- The standard deviation of stock returns for Stock A is 40%. The standard deviation of the market return is 20%. If the correlation between Stock A and the market is 0.70, then what is Stock A’s beta?Suppose that the index model for stocks A and B is estimated from excess returns with the following results: RA= 4.0% + 0.50RM + eA RB= -1.2% + 0.7RM + eB sigmaM= 17% ; R-squareA = 0.26 ; R-squareB= 0.18 Break down the variance of each stock to the systematic and firm-specific components (write in decimal form, rounded to 4 decimal places). Risk for A Risk for B Systematic Firm-specificSuppose that the index model for stocks A and B is estimated from excess returns with the following results:RA = 3% + .7RM + eARB = −2% + 1.2RM + eBσM = 20%; R-squareA = .20; R-squareB = .12Break down the variance of each stock into its systematic and firm-specific components.
- Suppose the index model for stocks A and B is estimated with the following results:rA = 2% + 0.8RM + eA, rB = 2% + 1.2RM + eB , σM = 20%, and RM = rM − rf . The regressionR2 of stocks A and B is 0.40 and 0.30, respectively. Answer the following questions. (a) What is the variance of each stock? (b) What is the firm-specific risk of each stock? (c) What is the covariance between the two stocks?Suppose the index model for stocks A and B is estimated with the following results:rA = 2% + 0.8RM + eA, rB = 2% + 1.2RM + eB , σM = 20%, and RM = rM − rf . The regressionR2 of stocks A and B is 0.40 and 0.30, respectively.(a) What is the variance of each stock? (b) What is the firm-specific risk of each stock? (c) What is the covariance between the two stocks?The following are estimates for a stock A. Stock Expected ret. beta firm-specific variance, or Var(e) A 0.15 1.3 0.34 The market index has a standard deviation of 0.22, and the risk-free rate is 0.03 What percentage of stock A's total risk is attributable to systematic risk (or market risk)? Here consider variance as the risk measure. Round your answer to 4 decimal places. For example if your answer is 3.205%, then please write down 0.0321.
- Consider the two (excess return) index model regression results for A and B. RA= 0.9% + 1.1RM , R-square = 0.590, and Residual Standard Deviation = 11% RB= -1.4% + 0.6RM, R-square = 0.456, and Residual Standard Deviation = 9.2% Which stock has more firm-specific risk, market risk, and greater fraction of return variability for market movement? Also, if rf were constant at 4.4% and the regression had been run using total rather than excess returns, what would have been the regression intercept for stock A (write as percentage, rounded to 2 decimal places)?A single stock, A has a variance of 0.006 and a covariance with the market portfolio given by 0.013. The market portfolio has an expected return of 10.50%, a market risk premium 4.30% and a variance of 0.013. What is the stock's fair expected return under the CAPM?Suppose that the index model for stocks A and B is estimated from excess returns with the following results: RA = 0.03 + 0.7 RM + eA RB = -0.02+ 1.2 RM + eB σM =0.20; R-square A = 0.25 R-square B = 0.20 What is the standard deviation of A & B, respectively? Group of answer choices 0.54, 0.28 0.28, 0.54 0.45, 0.50 0.50, 0.45
- Given the following returns for Stock X and stock Y Stock X % return Stock Y % return 2 1 4 3 6 5 8 6 12 9 Calculate the variance, and standard deviation of each stock return, assume the above is a sample (i.e. divide by n-1 instead of n). Interpret the results for x only. Calculate the covariance, and correlation coefficient between both stocks Assume a portfolio made of both stocks (60% in stock X and 40% in stock Y) calculate the expected return and standard deviation of the portfolio.The index model has been estimated for stocks A and B with the following results: RA 0.01 +0.5RM + A RB = 0.02 +1.3RM + eB standard deviation of the market is 0.25, standard deviation of eA is 0.2 and standard deviation of eB is 0.10 What is the covariance betwween the returns on stocks A and B?.Consider the two (excess return) index model regression results for A and B: RA = 0.8% + 1RM R-square = 0.588 Residual standard deviation = 10.8% RB = –1.2% + 0.7RM R-square = 0.452 Residual standard deviation = 9% a. Which stock has more firm-specific risk? A. Stock A B. Stock B Which stock has greater market risk? A. Stock A B. Stock B b. For which stock does market movement has a greater fraction of return variability? A. Stock A B. Stock B c. If rf were constant at 4.5% and the regression had been run using total rather than excess returns, what would have been the regression intercept for stock A? (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
