a. Given the following holding-period returns, (Below)compute the average returns and the standard deviations for the Sugita Corporation and for the market. b. If Sugita's beta is 1.18and the risk-free rate is 4 percent, what would be an expected return for an investor owning Sugita? (Note: Because the preceding returns are based on monthly data, you will need to annualize the returns to make them comparable with the risk-free rate. For simplicity, you can convert from monthly to yearly returns by multiplying the average monthly returns by 12.) c. How does Sugita's historical average return compare with the return you should expect based on the Capital Asset Pricing Model and the firm's systematic risk?
Higgs Bassoon Corporation is a custom manufacturer of bassoons and other wind instruments. Its current value of operations, which is also its value of debt plus equity, is estimated to be $200 million. Higgs has $110 million face value, zero coupon debt that is due in 3 years. The risk-free rate is 5%, and the standard deviation of returns for similar companies is 60%. The owners of Higgs Bassoon view their equity investment as an option and would like to know the value of their investment. Using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, how much is the equity worth? How much is the debt worth today? What is its yield? How much would the equity value and the yield on the debt change if Fethe's management were able to use risk management techniques to reduce its volatility to 45 percent? Can you explain this?
