answer
Effective Annual Returns Suppose a house was worth
$540,000 on October 1, 2012. The same house was worth $652,000 on May 1, 2013. What was the effective annual rate of return between these two dates? Monthly rate = (652,000/540,000)1/7 –
1 = 2.729% Yearly rate = (1.02729)12 – 1 =
38.1404%
Cash Flows Dave is investing in a stuffed bug
toy company. He knows the following: if he invests $1,000 today, he will receive $X every year, forever, starting two years from now. His effective annual discount rate is 12%. The IRR for this project is 9%. Find X.
Cash Flows 1,000 = X/.09 * 1/1.09 X = 98.1 Note that EAIR is irrelevant here.
PV of Stock A stock pays a $6 dividend every
four months, starting two months from today. If the stated annual interest rate is 15%, compounded monthly, what is the PV of each share of stock?
PV of Stock Rate every 4 months = (1.0125)4 – 1
= 5.0945% Rate every 2 months = (1.0125)2 – 1
= 2.5156% PV = 6/.050945 * 1.025156 =
$120.74
Profitability Index In order to produce new
sunglasses, Highway Jailhouse Sunglasses must pay $10,000 today in costs. They will have a net profit of $3,000 every year, starting two years from today. What is the profitability index of this project if the effective annual discount rate is 15%?
Profitability Index PVbenefits = 3000/.15 * 1/1.15 =
$17,391.30 PI = 17,391.30 / 10,000 = 1.73913
Option Values For the next 3 questions: Angela
has purchased three put options with an exercise price of $50, and four call options with an exercise price of $45. All options can be exercised for one share of stock, and the expiration date for all options will be one month from today. The stated annual interest rate is 12%, compounded monthly.
Option Values On the expiration date, what is the
total value of the seven options if the stock price will be $40? Calls: worthless Puts: 3 * (50 – 40) = $30 Total = $30
Option Values On the expiration date, what is the
total value of the seven options if the stock price will be $48? Calls: 4 * (48 – 45) = $12 Puts: 3 * (50 – 48) = $6 Total = $18
Option Values Angela predicts that the value of
the stock could be $46, $47, or $48, each with 1/3 probability. What is the expected value of the option if this assessment is true? FV = 1/3*[4*(46-45) + 3*(50-46)] +
1/3*[4*(47-45) + 3*(50-47)] + 1/3*[4*(48-45) + 3*(50-48)]
FV = 1/3 * (16 + 17 + 18) = $17 PV = 17 / 1.01 = $16.83
Standard Deviation of Stock Returns A sample of stocks has rates of
return of 5%, 10%, and 9%. Find the standard deviation of this sample. Arithmetic average = (.05 + .1
+ .09) / 3 = .08
Standard Deviation of Stock Returns
Variance= 1/2 * [(.05-.08)2 + (.1-.08)2 + (.09-.08)2]
Variance= 1/2 * [.0009 + .0004 + .0001] = .0007
Standard deviation = (.0007)1/2 = .02646
Standard deviation = 2.646%
Internal Rates of Return If Jackson invests in a company, he
will pay $5,000 one year from today, and he will receive $7,000 four years from today. What is the internal rate of return for this investment if Jackson’s effective annual discount rate is 8%? 5000 / (1 + IRR) = 7000 / (1 + IRR)4
(1 + IRR)3 = 1.4 IRR = 11.869%
Continuously-compounded Annuities Heyward is set to receive $1,000
per year for three years, starting one year from today. His stated annual discount rate is 5%, compounded continuously. What is the PV of the three payments? 1000 / e.05 + 1000 / e.05*2 + 1000 /
e.05*3 = $2,716.77
Growing Dividends Neon Yellow Paper, Inc. is expected
to pay a dividend of $2.50 per share later today. The dividend is expected to go up by 20% each of the next three years, followed by a constant dividend forever after. What is the PV of this stock if the effective annual interest rate for this stock is 14%?
Growing Dividends PV0 = $2.50 PV1 = 2.50*1.2/1.14 = $2.6316 PV2 = 2.50*(1.22)/(1.142) =
$2.7701 PV3 = 2.50*(1.23)/.14 * 1/(1.142) =
$23.744 Total PV = $31.645
Decreasing Dividends Old Yucker stock is expected to pay
its next dividend of $1 per share one year from today. The dividend will fall by 5% each year forever. What is the PV of this stock if the effective annual discount rate is 6%? 1 / (.06-(-.05)) = 1/.11 = $9.0909
Correlated Returns There are three known states of
the world, each with 1/3 probability: good, okay, and bad. QWE stock has a 20% return in the good state, 9% in okay, and -2% in bad. ZXC stock has a 15% return in good, 6% in okay, and 3% in bad. What is the correlation of these two stocks?
Correlated Returns Note that there is a strong positive
correlation (better state higher return)
AvgQWE = (20 + 9 – 2) / 3 = 9% SDQWE = [1/3 * (.2-.09)2 + (.09-.09)2 +
(-.02-.09)2]1/2 = .0898146 AvgZXC = (15 + 6 + 3) / 3 = 8%
SDZXC = [1/3 * (.15-.08)2 + (.06-.08)2 + (.03-.08)2]1/2 = .0509902
Correlated Returns Cov(QWE, ZXC) = 1/3 *
[(.2-.09)(.15-.08) + (.09-.09)(.06-.08) + (-.02-.09)(.03-.08)] = .0044
Corr = .0044 / (.0898146 * .0509902) = 0.960769
Equivalent Annual Cost A new machine currently costs
$500. The first required maintenance cost will be $25 one year from now. Each subsequent year, the maintenance cost doubles, until the last cost is paid in four years. What is the equivalent annual cost of the machine if the effective annual discount rate is 10%?
Equivalent Annual Cost PVcosts = 500 + 25/1.1 + 50/1.12 +
100/1.13 + 200/1.14 = $775.784 EAC: 775.784 = EAC/.1 * [1 –
1/(1.16)] 775.784 = 4.35526 * EAC
EAC = $178.126

Sharpe Ratio In the Jacksonvilla stock market,
the average annual risk premium was 10% in the 1970s, 15% in the 1980s, and 11% in the 1990s. The variance of the risk premium over this 30-year period was 0.04. What is the Sharpe ratio over this three-decade span?
Sharpe Ratio Avg risk premium = (.1 + .15
+ .1) / 3 = .12 SD of risk premium = (.04)1/2 = 0.2 Sharpe ratio = .12 / .2 = 0.6
Profitability Index Paulina Poundrock is considering a
new project that requires a $50,000 investment today. The next cash flow will occur in two years, a positive $10,000 cash flow. In three years, there will be a positive $18,000 cash flow. Each subsequent cash flow will be 8% higher than the previous year’s.
Profitability Index What is the profitability index of
this project if the effective annual discount rate is 14%? PVbenefits = 10,000/1.142 +
18,000/1.143 + 18,000 * 1.08 / (.14-.08) * 1/1.143
= 7695 + 12,149 + 218,691
= $238,535 PI = 238,535 / 50,000 = 4.7707
Option Values DPR stock sells for $100. Every
month, the stock value goes up by $5 with 60% probability and down by $4 with 40% probability. The last time the price changed was yesterday. Laura is considering buying a European call option with exercise price of $108 and expiration date in four months. Her stated annual discount rate is 12%.
Option Values What is the most that Laura is
willing to pay for this option? Four possible ways for positive
value: UUUU ($120) with prob. = .64 = .1296 UUUD/UUDU/UDUU/DUUU ($111) with
prob. = 4 * .63 * .4 = .3456 PV of option = 1/1.014 * [.1296*(120-
108) + .3456*(111-108)] = $2.4909
Random Walk Stock Value For the next two questions:
Arrowjones stock is currently priced at $55. Over the next year, the value of the stock could go up by 20% (with probability 50%), up by 10% (with probability 25%), or go down by 5% (with probability 25%).
Random Walk Stock Value What is the standard deviation of
the rate of return over the next year? Avg= .2(.5) + .1(.25) + (-.05)
(.25)=.1125 Variance = 1/2*[(.2-.1125)2] +
1/4*[(.1-.1125)2 + 1/4*[(-.05-.1125)2] = .01046875
SD = 0.102317 = 10.2317%
Random Walk Stock Value Assume that the effective annual
discount rate is 10%. A European call option with expiration date one year from today has a current risk-neutral value of $2. What is the exercise price of the option?
Random Walk Stock Value Possible stock values in 1 year:
50% prob of $66, 25% prob of $60.50, 25% prob of $52.25
Let X = exercise price .5 * (66 – X) / 1.10 = 2 66 – X = 4.40 X = $61.60
Note that an exercise price below $60.50 will lead to more than $2 risk-neutral value
Calculating Dividends RTT, Inc. will pay a dividend of $X
later today. The dividend will increase by $0.50 each of the next 3 years. After that, it will increase by 5% each year forever. The effective annual discount rate is 10%. What is X if the current value of RTT is $50 per share?
Calculating Dividends 50 = X + (X+.5)/1.1 + (X+1)/1.12
+ (X+1.5)/1.13 + (X+1.5)(1.05)/(.1-.05) * 1/(1.13)
50 = 3.48685X + 2.40796 + (1.05X + 1.575)/.06655
50 = 19.2645X + 26.0744 X = 1.2420
