| 5.. Consider the two (excess return) index-model regression results for stocks A and B. The riskfree rate over the period was 8%, and the markets average return was 16%. Performance is measured using an index model regression on excess returns. |
| Stock A | Stock B | ||||||||||
| Index model regression estimates | 1% + 1.2(rM rf) | 2% + .8(rM rf) | |||||||||
| R-square | 0.677 | 0.487 | |||||||||
| Residual standard deviation, (e) | 12% | 20.8% | |||||||||
| Standard deviation of excess returns | 23.3% | 28.3% | |||||||||
| Calculate the following statistics for each stock: (Round your answer to 4 decimal places. Omit the "%" sign in your response.) |
| Stock A | Stock B | ||||||||||
| i. | Alpha | 1 | % | 2 | % | ||||||
| ii. | Information ratio | ______? | ______? | ||||||||
| iii. | Sharpe measure | ______? | ______? | ||||||||
| iv. | Treynor measure | 8.8330 | 10.500 | ||||||||
(((NUMBERS BELOW ARE NOT THE CORRECT ANSWERS)))
Information Ratio = Alpha/Standard deviation residual
For stock A, = 1/10.3 = 0.0971 For stock B, = 2/19.1 = 0.1047
Sharpe Measure = Excess returns / Standard deviation of excess returns
For stock A, = (1+1.2*(16-8))/21.6 = 0.4907 For stock B, = (2+0.8*(16-8))/24.9 = 0.3373
