Answer:
1. quickly describe large amounts of data
2. the stock is worth 15% more at the end of the year than at the beginning
3. 9.2%
Explanation:
Descriptive statistics helps to quickly describe large amounts of data because it simply involves using certain measurement tools to describe the data seen such that patterns emerge that will help in analyzing the data. Examples include, frequency tables and measures of variation like range and standard deviation.
When a stock has a 15% return, it means that the owner is getting 15% more than the amount that the stock cost them therefore showing that the stock is worth 15% more at the end of the year than at the beginning.
The return on the stock is;
= (4.75 - 4.35) / 4.35
= 9.2%
Answer: ER(P) = ERX(WX) + ERY(WY)
16 = 13(1-WY) + 9(WY)
16 = 13 - 13WY + 9WY
16 = 13 - 4WY
4WY = 13-16
4WY = -3
WY = -3/4
WY = -0.75
WX = 1 - WY
WX = 1 - (-0.75)
WX = 1 + 0.75
WX = 1.75
The amount to be invested in stock Y = -0.75 x $106,000
= -$79,500
The Beta of the portfolio could be calculated using the formula:
BP = BX(WX) + BY(WY)
BP = 1.14(1.75) + 0.84(-0.75)
BP = 1.995 - 0.63
BP = 1.365
Explanation: The expected return of the portfolio is equal to expected return of stock X multiplied by the weight of stock X plus the expected return of stock Y multiplied by weight of security Y. The weight of security Y is -0.75. The weight of security X is equal to 1 - weight of security Y. Thus, the weight of security X is 1.75 since the weight of security Y is negative. The amount to be invested in security Y is -0.75 x $106,000, which is equal to -$79,500
The Beta of the portfolio equals Beta of stock X multiplied by weight of stock X plus the Beta of stock Y multiplied by weight of stock Y. The weights of the two stocks have been obtained earlier. Therefore, the Beta of the portfolio is 1.365.
