Explanation / Answer

Problem 2

1.

Total investment =100+120+40+80+60 = 400

Weightage of FB, w1 =100/400 = 0.25

Weightage of BBY, w2 =120/400 = 0.30

Weightage of CMG, w3 = 40/400 = 0.10

Weightage of PF, w4 = 80/400 = 0.20

Weightage of MMM, w5 = 60/400 = 0.15

Expected return on the portfolio = wi*Ri (where Ri is expected return) = 0.25*0.18 + 0.30*0.21 + 0.10*0.10 + 0.20*0.08 + 0.15*0.14 = 0.155 or 15.5%

Expected return ($) = 400*15.5% = 62

2.

Beta of the portfolio = wi*i = 0.25*1.5+0.30*1.2+0.10*1.8+0.20*1.5+0.15*1.6 = 1.455

Problem 3

Annual interest, AI = 12

Years remaining to maturity, N = 10

Market price = 97.25

Face Value, or Redemption Value, RV = 100

Yield To Maturity (YTM) = (AI + (RV - MP) / N) / ((RV + MP) / 2) = (12+(100-97.25)/10)/((100+97.25)/2) = 12.45 %

Problem 4

Required rate of return or cost of equity = (dividend/stock price)*(1+growth rate) + growth rate

14% = (1.1/88.5)*(1+g) + g , where g is implied growth rate

Implied growth rate, g = 12.6 %
