Answer:

Total yield or rate of return is 0.36 or 36%

Explanation:

To calculate rate of return which is also the total yield on the stock, we will use the following formula,

Total Yield = (D + C) / P0

Where,

  • D represents dividends paid by the stock during the year
  • C is the capital appreciation(pr depreciation) or rise(or fall) in the price of the stock as compared to the purchase price
  • P0 is the purchase price or price in Year 0

Total dividends for the year = 1.5 * 4 = $6

C = 130 - 100 = $30

Total Yield = (6 + 30) / 100

Total yield = 0.36 or 36%

Based on current dividend yields and expected capital gains, the expected rates of return on portfolios A and B are 9.1% and 12.
podryga [215]

Answer:

A.) ALPHA

Portfolio A = 8.5%

Portflio B = 13.5%

B.) Sharpe measure

Portfolio A = 0.1519

Portflio B = 0.1479

Explanation:

T- bill rate (Rf) =5%

S&P 500 index ( Rm) = 10%

Portfolio A;

Expected rate of return = 9.1%

Beta (B) = 0.7

Standard deviation (s) = 27%

Portfolio B;

Expected rate of return = 12.1%

Beta (B) = 1.7

Standard deviation = 48%

Required rate of return for both portfolios;

Rf + B × (Rm - Rf)

Portfolio A :

5% + 0.7 ×(10% - 5%) = 5% + 0.7 × (5%)

5% + 3.5% = 8.5%

Portfolio B :

5% + 1.7 ×(10% - 5%) = 5% + 1.7 × (5%)

5% + 8.5% = 13.5%

A) Alpha(A) of Portfolio A and B ;

A = Expected return - Required return

Alpha of portfolio A :

9.1% - 8.5% = 0.6%

Alpha of Portfolio B:

12.1% - 13.5% = - 1.4%

B.) Sharpe measure for portfolio A and B;

Sharpe ratio = (Expected rate of return - Rf) / s

Portfolio A = (9.1% - 5%)/27% = 0.1519

Portfolio B = (12.1% - 5%)/48% = 0.1479

I will choose Portfolio A
