portfolio weights, i,j = 1,2...N.
Stock | Std. Deviation Of the return | Expected return | Correlation with return on Y | Correlation with return on Z |
X | 0,2 | 0,15 | 0,8 | -0,1 |
Y | 0,3 | 0,1 | 1 | 0,2 |
Z | 0,25 | 0,12 | 0,2 | 1 |
R(f) | 5% | |||
