Today Stock A is worth $25 and has 1000 shares outstanding. Stock B costs $30 and has 500 shares outstanding. Stock C is priced at $50 per share and has 1200 shares outstanding. If tomorrow Stock A is priced at $22, Stock B at $35, and Stock C is worth $48, what would the value-weighted index amount equal? (The index has a base period value of 100.)

What are some of the weaknesses behind risk-based capital standards? ( 250 words or less).

the answers need to be shown in a timeline as well as the answer in #5

=Future value*rate/((1+rate)^t-1)5. You want to buy a boat in 5 years and need to have $8,000 available to use as a down payment. How much would you need to save each year to reach that goal and your money will earn 9%? H

=Future value*rate/((1+rate)^t-1)

=8000*9%/(1.09^5-1)
=1336.739656

6. Refer to #5. Instead of saving each year, you want to save each month to reach your desired $8,000. Assume the same rate and term as above. Note: you cannot divide your answer to #5 by 12.

7. Sandy is buying a car and wants to get a loan of $8,000. If the rate is 6% and term is 5 years, what would the monthly payments be?

8. Diane is going to save $300 every 6 months (twice a year) for 10 years. If the rate is 8%, how much will she have?

9. Ken is going to save $300/month for 10 years, but will start TODAY. If the rate is 8%, how much will he have?   Note the difference in your answer to this problem from #8. Explain WHY is there a difference in your answers?

10. Uncle Guido wants to give you a gift. He tells you he will write a check to you of $1500 in 1 year, $2,600 in year 2 and $3,000 in year 3.   How much does Guido have to set aside now in order to have sufficient funds to write all of those checks? Assume a 10% rate.

11. You get a loan of $100,000 for 10 year term. If the payments are $1,801.85/month, what is the interest rate on this loan (remember all rates are always quoted as annual figures)? Hint: set up timeline and determine which type of TVM problem it resembles. Then solve.

12. Carla will give $200 to you every three months for 10 years (4x per year). At year 10 she will also give $10,000 to you. What amount of money must be available in her bank account in order for her to have enough money to meet her promise. The rate is 12%. Hint: this problem is a combination of 2 types of TVM problems. Your final answer is the sum of the two.

13. Brett has contract that will pay him $10,000 at the end of 5 years. Brett wants money now and not in 5 years, so he is willing to have contract signed over to you (so you would receive that money) if you give him some money today. If you require a 12% interest rate on money you lend to friends. What is the maximum amount you would you be willing to pay for this contract?

How does the creation of a portfolio reduce risk? What type of assets should be included in a diverse portfolio? Why should they be included?

How important is it that an organization have an exclusive right to exercise a real option? That is, can we really say that an option being considered has value if competitors may exercise it also?

Consider a project to supply 106 million postage stamps per year to the U.S. Postal Service for the next five years. You have an idle parcel of land available that cost $1,735,000 five years ago; if the land were sold today, it would net you $1,810,000 aftertax. The land can be sold for $1,754,000 after taxes in five years. You will need to install $5.65 million in new manufacturing plant and equipment to actually produce the stamps; this plant and equipment will be depreciated straight-line to zero over the project’s five-year life. The equipment can be sold for $715,000 at the end of the project. You will also need $605,000 in initial net working capital for the project, and an additional investment of $56,000 in every year thereafter. Your production costs are .54 cents per stamp, and you have fixed costs of $1,110,000 per year. If your tax rate is 22 percent and your required return on this project is 8 percent, what bid price should you submit on the contract? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 5 decimal places, e.g., 32.16161.)

Home Place​ Hotels, Inc., is entering into a​ 3-year remodeling and expansion project. The construction will have a limiting effect on earnings during that​ time, but when it is​ complete, it should allow the company to enjoy much improved growth in earnings and dividends.
