Calculate the Beta of a stock that has annual returns of 18%, -10%, 16%, while the market (X-variable) has corresponding annual returns of 20%, -5%, 10% during each of these three years. (Hint: Your calculator should generate an average value of 8% for the stock = Y, if not re-check your data register).

The following table reports the percentage of stocks in a portfolio for nine quarters: a. Construct a time series plot. What type of pattern exists in the data? b. Use trial and error to find a value of the exponential smoothing coefficient that results in a relatively small MSE. c. Using the exponential smoothing model you developed in part (b), what is the forecast of the percentage of stocks in a typical portfolio for the second quarter of year 3?
SECURITY MARKET LINE You are given the following historical data on market returns, r 8A-2 and the returns on Stocks A and B, r, and rp: M A Year M 1 29.00% 29.00% 20.00% 15.20 15.20 13.10 (10.00) (10.00) 0.50 4 3.30 3.30 7.15 23.00 23.00 17.00 6. 31.70 31.70 21.35
You want to estimate the monthly alpha and beta of AXON stock, using the index model. Suppose AXON has a beta of 0.95 and a monthly alpha of 0.5 (representing half a percent). If you set up the regression model correctly, the index model equation should be (remember in index model formulas, we use R instead of r to denote excess returns): Select an answer and submit. For keyboard navigation, use the up/down arrow keys to select an answer. b с d Rmarket = Rmarket = 0.5 x Rstock +0.95 Raxon 0.95 x Rstock +0.5 = 0.5 x Rmarket +0.95 Raxon = 0.95 x Rmarket +0.5
Suppose that the annual return for particular stock follows the same distribution every year, and that the return for any given year is independent of the returns for any prior years. Based on an analysis of the stock's annual returns over an 12 year period, it is determined that the 95% confidence interval for the stock's expected annual return is given by (-0.1724, 0.2861). Find the volatility of the stock. Use the approximation formula from Berk and DeMarzo. 38.52% 40.90% 42.09% 37.32% 39.71%
A stock recently has been estimated to have a beta of 1.24:a. What will a beta book compute as the “adjusted beta” of this stock?b. Suppose that you estimate the following regression describing the evolution of beta over time:βt = .3 + .7βt−1What would be your predicted beta for next year?
Assume that you run a regression on the raw returns of the stock of Company J against the raw returns of the market and find an intercept of 1.324 percent and a beta of 1.75. If the risk-free rate is 2.64 percent, and using the concept of Jensen's Alpha, then determine by how much this stock beat the market. Answer in decimal format, to 4 decimal places. For example, if you answer is 3.33%, enter "0.0333".
Assume that the risk-free rate is 3.5% and the expected return on the market is 10%. What is the required rate of return on a stock with a beta of 0.7? Round your answer to two decimal places.
Please do this in Excel using relevant formulas. Stock A has a beta of 0.5, and investors expect it to return 8%. Stock B has a beta of 1.5, and investors expect it to return 12%. Use the CAPM to find the market risk premium and the expected rate of return on the market.
A stock has an expected return (rs) of 10.4%, the risk-free rate (TRF) is 1.7%, and market risk premium (M-TRF) is 8.3%. What is this stock's Beta? Enter your answer as a number with two decimal places of precision (i.e. 1.23)
You are analyzing a stock that has a beta of 1.19. The risk-free rate is 4.4% and you estimate the market risk premium to be 6.6%. If you expect the stock to have a return of 9.8% over the next year, should you buy it? Why or why not? The expected return according to the CAPM is%. (Round to two decimal places.) Should you buy the stock? (Select the best choice below.) O A. Yes, because the expected return based on the beta is equal to or less than the return on the stock. O B. No, because the expected return based on the beta is greater than the return on the stock.
Assume the following inputs for a call option: (1) current stock price is $23, (2) strike price is $28, (3) time to expiration is 5 months, (4) annualized risk-free rate is 5%, and (5) variance of stock return is 0.3. The data has been collected in the Microsoft Excel Online file below. Open the spreadsheet and perform the required analysis to answer the question below. Use the Black-Scholes model to find the price for the call option. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent.
(I want the answer in 60 minutes or within ) You have observed the following returns over time: Assume that the risk-free rate is 4% and the market risk premium is 2%. a. What are the betas of Stocks X and Y? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places. Stock X: Stock Y: b.What are the required rates of return on Stocks X and Y? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places. Stock X: % Stock Y: % c. What is the required rate of return on a portfolio consisting of 80% of Stock X and 20% of Stock Y? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
