      [removed] An investor can eliminate virtually all market risk if he or she holds a very large and well diversified portfolio of stocks.
      [removed] The higher the correlation between the stocks in a portfolio, the lower the risk inherent in the portfolio.
      [removed] It is impossible to have a situation where the market risk of a single stock is less than that of a portfolio that includes the stock.
      [removed] An investor can eliminate virtually all diversifiable risk if he or she holds a very large, well-diversified, portfolio of stocks.

      [removed] The riskiness of the portfolio is less than the riskiness of each of the stocks if they were held in isolation.
      [removed] The riskiness of the portfolio is greater than the riskiness of one or two of the stocks.
      [removed] The beta of the portfolio is less than the betas of each of the individual stocks.
      [removed] The beta of the portfolio is greater than the beta of one or two of the individual stocks’ betas.

      [removed] When held in isolation, Stock A has greater risk than Stock B.
      [removed] Stock B must be a more desirable addition to a portfolio than Stock A.
      [removed] Stock A must be a more desirable addition to a portfolio than Stock B.
      [removed] The expected return on Stock A should be greater than that on Stock B.

      [removed] Sometimes a security or project does not have a past history which can be used as a basis for calculating beta.
      [removed] Sometimes, during a period when the company is undergoing a change such as toward more leverage, or riskier assets, the calculated beta will be drastically different than the “true” or “expected future” beta.
      [removed] The beta of “the market,” can change over time, sometimes drastically.
      [removed] Sometimes the past data used to calculate beta do not reflect the likely risk of the firm for the future because conditions have changed.

      [removed] One defect of the IRR method versus the NPV is that the IRR does not take account of cash flows over a project’s full life.
      [removed] One defect of the IRR method versus the NPV is that the IRR does not take account of the time value of money.
      [removed] One defect of the IRR method versus the NPV is that the IRR does not take account of the cost of capital.
      [removed] One defect of the IRR method versus the NPV is that the IRR does not take proper account of differences in the sizes of projects.

      [removed] The longer a project’s payback period, the more desirable the project is normally considered to be by this criterion.
      [removed] One drawback of the regular payback for evaluating projects is that this method does not properly account for the time value of money.
      [removed] If a project’s payback is positive, then the project should be rejected because it must have a negative NPV.
      [removed] The regular payback ignores cash flows beyond the payback period, but the discounted payback method overcomes this problem.

      [removed] The regular payback method recognizes all cash flows over a project’s life.
      [removed] The discounted payback method recognizes all cash flows over a project’s life, and it also adjusts these cash flows to account for the time value of money.
      [removed] The regular payback method was, years ago, widely used, but virtually no companies even calculate the payback today.
      [removed] The regular payback is useful as an indicator of a project’s liquidity because it gives managers an idea of how long it will take to recover the funds invested in a project.
