What makes for a good investment? Use the approximate yield formula or a financial calculator to rank the following investments according to their expected returns. Buy a stock for $30 a share, hold it for three years, and then sell it for $60 a share (the stock pays annual dividends of $2 a share). Buy a security for $40, hold it for two years, and then sell it for $100 (current income on this security is zero). Buy a one-year, 5 percent note for $1,000 (assume that the note has a $1,000 par value and that it will be held to maturity).
An investor is thinking about buying some shares of Health Diagnostics, Inc., at $75 a share. She expects the price of the stock to rise to $115 a share over the next three years. During that time, she also expects to receive annual dividends of $4 per share. Assuming that the investor’s expectations (about the future price of the stock and the dividends that it pays) hold up, what rate of return can the investor expect to earn on this investment? (Hint: Use either the approximate yield formula or a financial calculator to solve this problem.)
2. Answer both questions: a. You purchase 100 shares of stock for $40 a share. The stock pays a $2 per share dividend at year-end. What is the rate of return on your investment if the year-end stock prices turn out to be $38, $40, and $42? What is your real (inflation-adjusted) rate of return in each case, assuming an inflation rate of 3%? b. Consider the following information on the returns on stock and bond investment. Scenario Profitability Stocks Bonds Recession .2 -5% +14% Normal Economy .6 +15% +8% Boom .2 +25% +4% i) Calculate the expected rate of return and standard deviation in each investment. ii) Do your results support or contradict the historical record on the relationship between risk and return in the financial market in both Canada and the United States? iii) Which investment would you prefer? Explain your answer.
An investor buys a share of stock for $40 at time t = 0, buys another share of the same stock for $50 at t = 1, and sells both shares for $60 each at t = 2. The stock paid a dividend of $1 per share at t = 1 and at t = 2. The periodic money weighted rate of return on the investment is closest to: 23.0% 22.2% 23.8%
A. If a security offers a dividend amounting to P 5.23/ share and an investor purchased 200 shares at P 77.50/share, what is his Total Investment Return at the end of the year if the share price increased by 8%? Based on the given above, compute for the Dividend Yield Rate, Capital Gains Rate, and Total Investment Return Rate. Dividend Yield Rate: Dt+1/Pt = (P5.23+1/77.50) = 0.06748 or 6.748% Capital Gains Rate: (Pt+1-Pt) /Pt = 77.50 x 8%= 6.2 = 77.50/6.2= 83.7 = 83.7-77.50 = 6.2/77.50 = 0.08 or 8% Total Investment Return Rate: (Dt+1+Pt+1-Pt) /Pt = (5.23+1+83.7-77.50)/ 77.50 = 0.147 or 14.7%
