Explanation:

The information that we need is shown in both the table and the graph. Step 1 - Calculate the value of the Cash held within each of the Funds in the question Cash value = total value x cash % UK (Cash) = 55.6 x 10% = £5.56 million See table below: Cash UK £5.56 million Far Eastern £7.86 million Emerging Markets £3.89 million Step 2 - Calculate the value of the Bonds held within each of the Funds in the question Bonds value = total value x bonds % UK (Bonds) = 55.6 x 20% = £11.12 million See table below: Bond UK £11.12 million Far Eastern £3.41 million Emerging Markets £11.67 million Thus the correct answer is (B), Emerging Markets (Cash); Far Eastern (Bonds)

Explanation:

Tip: Note that just from looking at the graph and table we know the overall US fund is smaller than the UK fund and the smallest fraction within the US find (10% to Derivatives) is not larger than the smallest fraction within the UK fund. So we can instantly say the smallest fraction is Derivatives in the US fund. As it happens there is only one multiple choice with this as an option so we know (E) is the correct answer. In full, the solution is as follows. The information that we need is shown in both the graph and the table. Calculate the value of each component of each equity fund, using this formula: Component value = Total value x Equity fund component % UK Fund (Cash) = 55.6 x 10% = 5.56 (£million) See table below for other component values: Component value (£million) Cash Bonds Derivatives Shares UK 5.56 11.12 16.68 22.24 US 4.86 3.65 2.43 13.37 Thus the correct answer is (E), lowest is US Fund (Derivatives); highest is UK Fund (Shares)

Explanation:

The information that we need is shown in the graph. Calculate the Shares: Bonds ratios for each equity fund Bonds Shares UK 20 40 US 15 55 European 7 70 Far Eastern 13 30 Emerging Markets 30 50 The UK fund has exactly double the number of Shares compared to Bonds. Only the Emerging Markets has less than double the number of Shares compared to Bonds. Thus the correct answer is (C) Emerging Markets

Explanation:

Calculate the average for each maintenance cost: Insurance = 192.2 Servicing = 1,000 Rent = 295 Utilities = 185.8 Administration = 589 Misc = 450 Thus the correct answer is (A), Servicing, Administration, Misc., Rent, Insurance,Utilities

Explanation:

Step 1 - For the Glasgow plant, calculate the total costs 195 + 875 + 300 + 189 + 720 + 425 = 2,704 Step 2 - For the Glasgow plant, calculate each cost as a % of the total cost Insurance = 100% x 195/2,704 = 7% Servicing = 100% x 875/2,704 = 32% Rent = 100% x 300/2,704 = 11% Utilities = 100% x 189/2,704 = 7% Administration = 100% x 720/2,704 =27% Misc = 100% x 425/2,704 = 16% Tip: to save time, you can stop after you’ve calculated 7% for Insurance and just scan across the row to see if any other costs are close to £195. You will see that Utilities are. Thus the correct answer is (E), Insurance and Utilities
