Answer:
(a) $0 (b) 0% (c) 50% (d) -40% (e) 0.444 and 0.556 (f) -0.05
Explanation:
(a) Profit (in $) = (increase in price per share of Harley-Davidson * number of Harley-Davidson shares held) - (decrease in price per share of Yahoo * number of Yahoo shares held)
= $90 - $60 = $30 increase in Harley Davidson and $25 - $15 =$10 decrease in Yahoo
= ($30*100) - ($10*300) = $0
(b) return on portfolio = return/capital invested * 100 = $0/($60 * 100 + $25 * 300) = $0/$13500 = 0%
(c) return on investment in Harley = return/capital invested in Harley * 100 = $30*100/$60*1000 = $3000/$6000 = 50%
(d) return on investment in Yahoo = return/capital invested in Yahoo * 100 = -$10*300/$25*300 = -$3000/$7500 = - 40% (negative rate of return)
(e) Weighting at the beginning of year (in decimals)
Harley Davidson = $60 * 100 units/ total invested ($60 * 100 + $25 * 300)
= $6000/$13500 = 0.444
Yahoo = $25 * 300 units/ total invested
= $7500/$13500 = 0.556
(f) realized returns (as a decimal) of the portfolio = 0.444*50% + 0.556*-40%
= -0.0493728
= - 0.05 (to decimal places)
