chap 06 risks & returns from investing

risk and return overview & Background n Investing involves decisions for the future n Key variable with future = Uncertainty Expected Returns is basis of Investments Biggest Threat: UNCERTAINTY = RISK Uncertainty represents RISK conceptually Investors must estimate & manage Risk & Return are opposite sides of the same coin n R&R involve a trade-off with each other n n n

returns Objective of Investors ?

returns Objective of Investors n To maximize expected returns n Constraint: risk

returns Components of investment returns ?

returns Components of investment returns n Yield Income component of a security’s return from cash flows Relates the C/F’s to the price of the security n Capital gain (loss) Change in price of a security over time

returns Components of investment returns Total Return = Yield + Price Change (CG) Yield can be 0 or + CG can be 0, + or -

returns Examples of components n A Bond purchased at par held to maturity: ? n A Bond purchased for $800 & held till maturity? n A non-dividend stock? n A dividend paying stock?

returns Examples of components n A Bond purchased at par held to maturity? Yield only n A Bond purchased for $800 & held till maturity? Y+PG n A non-dividend stock? PG only n A dividend paying stock? Y+PG

what is risk?

what is risk? n UNCERTAINTY OF FUTURE OUTCOMES n Definition of Risk: Risk is the Probability (chance) the ACTUAL OUTCOME will be different from the EXPECTED OUTCOME. n Which outcome are we discussing? Specifically, investors are worried the actual outcome (of returns from their investments) will be less than the expected returns.

finance involves future time Decision RISK of deviation UNCERTAINTY Expected Outcome 1, 2…n (return) T= Future T=0 Risk Calculation is based on Historical Data T=-n T=0

what are the sources of risk? an overview n Price risk n Interest Rate risk n Market risk n Inflation risk n Business risk

what are the sources of risk? an overview n n n Price risk Variability in security’s returns due to price fluctuations Interest Rate risk Variability in ER due to changes in interest rates Market risk Variability in ER due to changes in overall market Inflation risk Variability in ER due to changes in purchasing power Business risk Variability in ER due to exposure to a particular industry

what are the sources of risk? an overview n n n Liquidity risk Variability in ER due to inability to trade in secondary markets. Time & price concession required to sell securities Exchange rate risk Variability in ER due to currency fluctuations. Country risk (political risk) Variability in ER due to instability of the political system.

financial risk Effects of Financial Leverage? . . n Financial Leverage refers to the extent to which a firm relies on Debt. n More Debt means MORE leverage n The larger the proportion of assets financed by debt, the larger the variability in returns, other things being equal.

financial risk - example n We consider case of company X which has no debt & is considering restructuring to include debt in its capital structure. n We look at DEBT & NO DEBT situations n Taxes are ignored

financial risk - example Current Assets Proposed $8, 000, 000 0 4, 000 8, 000 4, 000 0 1 Share Price 20 20 # of Shares 400, 000 200, 000 10% Debt Equity Debt-Equity Ratio Interest Rate

financial risk - example Current Capital Structure: No Debt Recession EBIT Normal Expansion $500, 000 $1, 500, 000 Interest ? ? ? Net Income ? ? ? ROE ? ? ? EPS ? ? ?

financial risk - example Current Capital Structure: No Debt Recession EBIT Normal Expansion $500, 000 $1, 500, 000 0 500, 000 1, 500, 000 ROE 6. 25% 12. 5% 18. 75% EPS 1. 25 2. 50 3. 75 Interest Net Income

financial risk - example Proposed Capital Structure: Debt - $4 Million Recession EBIT Normal Expansion $500, 000 $1, 500, 000 Interest ? ? ? Net Income ? ? ? ROE ? ? ? EPS ? ? ?

financial risk - example Proposed Capital Structure: Debt - $4 Million Recession EBIT Normal Expansion $500, 000 $1, 500, 000 Interest 400, 000 Net Income 100, 000 600, 000 1, 100, 000 ROE 2. 50% 15. 50% 27. 50% EPS 0. 50 3. 00 5. 50

measuring returns n Total return n Return relative n Cumulative wealth index n Inflation adjusted returns

total return The Total Return for a given time period is a decimal number (or a percentage) relating all the cash flows received by an investor during designated time period to the purchase price of the Asset. TR = Any Cash Payment Received + Price change over time period Price at which the Asset is Purchased Or TR = CFt + (P. e – P. b) PB = CFT + PC PB

total return - advantages 1. It is all inclusive 2. Allows comparison b/w different assets 3. Includes realized & unrealized gains

total return - example Suppose you purchase a 10% coupon Bond at $960. After a year you sell it for $1020. What is the TR?

total return - example Suppose you purchase a 10% coupon Bond at $960. After a year you sell it for $1020. What is the Total Return? TR = {100 + (1020 -960)} / 960 = {100 + 60 }/ 960 = 0. 1667 or 16. 67%

total return - example Suppose you purchase 100 shares of JNJ at $30 per share. After a year you sell for $26. A dividend of $2 is paid during the year. What is the TR?

total return - example Suppose you purchase 100 shares of JNJ at $30 per share. After a year you sell for $26. A dividend of $2 is paid during the year. What is the TR? TR = {2 + (26 -30)}/ 30 = {2 + (-4)} / 30 = -0. 0667 or (6. 67%)

return relative Total return of an investment for a given period expressed on a base of 1. 0 Why? To calculate cumulative wealth index OR geometric means, both of which cannot use negative returns. RR = TR in decimal + 1. 0 = {C + PE}/PB Or, TR = RR – 1. 0

return relative - example If the TR is 10% & -9. 07% then, What is the RR?

return relative - example If the TR is 10% & -9. 07% then, What is the RR? CASE 1: TR = 10% RR = TR + 1 = 0. 1 + 1 = 1. 1 Case 2: TR= -9. 07% RR = TR + 1 = -. 0907 + 1 = 0. 9093

return relative - example If Dividend paid is 13. 79 & the security price is 615. 93. One year earlier it was 459. 27, What is the RR?

return relative - example If Dividend paid is 13. 79 & the security price is 615. 93. One year earlier it was 459. 27, What is the RR? RR = (615. 93 + 13. 79) / 459. 27 = 1. 3711

cumulative wealth index Cumulative wealth index measures the cumulative effect of returns over time, given some stated beginning dollar amount invested, which typically is shown as $1 for convenience. WHY? n n TR tracks changes in wealth, CWI measures LEVELS of wealth, rather than changes. Measures ending wealth (cumulative wealth) over some period on the base of beginning $ 1.

cumulative wealth index CWI = WI 0(1+TR 1)(1+TR 2) … (1 + TRN) where, CWI WI 0 TRN = end of period wealth = beginning index value usually $1 = Periodic TR’s in decimal form

cumulative wealth index example Values & Total Returns for S&P 500 for past few years were as follows: Values Total Return 1990: 330. 22 -3. 14% 1991: 417. 09 30% 1992: 435. 71 7. 43% 1993: 466. 45 9. 94% What is the CWI?

cumulative wealth index example Values & Total Returns for S&P 500 for past few years were as follows: Values Total Return 1990: 330. 22 -3. 14% 1991: 417. 09 30% 1992: 435. 71 7. 43% 1993: 466. 45 9. 94% What is the CWI? CWI = 1(. 969)(1. 3)(1. 0743)(1. 0994) = 1. 4878

cumulative wealth & total return TRN = (CWIN / CWI N-1) – 1 Where, TRN = Total Return for period N CWIN-1 = Cumulative Wealth Index at period N - 1 CWIN = Cumulative Wealth Index at period N

cumulative wealth & total return - example Suppose CWI in 2005 = 1. 4878 & CWI in 2006 = 2. 5787, what’s the TR in year 2006?

cumulative wealth & total return - example Suppose CWI in 2005 = 1. 4878 & CWI in 2006 = 2. 5787, what’s the TR in year 2006? TR 2006 = (2. 5787/1. 4878) – 1 = 1. 7332 – 1 = 73. 32%

international returns & currency risk Currency Risk is the Risk that the change in the value of the domestic & the foreign Currency involved will be unfavorable. When investors buy & sell assets in other countries, they must consider exchange rate or Currency Risk. Why?

international returns & currency risk When investors buy & sell assets in other countries, they must consider exchange rate or Currency Risk. Why? When investors invest in Assets denominated in Foreign currency, they are actually investing in two Assets: 1. Financial security in Foreign Country 2. Foreign Currency Thus, They need to be concerned with the Risks & Returns of both Assets!

currency adjusted returns 1. 2. As investors have invested in two Assets, their Total Return will also comprise of the returns that they are able to earn on both investments: Return on Foreign Asset Return on Foreign Currency

currency adjusted returns 1. 2. As investors have invested in two Assets, their Total Return will also comprise of the returns that they are able to earn on both investments: Return on Foreign Asset Return on Foreign Currency Thus, TR in Domestic terms = Return earned on Foreign Asset Return earned on Foreign Currency Investment +

currency adjusted returns Thus, TR in Domestic terms (Approximately) = [{CFT + (PE – PB)}/PB] Plus {Change in Foreign Currency Beginning Value of Foreign Currency}] Where, Foreign Currency is stated in DC/FC Units

currency adjusted returns Or, Total Return in Domestic Terms (Exactly) = {RR earned on Foreign Asset Multiplied by (Ending Value of Foreign Currency/ Beginning Value of Foreign Currency)} Minus 1

currency adjusted returns example An investor in Pakistan invests in Walmart at $50 when exchange rate was Rs. 60/$. One year later, Walmart is $55 & there is no dividend. The Exchange rate is now Rs. 57/$. Calculate Approximate Total Return for a Pakistani investor?

currency adjusted returns example An investor in Pakistan invests in Walmart at $50 when exchange rate was Rs. 60/$. One year later, Walmart is $55 & there is no dividend. The Exchange rate is now Rs. 57/$. Calculate Approximate Total Return for a Pakistani investor? TR = Return on Walmart + Return on FC Return on Walmart = (55 – 50)/50 = 10% Return on FC = (57 – 60)/60 = -5% TR = 10% + (-5%) = 5%

currency adjusted returns example An investor in Canada invests in Walmart (US Co. ) at $35 when exchange rate was US$ 1. 27/C$. One year later, Walmart is $45 & there was $5 dividend. The Exchange rate is now US$ 1. 77/C$. Calculate Approximate Total Return for a Canadian investor?

currency adjusted returns example An investor in Canada invests in Walmart (US Co. ) at $35 when exchange rate was US$ 1. 27/C$. One year later, Walmart is $45 & there was $5 dividend. The Exchange rate is now US$ 1. 77/C$. Calculate Approximate Total Return for a Canadian investor? TR = Return on Walmart + Return on FC Return on Walmart = (45 – 35+5)/35 = 42. 86% Return on FC = (0. 5650 – 0. 7874)/0. 7874 = -28. 24% TR = 42. 86% + (-28. 24%) = 14. 61%

currency adjusted returns example An investor in Canada invests in Walmart (US Co. ) at $35 when exchange rate was Pak Re 60/US$ & Pak Re 75/C$. One year later, Walmart is $45 & there was $5 dividend. The Exchange rate is now Pak Re 65/US$ & Pak Re 75/C$. Calculate Approximate Total Return for a Canadian investor?

currency adjusted returns example An investor in Canada invests in Walmart (US Co. ) at $35 when exchange rate was Pak Re 60/US$ & Pak Re 75/C$. One year later, Walmart is $45 & there was $5 dividend. The Exchange rate is now Pak Re 65/US$ & Pak Re 75/C$. Calculate Approximate Total Return for a Canadian investor? TR = Return on Walmart + Return on FC Return on Walmart = (45 – 35+5)/35 = 42. 86% Return on FC = (0. 8667 – 0. 80)/0. 80 = 8. 34% TR = 42. 86% + 8. 34% = 51. 2%

summary statistics for returns Investment analysis needs statistics that are used to describe a series of returns. Two such Measures include: 1. 2. Arithmetic Mean Geometric Mean

arithmetic mean Arithmetic Mean = X X = Sum of all Values Number of Observations n n Arithmetic Mean is a better measure of performance over single periods. It is the best estimate of the expected return for next period.

geometric mean When percentage changes in value over time are involved, as a result of compounding, Geometric mean is needed to describe accurately the true average return over multiple periods. G = [(1+TR 1)(1+TR 2) …. (1+TRN)]1/N – 1 The Geometric Mean Returns measures the compound growth of returns over time (Multiple periods).

arithmetic mean vs geometric mean - example Calculate Geometric & Arithmetic Mean using following data: Year Stock 1 1 10% 2 15% 3 -5% 4 7% 5 10% 6 -5%

arithmetic mean vs geometric mean - example Arithmetic Mean = (10 + 15 – 5 +7 + 10 – 5)/6 = 5. 33% Geometric Mean =[(1+0. 1)(1+. 15)(1+(0. 05))(1+0. 07)(1+. 10)(1+(-0. 05) ] 1/6 – 1 = 5. 05%

inflation adjusted returns n Nominal Returns n Real Returns

inflation adjusted returns Nominal Returns Quoted money returns without inflation adjustments NOTE: Purchasing power is not adjusted or expressed Real Returns Inflation adjusted returns Nominal returns adjusted for inflation. Real Return = [(1+ TR)/(1+IF)] – 1 IF = inflation rate

inflation adjusted returns example Suppose the nominal return on a stock is 28. 5731% and the inflation rate is 1. 6119%. What is the real return (Inflation adjusted Return)?

inflation adjusted returns example Suppose the nominal return on a stock is 28. 5731% and the inflation rate is 1. 6119%. What is the real return (Inflation adjusted Return)? Real Return = (1. 2857/1. 0161) - 1 = 1. 2653 – 1 = 26. 53%

how do we measure risk? n n The risk for one security can be calculated using the standard deviation measure. Why? Std deviation is the measure of dispersion of a data set. So, in terms of returns, std deviation actually represents RISK of that investment. The standard deviation is a reliable measure of variability The standard deviation is a measure of the total risk of an asset or portfolio.

variance of return where N is the number of returns Standard deviation of return

measuring risk- example Year Stock 1 1 10% 2 15% 3 -5% 4 7% 5 10% 6 -5%

measuring risk- example Step 1: Calculate Expected Return Exp. Return = Average of Past Returns = 32/6 = 5. 33% Year Stock 1 1 10% 2 15% 3 -5% 4 7% 5 10% 6 -5%

measuring risk- example Year Stock 1 (X – X)2 1 10% 4. 67 21. 81 2 15% 9. 67 93. 51 3 -5% -10. 33 106. 71 4 7% 1. 67 2. 79 5 10% 4. 67 21. 81 6 -5% -10. 33 106. 71 Sum of (X – X)2= 353. 34 Variance = 353. 34/5 = 70. 66 Standard Deviation= (70. 66)1/2= 8. 41%

how do we use this information regarding risk? analytical development In Finance, decision rules are based on benchmark or alternative comparisons. Consider the statement: n A: An investment (IND: X) has an ER of 35% with standard deviation of 30%

Consider the statement: n A: An investment (IND: X) has an ER of 35% with standard deviation of 30% n B: An investment (IND: X) has an ER of 35% with standard dev of 15% n C: Investment A & B has an industry AR of 50% with standard dev of 15%. Given the alternatives, both A & B are inferior. n Therefore, one question you must always ask regarding risk is “what are the alternatives or benchmarks to compare with? ”

risk premiums A risk premium is the additional return investors expect to receive by taking on increasing amounts of risk for example Time Premium, Default Premium, Equity Risk Premium. ERP = [(1+TR common stock) / (1+RF)] – 1

risk premiums - example Common stocks had a return of 10. 0466% over past 10 years. T-bills had a return of 4. 0358% over the same period. What is the historical Equity Risk Premium?
