Q13.5 Find five actively traded stocks and record their prices at the start and the end of the most recent calendar year. Also, find the amount of dividends paid on each stock during that year and each stock's beta at the end of the year. Assume that the five stocks were held during the year in an equal-dollar-weighted portfolio (20% in each stock) created at the start of the year. Also find the current risk-free rate, r6, and the market return, 7m, for the given year. Assume that the standard deviation for the portfolio of the five stocks is 14.25% and that the standard deviation for the market portfolio is 10.80%. a. Use the following formula to find the portfolio return, rp, for the year under consideration: Return on portfolio Proportion of portfolio's total Return dollar value X on asset invested in asset 1 + 21 Proportion of portfolio's total dollar value X invested in asset 2 Return on asset 2 ++ Proportion of Proportion of portfolio's total portfolio's total Return dollar value X on asset = dollar value invested in invested in asset n asset j b. Calculate Sharpe's measure for both the portfolio and the market. Compare and discuss these values. On the basis of this measure, is the portfolio's performance inferior or superior? Explain. Return X on asset c. Calculate Treynor's measure for both the portfolio and the market. Compare and discuss these values. On the basis of this measure, is the portfolio's performance inferior or superior? Explain.
