Sample question:You have the following rates of return for a risky portfolio for several recent years:1. If you invested $1,000 at the beginning of 2005 your investment at the end of 2008 would be worth ___________.A. $2,176.60B. $1,785.56C. $1,645.53D. $1,247.87If you invest 1,000, at the end of year one, you will have 1000*(1+35.23%),At the end of year 2, you will have 1000*(1+35.23%)*(1+18.67%), do the same work for year 3 and 4, then$1000(1+35.23%)(1+18.67%)(1 -9.87%)(1+23.45%) = $1785.562. The annualized average return on this investment isA. 16.15%B. 16.87%C. 21.32%D. 15.60%Because geometric average rate of return is more accurate, we will use geometric average rate of return here.Geometric average rate of return=((1+r_1)(1+r_2)*…(1+r_n))^(1/n)-1, then we haveHint: we have already calculated 1000(1+35.23%)(1+18.67%)(1 -9.87%)(1+23.45%) = $1785.56, thus (1+35.23%)(1+18.67%)(1 -9.87%)(1+23.45%)=1.7856.1.

We need to distinguish between timing and selection abilities. The intercept of the scatterdiagram is a measure of stock selection ability. If the manager tends to have a positive excess return even when the market’s performance is merely ‘neutral’ (i.e., has zero excess return, then we conclude that the manager has on average made good stock picks – stock selection must be the source of the positive excess returns.Timing ability is indicated by curvature in the plotted line. Lines that become steeper as you move to the right of the graph show good timing ability. An upward curvedrelationship indicates that the portfolio was more sensitive to market moves when the market was doing well and less sensitive to market moves when the market was doingpoorly -- this indicates good market timing skill. A downward curvature would indicate poor market timing skill.We can therefore classify performance ability for the four managers as follows:a. Bad Goodb. Good Goodc. Good Badd. Bad Bad9. The manager’s alpha is:10 - [6 + 0.5(14-6] = 010. a α(A = 24 - [12 + 1.0(21-12] = 3.0%α(B = 30 - [12 + 1.5(21-12] = 4.5%T(A = (24 - 12/1 = 12T(B = (30-12/1.5 = 12As an addition to a passive diversified portfolio, both A and B are candidates because they both have positive alphas.b (i The funds may have been trying to time the market. In that case, the SCL of the funds may be non-linear (curved.(ii One year’s worth of data is too small a sample to make clear conclusions.(iii The funds may have significantly different levels of diversification. If both have the same risk-adjusted return, the fund with the less diversified portfolio has a higher exposure to risk because of its higher firm-specific risk. Since the above measure adjusts only for systematic risk, it does not tell the entire story.11. a Indeed, the one year results were terrible, but one year is a short time period from whichto make clear conclusions. Also, the Board instructed the manager to give priority to long-term results.b The sample pension funds had a much larger share in equities compared to Alpine’s. Equities performed much better than bonds. Also, Alpine was told to hold down risk investing at most 25% in equities. Alpine should not be held responsible for an asset allocation policy dictated by the client.c Alpine’s alpha measures its risk-adjusted performance compared to the market’s:α = 13.3 - [7.5 + 0.9(13.8 - 7.5] = 0.13%, which is actually above zero!d Note that the last five years, especially the last one, have been bad for bonds – and Alpine was encouraged to hold bonds. Within this asset class, Alpine did much better than the index funds. Alpine’s performance within each asset class has been superior on a risk-adjusted basis. Its disappointing performance overall was due to a heavy asset allocation weighting toward bonds, which was the Board’s –not Alpine’s – choice.e A trustee may not care about the time-weighted return, but that return is moreindicative of the manager’s performance. After all, the manager has no control over the cash inflow of the fund.。

The payback rule ignores all cash flows after the cutoff date,meaning that future years’ cash inflows are not considered. In addition, thepayback rule ignores the timing of cash inflows. For example, for apayback rule set at two years, a project with a payback period of one yearis given equal weight as a project with a payback period of two years.f.

When using the IRR rule, the firm must still compare the IRR with theopportunity cost of capital. Thus, even with the IRR method, one mustspecify the appropriate discount rate.b. Risky cash flows should be discounted at a higher rate than the rate usedto discount less risky cash flows.

From the graph, we can estimate the IRR of each project from the pointwhere its line crosses the horizontal axis:IRR A = 13.1% and IRR B = 11.9%This can be checked by calculating the NPV for each project at theirrespective IRRs, which give an approximate NPV of 0.c.The company should accept Project A if its NPV is positive and higherthan that of Project B; that is, the company should accept Project A if thediscount rate is greater than 10.7% (the intersection of NPV A and NPV B onthe graph below) and less than 13.1% (the internal rate of return).d. The cash flows for (B–A) are:C0 = $ 0C1 = –$60C2 = –$60C3 = +$140Therefore:Discount Rate0% 10% 20%NPV B−A+20.00 +1.05 -10.65IRR B − A = 10.7%The company should accept Project A if the discount rate is greater than10.7% and less than 13.1%. As shown in the graph, for these discountrates, the IRR for the incremental investment is less than the opportunitycost of capital.Est. time: 06 - 1012. a. Because Project A requires a larger capital outlay, it ispossible that Project A has both a lower IRR and a higher NPV thanProject B. (In fact, NPV A is greater than NPV B for all discount rates lessthan 10%.) Because the goal is to maximize shareholder wealth, NPV isthe correct criterion.b. To use the IRR criterion for mutually exclusive projects, calculate theIRR for the incremental cash flows:C 0 C 1 C 2 IRRA -B −200 +110 +121 10%Because the IRR for the incremental cash flows exceeds the cost ofcapital, the additional investment in A is worthwhile. c. 81.86$(1.09)3001.09250400NPV 2A =++-= $79.10(1.09)1791.09140200NPV 2B =++-= Est. time: 06 - 1013. Use incremental analysis:C 1 C 2 C 3Current Arrangement −250,000 −250,000 +650,000Extra Shift −550,000 +650,000 0Incremental Flows −300,000 +900,000 -650,000The IRRs for the incremental flows are (approximately): 21.13% and 78.87%If the cost of capital is between these rates, Titanic should work the extra shift.Est. time: 06 - 1014.a. First calculate the NPV for each project.The NPV for Project D is: $=-+=D 20,000NPV 10,0008,181.821.10The NPV for Project E is:=-+=E 35,000NPV 20,000$11,818.181.10Profitability index = NPV/initial investment.For Project D: Profitability index = 8,181.82/10,000 = .82.For Project E: Profitability index = 11,818.18/20,000 −.59.b. Each project has a profitability index greater than zero, and so both areacceptable projects. In order to choose between these projects, we must use incremental analysis. For the incremental cash flows:0.3610,0003,63610,000)( 1.1015,00010,000PI D E ==--+-=- The increment is thus an acceptable project, and so the larger project should be accepted, i.e., accept Project E. (Note that, in this case, the better project has the lower profitability index.)Est. time: 11 - 1515. Using the fact that profitability index = (net present value / investment), we find:ProjectProfitability Index 10.22 2−0.02 30.17 40.14 50.07 60.18 7 0.12 Thus, given the budget of $1 million, the best the company can do is to acceptProjects 1, 3, 4, and 6.If the company accepted all positive NPV projects, the market value (compared to the market value under the budget limitation) would increase by the NPV ofProject 5 plus the NPV of Project 7: $7,000 + $48,000 = $55,000.Thus, the budget limit costs the company $55,000 in terms of its market value.Est. time: 06 - 1016. The IRR is the discount rate wh ich, when applied to a project’s cash flows, yieldsNPV = 0. Thus, it does not represent an opportunity cost. However, if eachproject’s cash flows could be invested at that project’s IRR, then the NPV of each project would be zero because the IRR would then be the opportunity cost ofcapital for each project. The discount rate used in an NPV calculation is theopportunity cost of capital. Therefore, it is true that the NPV rule does assume that cash flows are reinvested at the opportunity cost of capital.Est. time: 06 - 1017.a.C 0 = –3,000 C 0 = –3,000C 1 = +3,500 C 1 = +3,500C 2 = +4,000 C 2 + PV(C 3) = +4,000 – 3,571.43 = 428.57C 3 = –4,000 MIRR = 27.84%b. 2321 1.12C 1.12xC xC -=+ (1.122)(xC 1) + (1.12)(xC 2) = –C 3(x)[(1.122)(C 1) + (1.12C 2)] = –C 3)()2123 1.12C )(C (1.12C -x += 0.4501.12)(4,00)(3,500(1.124,000x 2=+=)() 0IRR)(1x)C -(1IRR)(1x)C -(1C 2210=++++ 0IRR)(10)0.45)(4,00-(1IRR)(10)0.45)(3,50-(13,0002=++++- Now, find MIRR using either trial and error or the IRR function (on afinancial calculator or Excel). We find that MIRR = 23.53%.It is not clear that either of these modified IRRs is at all meaningful.Rather, these calculations seem to highlight the fact that MIRR really hasno economic meaning.

The reason for this result is that Project Z provides apositive cash flow in periods 1 and 2.If the financing available at t = 1 is $21,000:Optimized NPV = $13,900with x W = 1; x X = 0.8; x Y = 1 and x Z = 0Hence, the shadow price of an additional $1,000 in t =1 financing is $450.Est. time: 11 - 15。

chapter5-ledger accounts and double entry

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Ledger accounts and nominal ledger
1.
The records of transactions, assets and liabilities should be kept in the following ways.
In chronological order, and dated so that transactions can be related to a particular period of time. Build up in cumulative totals. Books of original entry then to summarize these records.
The
wages of employee is the deduction of profit. Any amount paid by a business to its proprietor is treated by accountants as withdrawals of profit (the usual term is appropriations of profit) and not as expenses incurred by the business. The drawings of owner are the deduction of capital.
2.
The entries in the books of prime entry are posted to ledgers.
The books of prime entry are totaled up and two entries will be made in these accounts with each of these totals – this is called double entry. Ledger accounts summarise all the individual transactions listed in the books of pd general ledger, is an accounting record which summarizes the financial affairs of a business. It is the double entry books of account.

NPV Rule Revisited
The decision criterion/rule is that invest if the proposed project’s NPV is positive.
– Forecasting the cash inflows and outflows. – The discount rate is the opportunity cost (or the cost of capital) which measures the rate of return on comparable investment opportunities.
– – – – factories, machinery, warehouses research laboratories showrooms, and training the personnel.
The process of analyzing such decisions is called capital budgeting.
