1. Capital Budgeting
TYPES OF CAPITAL BUDGETING PROPOSALS
If more than one proposal is under consideration, then these proposals can
be categorised as follows:

1.Mutually Exclusive Proposals : Two or more proposals are said to be


Mutually Exclusive Proposals when the acceptance of one proposal
implies the automatic rejection of other proposals, mutually exclusive to it.

2.Complementary Proposals: Two or more proposals are said to be


Complementary Proposals when the acceptance of one proposal implies
the acceptance of other proposal complementary to it, rejection of one
implies rejection of all complementary proposals.

3.Independent Proposals: Two or more proposals are said to be


Independent Proposals when the acceptance/rejection of one proposal
does not affect the acceptance / rejection of other proposals.

Present Value (P V) = Annuity (A) / Cost of Capital (K)

OR
Annuity (A) = Present Value (P V) X Cost of Capital (K)

P V of Annuity recd. In Perpetuity = A / R

Where A is Annuity and R is rate of interest.

Discount rate inclusive of inflation is called Money Discount Rate and


discount rate exclusive of inflation is called Real Discount Rate.

Risk Adj. Disc. Rate (RADR): Risk free rate (Rf)+ Risk Premium
OR

Risk Adj. Disc. Rate (RADR): Risk free rate (Rf)+ β X Risk Premium

The lower coefficient of Variation, the better it is.

Profitability Index (P I) =
𝐏 𝐕 𝐨𝐟 𝐅𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐡 𝐎𝐮𝐭𝐟𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐬

Accept when P I > 1. The higher the better.

Initial Investment
Pay Back Period =
Annual Cash flows
Accept the Project with least Payback Period.

Discounted Payback period is calculated by the same formula as payback


period with the exception that discounted cashflows are considered instead
of actual cashflows
𝒏
𝑨‾𝒕
𝑵𝑷𝑽 =
(𝟏 + 𝑹𝒇 )𝒕
𝒕=𝟏

Where A‾t is the expected cashflow in period t and Rf is risk free rate of
interest.

Accept when NPV is +ve. The higher the better.

Project NPV is the one which is calculated for the whole Project. Equity NPV
is the one which is calculated to know the return of equity holders. In this
case funds relating to equity holders alone are considered for computation.

I R R is the rate at which the present value cash inflows equal the present
value of cash outflows i.e. NPV is zero. For Project IRR all cashflows of the
project are considered and in case of Equity IRR only cashflows relating to
equity holders are considered. In case IRR is greater than interest rate on
loan, then, the excess rate will accrue to the benefit of equity holders.

Variance For one year period:

Variance = ∑Probability X (Given Value - Expected Value)2

Page 5 of 32
Standard Deviation = Variance1/2

When Cashflows are independent, Standard Deviation is calculated by the


formula:

𝒏
𝝈𝟐 𝒕
𝝈=
(𝟏 + 𝑹𝒇 )𝟐𝒕
𝒕=𝟏

Where, σt Standard deviation of possible net cashflows in period t.

When Cash flows are perfectly correlated over time:


𝒏
𝝈𝒕
𝝈 =
(𝟏 + 𝑹𝒇 )𝒕
𝒕=𝟏

In case cashflows are moderately correlated over time:

𝒏
𝝈 = 𝒕=𝟏(𝑵𝑷𝑽 − 𝑵𝑷𝑽‾)𝟐 𝑷𝒕

In case if two or more projects have same mean cashflows, then, the project
with lesser standard deviation is preferred.

Certainty Equivalent approach: In this case certain cashflows are


discounted instead of all project cashflows.

Joint probability: Joint Probability is the product of two or more than two
dependent probabilities. Sum of Joint Probabilities will always be equal to 1.

Conditional Event: If A & B are two events, then, if event B occurs after
occurrence of event A, it is called conditional event and is denoted as (B/A)

Conditional Probability: If A & B are 2 events of a sample, then the


probability of B after the occurrence of event A is called conditional
Probability of B given A and is denoted as P(B/A).

P(A ∩ B)
P(B/A) = ⇨ P A ∩ B = P A X P(B/A)
P(A)
Notation of Events:
Event A or Event B Occurs AUB
Event A & Event B Occur A ∩ B
Page 6 of 32
c c c
Neither A Nor B Occur (A U B) = A ∩ B = A‾ ∩ B‾
A Occurs but B does not Occur A ∩ Bc = A / B

2. Leasing
Evaluation of lease for Lessee: In this case comparison is to be made
between the NPV of outflows:
a. in case an asset is leased and used, or
b. the asset is bought and used.

BELR in case of lessee is the amount at which he will be indifferent between


buying an asset and leasing an asset.

Evaluation of lease for Lessor: In this case comparison of P V of


cashflows is to be made between:
a. buying an asset and leasing it getting lease income or
b. return expected by investing the funds elsewhere.

BELR for lessor is the amount at which he will be indifferent between buying
the asset and giving it for lease and / or investing the funds elsewhere and
earning desired cost of capital.

Equated yearly Installment = Loan amount / Cumulative Annuity


Factor of desired period

While ascertaining Present Values, people are using different rates for
discounting like interest rate, net of tax interest rate, cost of capital etc.
based on respective views. Ideal one will be the one using net of tax
interest rate in case of borrowing or using the cost of capital in case of using
own funds.

3. Dividends

Dividend Per Share


Rate of Dividend = X 100
Face Value Per Share

Dividend Per Share


Dividend Yield = X 100
Market Price Per Share

Dividend Per Share


Dividend Payout = X 100
Earnings Per Share

Equity dividends are to be paid after paying preference dividends.

Page 7 of 32
Traditional Theory:
𝐦(𝟒𝐃 + 𝐑) 𝐄
𝐏= = 𝐦(𝐃 + )
𝟑 𝟑
Where, P = Mkt. Price of share; D = Dividend per share; R = Retained
Earnings per share; E= EPS & m = a constant multiplier.

Walter Model:
𝐫 (𝐄 –𝐃)
𝐃+
𝐤
P=
𝐊

Where, P = Mkt. Price of share; D = Dividend per share; r = Return on


internal retentions; E= EPS & k = Cost of Capital.

If r > k, the share price will increase as Div. Payout decreases.


If r = k, then the price will not change with Div. Payout ratio.
If r < k, then also share price will increase because Div. Payout increases.

Optimal payout ratio will be for:


A growth co. (i.e r > k) is nil.
A normal co. (i.e. r = k ) is irrelevant, and
A declining (i.e. r < k) firm is 100%

Gordon Model:

𝐃𝟏 𝐃𝐨 (𝟏 + 𝐠) 𝐄 (𝟏 − 𝐛)
𝐏𝐨 = = =
𝐊−𝐠 𝐊−𝐠 𝐊 − 𝐛𝐫
Where, P0 = Mkt. Price per share before dividend; D1 = Dividend per share
in year 1; D0 = Dividend per share in current year; k = cost of equity; g =
growth rate of dividends; E = EPS, b = % of earnings retained; and r =
Return on internal retentions

g=b*r

In case the dividend amount is fixed for each year, then,


𝐃𝟏
𝐏 =
𝐊
If r > k, the share price will increase as Div. Payout decreases.
If r = k, then the price will not change with Div. Payout ratio.

Page 8 of 32
If r < k, then also share price will increase because Div. Payout increases.
Optimal payout ratio will be for:
A growth co. (i.e r > k) is nil.
A normal co. (i.e. r = k ) is irrelevant, and
A declining (i.e. r < k) firm is 100%

Modigliani-Miller (M M) Model:
If dividend is declared;
𝐏𝟏 + 𝐃𝟏
𝐏𝟎 = ⇨ 𝐏𝟏 = 𝐏𝟎 𝟏 + 𝐊 − 𝐃𝟏
𝟏+𝐊
If dividend is not declared;
𝐏𝟏
𝐏𝟎 = = ⇨ 𝐏𝟏 = 𝐏𝟎 𝟏 + 𝐊
𝟏+𝐊
Where, P0 = Current Mkt. Price of share; P1 = Mkt. Price at the end of
period 1; K= Cost of capital; D1 = Div. In year 1.

Lintner Model:
D1 = D0 + [(EPS * Target payout) – D0] * Af
D1 = Div. In year 1; D0 = Div. In year 0; Af = Adj. Factor

Dividend Discount Model:


Intrinsic value = Sum of the PVs‟ of future cash flows.
= PV of dividends + PV of sale value of stock.
D1 + D2 + D3 +. . .+ Dn + P
1 2 3 n
= (1+k) (1+k) (1+k) (1+k) (1+k)n
Dn = Dividend of year n; P = Sale price of stock; n = No. Of yrs.;
K = Capitalisation rate.

Discount model has 3 sub models:


a. Zero growth model: Each year dividends are fixed:
Then, Intrinsic Value = D / K
b. Constant growth (Gordon Model):
Then, Intrinsic Value (P) = D1 / (K – g)
P = Mkt. Price; D1 = Div. In year 1; K = Cost of capital; g = growth
rate of dividends.

Page 9 of 32
c. Variable growth rate model: Usually the three stages of growth,
the initial high rate of growth, a transition to slower growth, and
lastly a sustainable steady growth are considered. For each type of
stage, appropriate variables are considered and PVs‟ are calculated
and sum of the three PVs‟ is the intrinsic value of share.

Holding Period Return: This is the sum of dividend yield and capital gain
yield which is nothing but Total Yield.

𝐃𝟏 𝐏𝟏 − 𝐏𝟎
Total Yield = +

The difference between the prevailing price and futures price is known as
basis.
Basis = Spot Price – Future Price

In a normal market, spot price will be less than future price as future price
includes cost of carrying also. Further, apart from carrying cost the future
price may also change due to dividends etc. So,

Future price = Spot price + carrying cost – returns (dividends etc.)

In the case of annual compounding, forward price is calculated by the


formula:
A = P (1+r/100)t
Where A is the terminal value for an investment of P at r rate of interest per
annum for t years. In case interest is compounded n times in a year, then,

A = P (1+r/100n)nt

In case the compounding is more than once on daily basis, then the formula
stands modified as:
A = P * ern
Where e is called epsilon, a constant and its value is taken as 2.72

Page 10 of 32
Alternatively,
Future Value = Present Value * ert
In case any income flows are there, then they are to be deducted and the
formula will be:
A = (P – I) * ern
Where I is the present value of income inflow.

If the income accretion is in the form % yield y (like in index futures) then
the formula is:
A = P * e(r-y)n

Options Seller is called Writer or Grantor and the buyer is called simply
buyer or at times as dealer / trader.

An option is said to be in the money when it is advantageous to exercise it.


When exercise is not advantageous it is called out of the money.
When option holder does not gain or lose it is called at the money.

In case of an option buyer, while there is no limit on the profit he can make,
loss is limited to the value of premium he pays to buy the option. In
problems, if premium is not given, loss is to be taken as zero. It will be
opposite in case of option seller i.e. Writer or Grantor.

Intrinsic Value and Time Value of Option: Option premium has two
components viz. Intrinsic Value and Time Value. Intrinsic Value is the
difference between Exercise price and Market price or Zero whichever is
higher. Time Value is the excess of Option price over its Intrinsic Value.

European Option can be exercised only on the due date of the option.
American Option can be exercised at any time during the period of option.

TIME IS THE ALLY OF WRITER AND ENEMY OF OPTION BUYER SINCE IN THE
LONG RUN GOOD STOCKS WILL USUALLY DO BETTER.

Black-Scholes Model:

𝐗 𝐍(𝐝𝟐 )
𝐎𝐏 = 𝐒 𝐍(𝐝𝟏 ) – , And
𝐞𝐫𝐭

𝐥𝐧 S + (𝐫 + 𝐯𝟐 ) 𝐭
𝟐

𝐝𝟏 =
X
𝟏/𝟐 𝐯𝐭

𝐒 𝐯𝟐
𝐥𝐧 +(𝐫 − )𝐭
𝐝𝟐 = 𝐗 𝟐
= 𝐝𝟏 − 𝐯𝐭 𝟏/𝟐 where,
𝐯 𝐭 𝟏/𝟐

Page 11 of 32
S = Current Stock Price
X = Strike Price,
r = Continuously Compounded Risk free Interest Rate
t = Balance period of option expressed as percentage,
N(d1) = Normal distribution of d1
N(d2) = Normal distribution of d2
ln = Natural Logarithm
e = exponential constant with value 2.72,
v = Volatility of stock, i.e. Standard Deviation
N(d1) is the hedge ratio of stock to options, to keep the writer hedged and
N(d2) / ert is Present Value of the borrowing.

The above formula can be used to find the Value of Equity also with little
changes. In this case, in the place current stock price we need to use
current value of business and in the place of strike price we need to use
value of debt. Rest of all the things are same.

Binomial Model:
𝐮𝐕𝐭+𝟏
Up tick 𝐮𝐭 = 𝐮𝐕𝐭
𝐝𝐕𝐭+𝟏
Down tick 𝐝𝐭 = 𝐝𝐕𝐭

Where uVt = up tick value in period t; uVt+1 = uptick value in period t+1.
Similarly, dVt & dVt+1 for down ticks.

In case of continuous compounding,


𝐞𝐫𝐭 −𝐝𝐭
Probability of Uptick 𝐏(𝐔𝐭 ) =
𝐮𝐭 −𝐝𝐭
In case of normal compounding,
𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝟏+𝐢𝐧𝐭.𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 −𝐝𝐭 𝐫−𝐝𝐭
Probability 𝐏 = =
𝐮𝐭 −𝐝𝐭 𝐮𝐭 −𝐝𝐭

Where e is epsilon (with value 2.72) and t is time period. Please note that
the t in rt indicates time period whereas the t in ut and dt indicates tick.

Risk neutral Method:


Option Value = [Cu X P + Cd (1-P)] / (1 + r)
Where Cu is option value during uptick and Cd is option value during down
tick P is probability and r is rate of interest.

Page 12 of 32
Put Call Parity Theory: This theory holds good only when exercise price
and maturity of both put and call options are same.

Value of Call – Value of Put = Current Market Price – P V of Strike Price

In case of an All In Cost (AIC) swap, fixed interest payment is calculated by


the formula:
Fixed Interest Payment = N * AIC * 180 /360

Where N denotes notional principal amount.

Floating interest payment is calculated by the formula:

Floating Interest Payment = N * LIBOR * dt / 360


Where, dt indicates days lapsed since the last settlement.

Generally margin of a future contract is calculated by the formula:

Initial margin = D + 3 SD
Where, D = Daily Avg. Price, and SD is Standard Deviation of the
instrument.

TIME IS THE ALLY OF WRITER AND ENEMY OF OPTION BUYER SINCE IN THE LONG RUN GOOD STOCKS
WILL USUALLY DO BETTER.

Long Call : buying a Call option expecting Price to Increase


Long Put : buying a Put option expecting Price to Decrease
Short Call : selling a Call option expecting Price to Decrease
Short Put : selling a Put option expecting Price to Increase

Straddle means buying a Call Option and Put Option with same exercise
price and expiry date.

Strangle means buying a Call Option and buying a Put Option with same
expiry date but different exercise prices.

Butterfly Strategy: In this one buys a call option at price S+a and another
at price S-a. Then 2 call options are sold at price S. All calls are contracted
for same maturity date. The buyer of calls makes profit when the market
price lies between S+a and S-a. if the market price is outside the range
then he will not make any profit and loss will be to the extent of net of
premium paid and received on the four options. This strategy will give
limited profits with limited risks. Profits will be maximum when market price
is nearer to spot price. S means Spot price.

Page 13 of 32
Caps: Caps means setting the upper limit .Usually the upper limit is set by
Strike Price of a Call purchased
Floor: Floor means setting the lower limit .Usually the lower limit is set by
Strike Price of Put sold.
Collar: Combination of Caps and Floor is known as Collars .

Greeks:
Delta is the sensitivity of option price due to change in the value of the
underlying by a unit.
Gamma is the sensitivity of option price due to change in Delta.
Theta is the sensitivity of option price due to change in expiry date by a
day.
Rho is the sensitivity of option price due to change in interest rate.
Vega is the sensitivity of option price due to volatility of the underlying
asset.

5. Securities
Moving Averages: Moving averages of prices are plotted to make buy sell
decisions. Arithmetic Moving Average (AMA) is the simple average of the
available prices. In case of Exponential Moving Average (EMA) more
weightage is given to current results as against older results. The reduction
of weightage is done through a constant known as exponential smoothing
constant or Exponent. EMA is calculated by the formula:

EMAT = aPt + (1 - a) * EMAt-1 = EMAt-1 + a (Pt – EMAt-1)

Where, a = Exponent Constant; Pt = Price on respective day and EMAt-1 =


Preceding day‟s EMA.

Value of a Bond: Value of a bond is sum of the discounted values of the


series of interest payments (called interest strips) and principal amount
(called principal strips) at maturity. Formula is:
𝑛 𝐼 𝐹
V= 𝑡=1 1+𝑘 𝑡 + where,
𝑑 1+𝑘 𝑑 𝑛

In case interest is paid semi annually, formula is:


𝑰
𝟐𝒏 𝑭
𝒕=𝟏[ ]+[
𝟐
V= 𝒌 𝒌 ] Where,
(𝟏+ 𝒅 )𝒕 (𝟏+ 𝒅 )𝟐𝒏
𝟐 𝟐

V = Value of bond; I = series of interest payments; I/2 = Semi Annual


series of interest payments; F = Face Value incl. Prem., if any; kd =

Page 14 of 32
Required. Rate of return; n = maturity period; and 2n = maturity period
expressed in terms of half yearly periods;

Bond Value Theorems:


a. When the required rate of return equals the coupon rate, the bond sells at
par value.
b. When the required rate of return exceeds the coupon rate, the bond sells
at a discount. The discount declines as maturity approaches.
c. When the required rate of return is less than the coupon rate, the bond
sells at a premium. The premium declines as maturity approaches.
d. The longer the maturity of a bond, the greater is its price change with a
given change in the required rate of return.
e. Price of a bond varies inversely with yield because as the required yield
increases, the present value of the cash flow decreases; hence the price
decreases and vice versa.
f. Value of the bond changes with duration. As the bond approaches its
maturity date, the premium / discount will tend to be zero.

Yield is the payment at maturity.

Yield to maturity: The rate of return one earns is called the Yield to
Maturity (YTM). The YTM is defined as that value of the discount rate (“kd”)
for which the Intrinsic Value of the Bond equals its Market Price (Note the
similarity between YTM of a Bond and IRR of a Project). YTM is also known
as COST OF DEBT or REDEMPTION YIELD or IRR or MARKET RATE OF
INTEREST or MARKET RATE OF RETURN or OPPORTUNITY COST OF DEBT.

YTM and Bond value have inverse relationship. i.e. if YTM increases Bond
value will decrease and Vice versa.

Duration of Bond: The term duration has a special meaning in case of


Bonds. Duration is the average time taken by an investor to collect his
investment. If an investor receives a part of his investment over the time on
specific intervals before maturity, the investment will offer him the duration
which would be lesser than the maturity of the instrument. Higher the
coupon rate, lesser would be the duration.

Duration of the Bond can be calculated by the formula:


1+r 1 + r + n (c − r)
D = –
r c(1 + r)n − c + r

Page 15 of 32
Where, D = Duration;
r = Required yield;
n = Number of years; and
c = Coupon rate

Macaulay duration is the weighted average time until cash flows are
received, and is measured in years.

Modified duration is the percentage change in price for a unit change in


yield.

𝐧 𝐭∗𝐂 𝐧∗𝐌
Macaulay Duration (in years) =[ 𝐭=𝟏 (𝟏+𝐢)𝐭 + ] / P where,
(𝟏+𝐢)𝐧

Modified Duration = Macaulay Duration / (1 + YTM / n)

n = number of cash flows; t = time to maturity;


C = Cash flows; i = Requd. Yield;
M = Maturity Value; P = Bond Price and
YTM = Yield to Maturity

𝐕𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐨𝐫 𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐃𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐫 𝐒𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲 (%) =
𝐘𝐓𝐌

Modified duration will be always less than Macaulay Duration.

Macaulay duration and modified duration are both termed "duration" and
have the same (or close to the same) numerical value, but it is important to
keep in mind the conceptual distinctions between them. Macaulay duration is
a time measure with units in years whereas, Modified duration is a derivative
(rate of change) or price sensitivity and measures the percentage rate of
change of price with respect to yield.

Zero Coupon Bond will have Macaulay Duration equal to maturity period.

Self Amortising Bonds: These are bonds which pay principal over a period
of time rather than on maturity.

Inflation Bonds: These are bonds where coupon rate is adjusted according
to inflation. That is investor gets inflation free interest. Suppose coupon
rate is 8% and inflation 6%. Then investor will get 14.48%.

If value of Bond > Market price, then Buy and vice versa.

Page 16 of 32
Bond with variable yield rates: In case a bond has different yields of Y1,
Y2 & Y3 in 3 years, then value of bond is calculated by the formula:

𝐈𝐧𝐭. 𝐈𝐧𝐭. 𝐈𝐧𝐭.


𝐕= + +
(𝟏 + 𝐘𝟏 ) (𝟏 + 𝐘𝟏 )(𝟏 + 𝐘𝟐 ) 𝟏 + 𝐘𝟏 𝟏 + 𝐘𝟐 (𝟏 + 𝐘𝟑 )

Current Yield is expressed in annualised terms and calculated on market


price.

Holding period Return = Current Interest Yield + Capital Gain Yield

If Coupon Rate = YTM, then Bond will trade at Par.


If Coupon Rate > YTM, then Bond will trade at Premium.
If Coupon Rate < YTM, then Bond will trade at Discount.
(This will be the case when Bond Value = Face Value)

Callable Bond is the one where the issuer has an option to call back and
retire the bonds before maturity date.

Puttable Bond is the one where the investor has an option to get the Bond
redeemed before maturity.

6. Portfolio Management
Variance:
𝐧 𝟐
Variance (Sd2) = 𝐢=𝟏[ 𝐗𝐢 − 𝐗 ∗ 𝐏𝐢 (𝐗 𝐢 )] Where,

Xi = Possible returns on security; X = Expected Value of security / Portfolio;


Pi(Xi) = Probability.

Covariance shows the relationship between two variables and is calculated


by the formula;

𝐑 𝐀 −𝐑̅𝐀 (𝐑 𝐁 −𝐑̅𝐁 )
CovAB =
𝐍

In case, if in the problem instead of just observations, if probabilities for


observations are also given, then,

CovAB = 𝐑 𝐀 − 𝐑̅𝐀 (𝐑 𝐁 − 𝐑̅𝐁 ) where

Page 17 of 32
RA = Return on security A;
R‾A = Expected or mean return of Security A;
RB = Return on security B;
R‾B = Expected or mean return of Security B.

Further, some people use N-1 as denominator instead of N.

Covariance between two securities may also be calculated by multiplying


respective betas and the variance of market.

𝐂𝐨𝐯𝐀𝐁 = βA βB sdm2

Covariance of 2 securities is +ve if the returns consistently move in same


direction.
Covariance of 2 securities is -ve if the returns consistently move in opposite
direction.
Covariance of 2 securities is zero, if their returns are independent of each
other.

The value of covariance will be between - ∞ and + ∞

Coefficient of correlation also indicates the relationship between two


variables. It is expressed by the formula:

𝐂𝐨𝐯𝐀𝐁
rAB = ⇨ 𝑪𝒐𝒗𝑨𝑩 = rAB 𝑺𝒅𝑨 𝑺𝒅𝑩 where
𝐒𝐝𝐀 𝐒𝐝𝐁

rAB = Coefficient of correlation between A & B;


CovAB = Covariance between securities A & B
SdA = Standard deviation of security A.
SdB = Standard deviation of security B

Correlation coefficients may range from -1 to 1.


A value of +1 indicates a perfect positive correlation between the two
securities returns and risk will be maximum.
A value of -1 indicates perfect negative correlation between the two
securities return and risk will be minimum; and
A value of zero indicates that the returns are independent.

The Variance of a Portfolio consists of 2 components (unlike the return of a


portfolio where weighted average of individual securities is taken):
a. Aggregate of the weighted variances of the respective securities and
b. Weighted covariances among different pairs of securities.

Page 18 of 32
Calculation of risk In case of only 2 securities, A & B in portfolio, then
Variance of portfolio is given by the formula

Sdp2 = [XA2 SdA2 + XB2 SdB2] +2 [XAXB (rAB 𝑺𝒅𝑨 𝑺𝒅𝑩 )]

Sdp2 = Variance of the portfolio;


XA = Proportion of funds invested in security A;
XB = Proportion of funds invested in security B;
SdA2 = Variance of security A;
SdB2 = Variance of security B;
SdA = Standard deviation of security A;
SdB = Standard deviation of security B, and
rAB = Correlation coefficient between the returns of A & B securities.

In case of perfect +ve correlation, coefficient of correlation, rAB = 1. So, the


variance of portfolio becomes:
Sdp = XA SdA + XB SdB
In case of perfect -ve correlation, coefficient of correlation, rAB = -1. So,
the variance of portfolio becomes:
Sdp = XA SdA - XB SdB
In case of perfect no correlation, rAB = 0. So, the variance of portfolio
becomes:
Sdp2 = XA2 SdA2 + XB2 SdB2 and

Sdp = [XA2 SdA2 + XB2 SdB2]1/2


Calculation of Risk of Portfolio with more than two securities:

𝒏 𝒏 𝒏 𝒏
Sdp2 = 𝒊=𝟏 𝒊=𝟏 𝑿𝒊 𝑿𝒋 𝑪𝒐𝒗𝒊𝒋 = 𝒊=𝟏 𝒊=𝟏 𝑿𝒊 𝑿𝒋 𝒓𝒊𝒋 𝑺𝒅𝒊 𝑺𝒅𝒋 where,

Sdp2 = Variance of Portfolio;


Xi = Proportion of funds invested in security i (the first of a pair of
securities).
Xj = Proportion of funds invested in security j (the second of a pair of
securities).
Covij = The Covariance between the pair of securities i and j;
𝑟𝑖𝑗 = Correlation Coefficient between securities i and j;
𝑆𝑑𝑖 = Stabdard deviation of Security i;
𝑆𝑑𝑗 = Stabdard deviation of Security j;
n = Total number of securities in the portfolio.

rim = coefficient of correlation between scrip i and the market index m;


rpm = coefficient of correlation between portfolio p and the market index m
sdi = standard deviation of returns of stock i;
sdm= standard deviation of returns of market index,
sd2m= the variance of market returns; and
sdp = standard deviation of returns of portfolio.

Regression Method: The general form of regression equation is:

𝛂 = 𝐘 − 𝛃𝐗 Where,

X = independent variable (market);


Y = dependent variable (security), and
α, β are constants. Beta is Systematic Risk and Alpha is the intercept on Y
axis.

Beta is calculated by the formula:

𝐧 𝐗𝐘−( 𝐗) ( 𝐘) 𝐗𝐘−𝐧 𝐗͞ 𝐘͞ 𝐗𝐘−( 𝐗) 𝐘͞


𝛃= = 𝟐 = where,
𝐧 𝐗 𝟐 − ( 𝐗)𝟐 𝐗 𝟐 − 𝐧 𝐗͞ 𝐗 𝟐 − ( 𝐗) 𝐗͞

n = number of items;
X = Independent variable (market);
Y = Dependent variable (security);
XY = product of dependent and independent variable;
X͞ & Y‾ are respective arithmetic means

Positive beta of security indicates that return on security is dependent on


market return and will be in the same direction as that of market;
Negative beta of security indicates that return on security is dependent
on market return and will be in the opposite direction as that of market;
Zero beta indicates return on security is independent of market return.

Portfolio beta, β = ∑ proportion of security × beta for security.

𝒏
Portfolio Beta, βp = 𝒊=𝟏 𝒙𝒊 β𝒊
βp = Beta of portfolio;

Page 20 of 32
xi = proportion of funds invested in each security;
βi = Beta of respective securities; and
n = number of securities.

Since beta is the relative return of a security vis a vis market return, it can
also be calculated by the formula:

𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧


𝛃=
𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧

Market Beta is taken as one unless otherwise given.

For Risk Free securities like GOI Bonds, T Bills etc. Beta is taken as ZERO
(unless otherwise given) implying non existence of Systematic Risk.

In case of change in capital structure, the company beta will not change but
only the components of debt beta and equity beta will change.

Hedge ratio is computed by the formula:

rsf = Correlation Coefficient between spot price and future price;
Sds = Standard Deviation of Changes in Spot Price; and
Sdf = Standard Deviation of Changes in Future Price.

Formula for Optimum proportion of investment in case of 2 securities i

Portfolio Return, rp = 𝒊=𝟏 𝒙𝒊 𝒓𝒊 Where

rp = expected return of portfolio;


xi = proportion of funds invested in each security;
ri = expected return on securities; and
n = number of securities.

To calculate return of individual security, following CAPM formula is used:

Ri = 𝜶 + 𝜷𝑹𝒎 = Rf + β (Rm – Rf) Where,

Ri = Return of individual security,

Page 21 of 32
Rm = Return on market index or Risk Premium
Rf = Risk Free rate
α = Return of the security when market is stationary
β = Change in return of individual security for unit change in return of
market index.

Security market line measures the relation between systematic risk and
expected return. Formula for Security Line is:

y = 𝜷x +𝜶 Where,

x is independent variable and y dependant variable.

Slope of Security line is Beta

On Return Basis:
Expected Return < CAPM Return; Sell, since stock is overvalued.
Expected Return > CAPM Return; Buy, since stock is undervalued
Expected Return = CAPM Return; Hold.

On Price Basis:
Actual Market Price < CAPM price, stock is undervalued; so Buy
Actual market Price > CAPM price, stock is overvalued; so, sell.
Actual market Price = CAPM price, stock is correctly valued.;
Point of indifference.

Characteristic Line: Characteristic line represents the relationship


between the returns of two securities or a security and market return over a
period of time.

Beta in case of Leverage:

𝜷𝒍 = 𝜷𝒖𝒍 [1 + (1 – T) D / E] = 𝜷𝒖𝒍 + 𝜷𝒖𝒍 𝟏 − 𝑻 𝑫/𝑬 Where,

βl = Leveraged β
βul= Unleveraged β
D = Debt; E = Equity, and T = Rate of Tax

Equity Beta will be always greater than debt beta as risk of equity holders is
greater than risk of debenture holders.

Risk free securities are Government Securities, T Bills, RBI Bonds etc.

Arbitrage Pricing Theory Model: Uses 4 factors Viz., Inflation and money
supply, Interest Rate, Industrial Production, and personal consumption.
Under this method, expected return on investment is:

E (Ri) = Rf + λ1βi1 + λ2 βi2 + λ3 βi3 + λ4 βi4 Where,

E(Ri) = Expected return on equity;


λ1, λ2, λ3, λ4 are average risk premium (Rm – Rf) for each of the four factors
in the model and βi1, βi2 , βi3 , βi4 are measures of sensitivity of the particular
security i to each of the four factors.

Sharpe Index Model assumes that co-movement between stocks is due to


change or movement in the market index. Return on security i, is calculated
by the formula;
R i = α i + β i R m +∈i where,

Ri = expected return on security i


αi = intercept of the straight line or alpha co-efficient
βi = slope of straight line or beta co-efficient
Rm = the rate of return on market index
€i = error term.

Alpha of a stock can be found by the above formula or alternatively by fitting


a straight line with coordinates (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) where x1, x2 and y1, y2
are the expected returns of the market and the security in any 2 periods.
Alpha is the value of intercept on Y Axis. Equation of the line in 2 point form
is given by the formula:
𝐲𝟐 − 𝐲𝟏
𝐲 − 𝐲𝟏 = (𝐱 − 𝐱𝟏 )
𝐱𝟐 − 𝐱 𝟏
Page 23 of 32
According to Sharpe, the return of stock can be divided into 2 components:
 Return due to market changes (systematic risk)and
 Return independent of market changes (unsystematic risk).
Total Risk = Systematic risk + Unsystematic Risk

Total variance (Sdi2) = Systematic risk (ßi2 X Sdm2) + Unsystematic risk

Formula for systematic risk is:

Systematic risk = ßi2 X Variance of market index = ßi2 X Sdm2

Unsystematic risk = Total Variance – Systematic risk

i.e. Unsystematic risk = Sdi2 - ßi2 X Sdm2

(Sdm = Standard deviation of Market index; ßi = Beta of security i; Sdi =


Standard deviation of security i)

When USR is given, Portfolio Variance is calculated by the formula:

𝟐
Sdp2 = [( 𝒏 𝟐
𝒊=𝟏 𝑿𝒊 𝜷𝒊 ) 𝑺𝒅𝒎 ] +[ 𝒏 𝟐 𝟐
𝒊=𝟏 𝑿𝒊 𝑼𝑺𝑹 ] Where,

Sdp2 = Variance of portfolio;


Xi = Proportion of the Stock in portfolio;
βi = Beta of the stock i in portfolio;
Sdm2 = Variance of the index;
USR = Unsystematic Risk.
Further, first part of the above formula is systematic risk of portfolio and
second part is unsystematic risk.

(Please note the difference between the above formula and the following
formula indicated elsewhere above. Sdp2 = [XA2 SdA2 + XB2 SdB2] +2 [XAXB (rAB 𝑺𝒅𝑨 𝑺𝒅𝑩 )].
This formula is used when 2 scrips are there and USR is not given)

Coefficient of Determination (r2) gives the percentage of variation in the


Security‟s return that is explained by the variation of the market index
return.

Systematic and Unsystematic risk can also be found by the formulas:

Systematic risk = variance of security X r2 = Sdi2 X r2

Unsystematic risk = variance of security (1 – r2) = Sdi2 (1 – r2)


Page 24 of 32
Where r2 = Coefficient of Determination.

Sharpe and Treynor ratios measure the Risk Premium per unit of Risk for
a security or a portfolio of securities for comparing different Securities or
Portfolios. Sharpe uses Variance as a measure whereas, Treynor uses Beta
as a mesure to compare the Securities or Portfolios.

Sharpe Ratio = (Ri – Rf)/Sdi and

Treynor Ratio = (Ri – Rf)/ βi Where,

Ri = Expected return on stock i


Rf = Return on a risk less asset
Sdi = Standard Deviation of the rates of return for the ith Security
βi = Expected change in the rate of return on stock i associated with one
unit change in the market return

The higher the ratio, the better it is.

Jensen’s Alpha: This is the difference between portfolio‟s return and CAPM
return.
Jensen Alpha = Portfolio Return – CAPM Return.

The higher the Jensen alpha, the better it is.

Sharpe’s Optimal Portfolio: Steps for finding out the stocks to be included
in the optimal portfolio are as below:

a. Find out the “excess return to beta” ratio for each stock under
consideration.
b. Rank them from the highest to the lowest.
c. Calculate Ci for all the stocks/portfolios according to the ranked order
using the following formula:

(𝑹𝒊 −𝑹𝒇 )𝜷𝒊


𝑺𝒅𝟐𝒎 𝒏
𝒊=𝟏 𝟐
Ci = 𝑼𝑺𝑹
𝜷𝟐
𝟏+𝑺𝒅𝟐𝒎 𝒏 𝒊
𝒊=𝟏𝑼𝑺𝑹𝟐
Where,
𝑺𝒅𝟐𝒎 = Variance of the index;
Ri = Expected return on stock i
Rf = Return on a risk less asset
βi = Expected change in the rate of return on stock i associated with
one unit change in the market return

Page 25 of 32
USR = Unsystematic Risk i.e., variance of stock movement not related
to index movement.
d. Compute the cut-off point which the highest value of Ci and is taken as
C*. The stock whose excess-return to risk ratio is above the cut-off
ratio are selected and all whose ratios are below are rejected.
e. Calculate the percent to be invested in each security by using the
following formula:

Constant Proportion Portfolio Insurance Policy (CPPI), is a method


where the portfolio is frequently reviewed to ensure the investments in
shares is maintained as per the following formula:

Investment in shares = m(Portfolio value – Floor Value)


Floor Value is the value which market expects and m is a constant factor.

When market is raising, more amounts will be invested in Market by


withdrawing from fixed income securities and vice vcersa.

Run Test: If a series of stock price changes are considered, each price
change is designated + if it represents an increase and – if it represents a
decrease.

A run occurs when there is no difference between the sign of two changes.
When the sign of change differs, the run ends and new run begins.
Price Incr. / Decr. +,+,+,-,-,+,-,+,-,-,+,+,+,-,+,+,+,+
Run 1 2 345 6 7 8 9

Run Test is performed as per the following procedure:

First, number of runs r is calculated.


Secondly, N+ & N- are calculated. These are the number of +ve & -ve
signs in the sample.
Thirdly, N is calculated. N = N+ + N- = Total observations – 1
Fourthly, As per Null hypothesis, the number of runs in a sequence of N
elements as random variable whose conditional distribution is given by
observations of N+ and N- is approximately normal with Mean µ which is
calculated as

Page 26 of 32
𝟐 𝐍+ 𝐍−
µ= + 𝟏
𝐍
Fifthly, Standard deviation, σ is calculated by the formula:
µ − 𝟏 (µ − 𝟐)
𝛔=
𝐍−𝟏
Sixthly, If the sample size is N, then it will have (N - 1) degrees of
freedom. For this particular degrees of freedom, and the given level of
significance, using the value „t‟ from t-table, Upper and Lower limits are
found by the formula:
Upper / Lower Limit = µ ± t * 𝛔
Lastly, If the value of r falls within the upper and lower limits, it is called
weak form of efficiency, and if it falls outside the limits, it is called strong
form of efficiency.

Efficient Market Theory is based on the Usage of Available Information by


Investors to optimise their value of Holdings. The 3 forms of Efficiency are:

Weak Form of Efficiency: Market Price is reflected only by historical / past


information.

Semi Strong Form of Efficiency: Market Price is reflected by both Past


and Public information.

Strong Form of Efficiency: Market Price is reflected by Past , Public as well


as Private Information .

European Terms are the rates quoted in foreign currency per unit of USD.

In a Direct Quote Premium / Discount is calculated by the formula:

Premium / Discount = [Forward (F) – Spot (S)] / Spot (S) X (12 / n) X 100

In an Indirect Quote it is calculated by the formula:

Premium / Discount = [Spot (S) – Forward (F)] / Forward (F) X (12 / n) X 100

Where n is number of months.

Interest Parity Equation:


1 + rd = (F / S) * (1 + rf) where,

rd = Domestic rate of interest, F = one unit of foreign currency, S = Spot


rate and rf = foreign rate of interest.
