- 1. Which of the following statements is FALSE? A) When an investment is risky, there are different returns it may earn. B) In finance, the variance of a return is also referred to as its volatility. C) The expected or mean return is calculated as a weighted average of the possible returns, where the weights correspond to the probabilities. D) The variance is a measure of how "spread out" the distribution of the return is.arrow_forwardWhen, if ever, will the geometric average return exceed the arithmetic average return for a given set of returns? Never When the set of returns includes only risk-free rates. When all of the rates of return in the set of returns are equal to each other.arrow_forwardA plot/graph of the positive relation between systematic risk and expected return is called: O security market line standard deviation and width of the normal distribution O covariance graph O capital asset pricing modelarrow_forward
- 1. Define the components of holding period return. Can any of these components be negative? 2. How do you understand an investment risk and what statistic tools can be used to measure it?arrow_forwardin a Statistical sense, the Single Index Model is best characterized by: the Capital Market Line The Security Market Liner Regression of any asset as a linear function of the Market, plus mean-zero random error A regression of the Market, as a linear function of any given asset, plus mean-zero random error Iarrow_forwardEvaluate the following statement: If the financial market is frictionless and complete, the asset with higher expected return also exhibits higher return volatility (i.e., standard deviation of returns).arrow_forward
- Supposing the return from an investment has the following probability distribution Return Probability R (%) 8 0.2 10 0.2 12 0.5 14 0.1 Required: What is the expected return of the investment? What is the risk as measured by the standard deviation of expected returns?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements regarding unsystematic risk is accurate? Multiple Choice It is measured by beta. It is compensated for by the risk premium. It can be effectively eliminated by portfolio diversification. It is measured by standard deviation. It is related to the overall economy.arrow_forwardA measure of how the returns of two risky assets move in relation to each other is the: Elasticity Covariance. Beta. Correlation.

- Compare and contrast the risk versus expected rate of return tradeoff, the security market line, and determination of beta on this basis. Include explanation of all the constituents, namely security market line, risk measure, expected rate of return, risk-free rate of return, and market rate of return. Include hypothetical examples for better clarity. What is the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) and its significance?arrow_forwardWhich one of the following statements is correct? Multiple Choice The risk-free rate of return has a risk premium of 1.0. The reward for bearing risk is called the standard deviation. Risks and expected return are inversely related. The higher the expected rate of return, the wider the distribution of returns. Risk premiums are inversely related to the standard deviation of returns.arrow_forwardIf an investment’s expected return (mean return) does not plot on the SML, what does it show?
