Answer: 3.5%
Explanation:
Expected return if there is a Boom:
= (0.75 * 0.15) + (0.25 * 0.05)
= 0.1250
Expected return if things go Bust:
= (0.75 * -0.05) + (0.25 * 0.05)
= -0.025
Expected return of Portfolio = ∑(Probability of market state * expected return of market state)
= (0.4 * 0.1250) + (0.6 * -0.025)
= 3.5%
Answer:
$7.63
Explanation:
Worth of the stock is the present value of all the cash flows associated with the stock. Dividend is the only cash flow that a stock holder receives against its investment in the stocks. We need to calculate the present values of all the dividend payments.
Formula for PV of dividend
PV of Dividend = Dividend x ( 1 + r )^-n
1st year
PV of Dividend = $0.63 x ( 1 + 15% )^-1 = $0.55
2nd year
PV of Dividend = $0.68 x ( 1 + 15% )^-2 = $0.51
3rd year
PV of Dividend = $0.83 x ( 1 + 15% )^-3 = $0.55
4th year
PV of Dividend = $1.13 x ( 1 + 15% )^-4 = $0.65
After four years the dividend will grow at a constant rate of 4.1%, so we will use the following formula to calculate the present value
PV of Dividend = [ $1.13 x ( 1 + 4.1% ) / ( 15% - 4.1% ) ] x [ ( 1 + 15% )^-5 ]
PV of Dividend = $5.37
Value of Stock = $0.55 + $0.51 + $0.55 + $0.65 + $5.37 = $7.63

Explanation:
A hedge fund is made up of relatively liquid assets that are used to improve performance though short selling, leverage and derivatives.
There is use of complex trading techniques, risk management, and portfolio construction.
Usually a spike in returns occurs during December, this is called the Santa effect.
Managers receive an incentive fee when there is a good past performance of hedge funds.
So during December they tend to inflate the value of hedge funds.
This results in stronger valuation for low liquidity funds
