Session Details Module2 Chapter(s)1, 2, 3 LOs2-3 Calculate a weighted average return. Also calculate the standard deviation and mean return of a single asset, and understand how the range of returns is calculated within one, two, and three standard deviations. 2-4 Calculate coefficient of variation, and understand its application. 2-8 Calculate required return using the capital asset pricing model (CAPM), and understand its application. 3-2

Risk Standard deviation: variability Beta: volatility Total Risk Standard Deviation (Variability) Systematic Risk Beta (Volatility) Unsystematic Risk 3-3

Standard Deviation Mean Return 10% +2 σ +1 σ -1 σ +3 σ-2 σ -3 σ M (mean/average return) = 10% σ (standard deviation) = 15% (Normal Distribution) 25%40% 55% - 5%- 20% - 35% 68% of returns 95% of returns 99% of returns 2-4

Standard Deviation For normally distributed returns, calculate the standard deviation range, add and subtract the standard deviation amount from the mean return. Example: Mean return of 10%, Std deviation of 15% One standard deviation: = +25, and 10 – 15 = – 5 Two standard deviations: = +40, and – 5 – 15 = – 20 Three standard deviations: +55 to

Standard Deviation Concepts Normal distribution Skewness (security returns are positively skewed) Kurtosis Leptokurtic Platykurtic 3-6

Standard Deviation Question Scorpio Inc. has a mean return of 19%, and a standard deviation of 25. What is the probability that the stock will have a return greater than 19% if the returns are normally distributed? 3-7

Standard Deviation Question Libra Inc. has a mean return of 11%, and a standard deviation of 9. Assuming the returns are normally distributed, what is the probability that the stock will have a return greater than 20%? 3-8

Standard Deviation of a Single Asset Use the calculator! 3-9

Calculating Standard Deviation Single Asset (2) Formula #4 on diagram Calculation is simple on the 10BII+ or 12C Assume Acme Industries has the following annual returns: + 15% + 22% - 7% + 10% What is the standard deviation and mean return? 3-10

Calculating Standard Deviation Single Asset (2) Keystrokes are: 1, SHIFT, P/YR 15, ∑+ 22, ∑+ 7, +/-, ∑+ 10, ∑+ SHIFT, 8 (g, “.” on 12C) Answer = For the mean return the keystrokes would be: SHIFT, 7 (g, “0” on 12C) Answer = 10% 3-11

Coefficient of Variation Risk per unit of return 3-12

Coefficient of Variation Example CV(A) = 6%/10% = 0.60 CV(B) = 9%/12% = 0.75 B has a higher mean, but also has a higher CV, which means you take higher risk per unit of return. Remember that you can easily calculate both standard deviation and mean return for a single asset with your financial calculator, as we did previously. Asset AAsset B Std Dev.6%9% Mean.10%12% 3-13

Beta Coefficients Measures the volatility of a stock (or portfolio) relative to the market (a benchmark); so, the greater the correlation, the more accurate beta becomes. Since R-squared measures systematic risk, it can be used to determine beta reliability; generally you are looking for an R-squared of 70 or higher in order for beta to be considered reliable. β 3-14

Beta Beta of 1 means the asset has the same volatility as the benchmark. What would be the approximate price movement of the Acme Fund if it has a beta of.85, and the benchmark it is being compared to has a return of 15%? Answer: 15% x.85 = 12.75% What if Acme’s beta were 1.25? Answer: 15% x 1.25 = 18.75% 3-15

Weighted Average Using Beta What is the weighted beta of the following portfolio? $40,000 in AAA, beta of 1.2 $20,000 in TTT, beta of 0.9 $15,000 in ZZZ, beta of 0.8 Shortcut on 10BII+ calculator: 1.2, INPUT (ENTER on 12C) 40,000, ∑+.9, INPUT 20,000, ∑+.8, INPUT 15,000, ∑+ SHIFT, 6 (g, 6 on 12C) Answer =

The Capital Asset Pricing Model CAPM also has a micro component that looks at individual stock returns – the Security Market Line – SML This micro component is also used to help value stocks 3-17

The Capital Asset Pricing Model The risk-free rate is 3.5%, and the market’s expected return is 8%. Your stock has a beta of 1.1. What is the required return? r = (8.0 – 3.5)1.1 r = r = 8.45 What is the market risk premium? 4.5% (8.0 – 3.5) 3-18

Required Return Calculations What is the required return for the following securities? The risk-free rate is 4%, and the market return is 8%. FundBeta Required Return Triad0.9 Triangle1.1 Trapeze2.0 Tango1.4 Tangent

Question 2 Triad Industries has a mean return for the past five years of 12%, with a standard deviation of 9%. Assuming the returns are evenly distributed, what is the probability that Triad will have a return greater than 21%? a.3% b.12% c.16% d.24% 3-21

Question 3 Your client has narrowed his choice down to the following three mutual funds, and wants your opinion concerning which one to choose based on the fund that will provide the lowest amount of risk per unit of return. Which fund should your client choose? a.Fund ABC b.Fund DDD c.Fund EFG Fund Mean ReturnStandard Deviation ABC8%12 DDD10%14 EFG7%

Question 4 A mutual fund you are considering has a beta of 0.75, a standard deviation of 11, a correlation coefficient of.90 with the Russell 2000, an R- squared of.65 with the S&P 500, and an expected return of 12%. Which one of the following is the fund’s coefficient of variation? a..92 b.1.09 c.1.15 d
