Suppose two factors are identified for the U. S. economy: the growth rate of industrial production, IP, and the inflation rate, IR. IP is expected to be 4% and IR 6%. A stock with a beta of 1 on IP and 0.7 on IT currently is expected to provide a rate of return of 12%. If industrial production actually grows by 5%, while the inflation rate turns out to be 8%, what will be your expected rate of return on the stock, given the new information about the industrial production rate and the inflation rate

Pestiferous manufacturing produces a chemical pesticide and uses process costing. there are three processing departmentslong dash​mixing, ​refining, and packaging. on january​ 1, the first departmentlong dashmixinglong dashhad no beginning inventory. during​ january, 48,000 fl. oz. of chemicals were started in production. of​ these, 40,000 fl. oz. were​ completed, and​ 8,000 fl. oz. remained in process. in the mixing​ department, all direct materials are added at the beginning of the production​ process, and conversion costs are applied evenly throughout the process. at the end of​ january, the equivalent unit data for the mixing department were as​ follows: units equivalent units equivalent units units to be accounted for direct materials costs conversion costs completed and transferred out ​40,000 ​40,000 ​40,000 ending​ work-in-process* ​8,000 ​8,000 ​3,520 ​48,000 ​48,000 ​43,520 ​* percent complete for conversion​ costs: 44% in addition to the​ above, the cost per equivalent unit were​ $1.35 for direct materials and​ $5.30 for conversion costs. using this​ data, calculate the full cost of the ending wip balance in the mixing department. the​ weighted-average method is used.
