the first thing most people would say is, "why not the one savings thats at 4.5%?" so to make things easy, let's say it is IMPOSSIBLE to have just the one at 4.5%.

so let's say for example you have $200,000. you are presented with a choice out of two options,

A] $100,000 @ 4.5% APY interest, and the other $100,000 @ 4.3% APY interest.

or
B] all $200,000 @ 4.3% APY interest.

the interest is compounded daily, paid monthly, and the rate does not change.
which of these values will pay more money over the long haul, having all the money compounded at a lower rate, or having half of the money compounded at a higher rate?

if you show the math you'll get the best answer.

The CFO of Hankcock, Al Dipta, is trying to estimate the cost of equity of his company using the CAPM, for which he needs an estimate of the beta of the company's stock. He could use the estimate published in Value Line, but he would prefer to come up with an estimate of his own, as he feels he could get a more accurate estimate of the beta of a small airline such as his by regressing the company's historical returns on the returns on a select group of transportation stocks rather on a broad portfolio of stocks as done by Value Line analysts? Is this a good thing to do? why or why not?

Can someone help me to know the basics of the question?

An individual plans to invest in Stock A and Stock B. The expected returns are 12% and 18% for Stock A and Stock B respectively. The standard deviations are 6% and 12% for Stock A and Stock B. The correlation between A and B is .15. Find the expected return and the standard deviation of a portfolio with 80% of the investor's funds in Stock A.

Does anyone have a clue on how to do this? Can someone help?

Thanks

I would like to become an investor, and am looking for something simple to get into. I have been told that commodities are one of the easiest methods to begin, yet I know no one doing so. Any advice, help, tips, or detours to something a little more simple will do for me as I plan to follow some through the next year and begin investing around the end of next year or the beginning of 2009

I want to tidy up my finances. I have been contributing into my existing pension scheme for about seven years now, but before that (in previous employments) I had two other schemes.

I only have a vague understanding of the rules here and this is what I am hoping someone can help me with. Can I apply to have the money that's in these other funds transferred to my current fund? If so, how do I do it? Or is it a bad idea and I should leave everything where it is? (Why?)

One is a "Group Reflex Personal Pension Plan" with Scottish Equitable, the other is a "Group Money Purchase Scheme" with Scottish Widows.

I left both jobs within 6-12 months of starting to make contributions, and my salary wasn't up to much back then either, so we are not talking about massive amounts here - but it was my money and I paid it in, and I don't want to risk forgetting about it or losing it because I've left it too long.

Thanks!

Is it possible to invest in oil? Not in the oil companies, but in oil itself? Can I buy barrels of oil, say when a barrel costs $50 and sell it again when the price of oil peaks? I am not talking about really buying 55 gallon drums of the stuff and storing them in my basement. I am talking about "shares" of oil. Like shares of stock. You can invest in gold and silver right? Where can I invest in oil?
