- Question 4 3.8 CAPM: The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is a financial model that assumes returns on a portfolio are normally distributed. Suppose a portfolio has an average annual return of 14.7% (i.e. an average gain of 14.7%) with a standard deviation of 33%. A return of 0% means the value of the portfolio doesn't change, a negative return means that the portfolio loses money, and a positive return means that the portfolio gains money.

However, the current year seems to be different from those years as the company is expecting a decline in profit; which is estimated to be about 70% below the target. The manager now is in a dilemma … asking himself/herself “What happened, why this decline in profit?” The Manager then asked the company Accountant to give him/her the data on sales and advertising cost for the last 10 years – he/she wants these data to determine whether the company can live without advertising, as advertising cost happens to be substantial.
