Based on the information given, for a price-weighted index of the three stocks calculate:a.the rate of return for the first period (t=0 to t=1).b.the value of the divisor in the second period (t=2). Assume that Stock A had a 2-1split during this period.c.the rate of return for the second period (t=1 to t=2).Difficulty: DifficultAnswer:A.The price-weighted index at time 0 is (70+85+105)/3 = 86.67. The price-weightedindex at time 1 is (72+81+98)/3 = 83.67. The return on the index is 83.67/86.67 – 1 = -3.46%.B.The divisor must change to reflect the stock split. Because nothing elsefundamentally changed, the value of the index should remain 83.67. So the newdivisor is (36+81+98)/83.67 = 2.57. The index value is (36+81+98)/2.57 = 83.67.C.The rate of return for the second period is 83.67/83.67-1 = 0.00%64. Based on the information given for the three stocks, calculate the first-period rates ofreturn (from t=0 to t=1) ona. a market-value-weighted index.b.an equally-weighted index.c. a geometric index.Difficulty: DifficultAnswer:A.The total market value at time 0 is $70*200 + $85*500 + $105*300 = $88,000. Thetotal market value at time 1 is $72*200 + $81*500 + $98*300 = $84,300. The return is $84,300/$88,000 – 1 = -4.20%.B.The return on Stock A for the first period is $72/$70-1 = 2.86%. The return onStock B for the first period is $81/$85-1 = -4.71%. The return on Stock C for thefirst period is $98/$105-1 = -6.67%. The return on an equally weighted index of the three stocks is (2.86%-4.71%-6.67%)/3 = -2.84%.C.The geometric average return is [(1+.0286)(1-.0471)(1-.0667)](1/3)-1 =[(1.0286)(0.9529)(0.9333)]0.3333 -1 = -2.92%。

Market Portfolio - Portfolio of all assets in the economy. In practice, a broad stock market index, such as the S&P Composite, is used to represent the market. Beta - Sensitivity of a stock’s return to the return on the market portfolio.

Solutions
– Problems 1 and 2 can be moderated by more sophisticated statistical techniques. – Problem 3 can be lessened by adjusting for changes in business and financial risk. – Look at average beta estimates of comparable firms in the industry.
