Formulas and Ratios Flashcards
V = D1 / (r-g)
V = value of a dividend-paying security with constant dividend growth
D1 = next year’s dividend
r = req rate of return
g = div growth rate
r = D1 / P + g
r = expected rate of return
D1 = next year’s dividend
g = div growth rate
COVij=(ρij)(σi)(σj)
COVij = a measurement of the behavior of one security as a direct result of another
ρij = correlation between securities i and j
σi = std dev of security i
σj = std dev of security j
σp=√[(Wi)^2 (σ1)^2+(Wj)^2 (σj)^2 + (2WiWjCOVij)]
σp = standard dev of a 2 asset portfolio
Wi = weight of stock ‘i’
Wj = weight of stock ‘j’
σi = standard deviation of stock ‘i’
σj = standard deviation of stock ‘j’
COVij = covariance between ‘i’ and ‘j’
βi=(COVim)/(σm)^2=(Pim)(σi)/(σm)
βi = beta, provides risk as a measure of volatility relative to that of the market
σi = standard deviation of the individual security
ρim= correlation between an individual security and the market
COVim= covariance between an individual security and the market
σm = standard deviation of the market

σr = √[(∑(rt−rbar)^2) / n]
σr = standard deviation (population) of results from the expected return
Σ = summation of all terms
n = number of periods being considered
rt = actual return
rbar = average return
Sr = √ [(∑(rt−rbar)^2) / (n−1)]
Sr = standard deviation (sample) of results from the expected return
Σ = summation of all terms
n = number of periods being considered
rt = actual return
rbar = average return
ri = rf + (rm−rf)βi
ri = CAPM - Capital Asset Pricing Model, used to determine a theoretically appropriate required rate of return of an asset
rf = risk-free rate (T-Bill)
rm = return of the market
βi = beta of the security
αp = rp − [rf + (rm−rf)βp]
αp = Jensen’s Performance Index, Alpha, measures the difference of return from the amount required by investors
rp = return of the portfolio
rf = risk-free rate of return
rm = return of the market
βp = Beta of the portfolio
Tp = (rp − rf) / βp
Tp = Treynor Index
rp = return of the portfolio
rf = risk free rate of return
βp = beta of the portfolio
D = (1+y)/y − [(1+y) + t(c−y)] / [c[(1+y)^t−1]+y]
Duration = the length of time the discounted cash flow of a bond remains outstanding
c = rate of interest paid on the coupon
t = number of periods to maturity
y = Yield to Maturity (as a %)
ΔP/P = −D[Δy/(1+y)]
ΔP = the dollar change in price
P = price of a bond
ΔP/P= % price change of bond
(-D) = the duration in terms of years used as a negative value
∆y = the % change in interest rates. If they go down this number should be negative
1+y = 1 + yield to maturity
IR = (Rp−RB) / σA
IR = Information Ratio, which measures the return above a benchmark divided by std. dev.
RP = return of a portfolio
RB = return of a benchmark
σA = tracking error of active return
EAR = (1 + i/n)^n − 1
EAR = Effective Annual Rate
i = interest rate
n = number of periods
TEY = r / (1−t)
TEY = Tax Equivalent Yield, which provides the return that is required on a taxable investment to make it equal to the return on a tax-exempt investment
r = nominal rate of return
t = investor’s marginal tax rate (as a decimal)
AM = (a1+a2+a3+…+an) / n
AM = Arithmetic Mean, or the average
a = rate of return for given period
n = number of periods
SP = (rp−rf) / σp
Sp = Sharpe Index / Ratio, which measures the risk-adjusted performance of a portfolio in terms of std dev
rp = return of the portfolio
rf = risk free rate of return
σp = standard deviation of the portfolio being measured
HPR = [(1+r1)×(1+r2)×…(1+rn)]−1
HPR = Holding period return, which provides the total return from holding an asset over a period of time
r = rate of return for given period
n = number of periods
√[(1+r1) × (1+r2) × …(1+rn)] − 1
Geometric Mean = the central number in a geometric progression, also calculable as the nth root of a product of n number
r = rate of return for given period
n = rate of return for given period
