There are two well–diversified portfolios in the economy, portfolio A and portfolio B. Portfolio A has beta of 1.5 and expected return of 14%, while portfolio B has beta 0.9 and expected return of 11.4%. If the expected return on the market is 12% and risk–free rate is 6%, is there an arbitrage opportunity? If so, show your arbitrage strategy.

XYZ corp. is considering investing in a new machine. The new machine cost will $ 10,000 installed. Depreciation expense on the new machine will be $1000 per year for the next five years. At the end of the fifth year XYZ expects to sell the machine for $6000. XYZ will also sell its old machine today that has a book value of $3000 for $3000. The old machine has depreciation expense of $600 per year. Additionally, XYZ Corp expects that the new machine will increase its EBIT by $2000 in each of the next five years. Assuming that XYZ’s marginal tax rate is 21% and the projects WACC is 15%, What is the projects NPV? Round your final answer to two decimals.

Given the year end prices of the following stocks, estimate the standard deviation of the returns of a portfolio of 30% AAA and 70% BBB. Enter your answer as a percent without the % sign. Round your final answer to two decimals.

Consider about the working conditions and regulatory environment in clothing factories in Bangladesh, in which many economists warn about quick fixes for wages and the imposition of U.S. safety standards on foreign factories. They offer the following figures to illustrate that the issue of labor conditions in other countries is complex. In Bangladesh, clothing factories get about $6.75 per shirt. These are the factory costs:

1. $4.75 for the fabric and thread
2. $1.00 for the shirt's labels
3. $0.38 wage costs for each shirt (workers earn $70 to $80 a month)
4. $0.15 per shirt for laundering

Hence, That leaves $0.47 per shirt for facilities, shipment, marketing, and perhaps the interest on loans. Furthermore, the cost of living in Bangladesh is $40 per month for rent, and food per adult is $13 per month. Milk for a child is $5 per month. Those who work in the factories are generally the main wage earners in their families because no other jobs pay as well.

Base of the case above, answer the following questions:

1. Given this analysis, where do you see some fixes for the safety and wage issues?
2. What needs to be done besides instituting codes of ethics and factory and labor standards?
3. Assume that you are a manager for a clothing firm in the United States and you are being sent to Bangladesh to select a new manufacturer for your clothing lines. Discuss some of the issues that will affect your decisions about choosing a new facility to work with.

1. Is there a difference between a leader and a manager and if so, what is it?

2. Define efficiency and effectiveness.

Locate and retrieve the most current ranking of the best global brands (include your list) and identify the criteria used in compiling this list (provide cite and the source’s ranking criteria).

Which countries appear to dominate the top 100 global brands list? Why do you think this is the case? Look at which sectors appear to dominate the list, and try to identify the reasons.

Prepare a short paper identifying the countries that possess the most global brands and the potential reasons for the success of these brands. To complete this exercise, you must look at numerous cultural and diversity factors. Discern what allows certain companies to succeed. The answer must consider in numerous country factors, such as education system, literacy rate, poverty, rights of women, political system, corruption, culture, attitudes toward work, legal systems, currency fluctuations, and any other factors that we have discussed in this course that you think contributes to certain companies and/or countries ability to provide/promote successful enterprises. Please consider the interplay of the variables together.
