Answer:

HPR = holding period Return is 20%

Explanation:

  • Given original Investment = $100
  • Short sale proceeds for 1 share = $100
  • Investment made of $100 + short sale proceeds of $100 at 5% YTM.
  • So Maturity Value = Investment x (1+YTM)^number of years  
  • = 200 x (1 + 0.05)^1 = 210  

 

  • Therefore, In order to cover Short sale of 1 share, we will have to buy 1 share at a closing value of $90  
  • As such, holding period Return = (Investment proceeds from ZCB - Buying price of stock - Investment amount) / Investment Amount  
  • = (210 - 90 - 100) / 100 = 0.2 or 20%  

 

  • Hence, HPR = holding period Return is 20%

Why is it critically important to develop and implement sustainable management approaches for grand banks fisheries?
olganol [36]
The Atlantic Periphery is still particularly subordinate financially on its marine assets, and the locale is prime natural surroundings for some districts of fish. Nonetheless, many years of overfishing have put numerous monetarily imperative species on the edge of getting to be noticeably wiped out. In the event that there is to be reasonable angling of these species, later on, they should be permitted to recuperate.
