  1. Final solution sketches Note for multiple-choice questions: Choose the closest answer

  2. 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%

  3. 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.

  4. Cash Flows • 1,000 = X/.09 * 1/1.09 • X = 98.1 • Note that EAIR is irrelevant here.

  5. 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?

  6. PV of Stock • Rate every 4 months = (1.0125)4 – 1 = 5.0945% • Rate every 2months = (1.0125)2– 1 = 2.5156% • PV = 6/.050945 * 1.025156 = $120.74

  7. 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%?

  8. Profitability Index • PVbenefits = 3000/.15 * 1/1.15 = $17,391.30 • PI = 17,391.30 / 10,000 = 1.73913

  9. 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.

  10. 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

  11. 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

  12. 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

  13. 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

  14. 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%

  15. 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%

  16. 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

  17. 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%?

  18. 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

  19. 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

  20. 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?

  21. 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

  22. 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

  23. 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%?

  24. 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

  25. Portfolio Expected Return/Risk • Two assets have zero correlation. Suppose that you invested in a portfolio of these assets that is NOT in the efficient set. Which of the following is possibleif you reallocate the amount of money you have invested in each asset?

  26. Portfolio Expected Return/Risk • Answer: Increased expected return at the same level of risk AND increased expected on the portfolio with decreased risk, NOT same expected return with decreased risk Opportunity Set B Yes Yes No Efficient Set A

  27. 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?

  28. Sharpe Ratio • Avgrisk premium = (.1 + .15 + .1) / 3 = .12 • SD of risk premium = (.04)1/2 = 0.2 • Sharpe ratio = .12 / .2 = 0.6

  29. 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.

  30. 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

  31. 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%.

  32. 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

  33. 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%).

  34. 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%

  35. 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?

  36. Random Walk Stock Value • Possible stock values in 1 year: • 50% probof $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

  37. 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?

  38. 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
