I hope you can use the above data as an example to give a detailed calculation process

2. Calculate the monthly realised returns for your stocks and market index. [3 marks] Instructions! a. We learnt in Lecture 4 that realised return at t can be calculated as Rt = Pt-Pt-1 + Div Pe-1 b. As you are using prices adjusted for dividends, you do not need to consider a dividend component in return calculation. c. In the spreadsheet produced above, three additional columns should be created for computing monthly realised returns for your two stocks and the market index. Monthly returns should be available from 01/09/2016 as you don't have price data on 01/07/2016 for the calculation of returns for 01/08/2016. d. In the end, 60 individual monthly returns should be generated for your stocks and for the market index.
