Variance
Variance of returnsa measure of the dispersion of the distribution of possible returns.

Variance Definition
Measures of dispersion are descriptive statistics that describe how similar a set of scores are to each other The more similar the scores are to each other, the lower the measure of dispersion will be The less similar the scores are to each other, the higher the measure of dispersion will be In general, the more spread out a distribution is, the larger the measure of dispersion will be

Measures of Dispersion
Which of the distributions of scores has the larger dispersion?

125 100 75 50 25 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

125 100 75 50 25 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Measures of Dispersion
Which of the distributions of scores has the larger dispersion?

125

125 100 75 50 25 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

100 75 50 25 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

The Left distribution has more dispersion because the scores are more spread out That is, they are less similar to each other
11

Measures of Dispersion

12

Variance
Variance is defined as the average of the square deviations:

( X ) =
N

2 is the population variance, X is a score, is the population mean, and N is the number of scores

13

What Does the Variance Formula Mean?


First, it says to subtract the mean from each of the scores This difference is called a deviate or a deviation score The deviate tells us how far a given score is from the typical, or average, score Thus, the deviate is a measure of dispersion for a given score
14

What Does the Variance Formula Mean?


Why cant we simply take the average of the deviates? That is, why isnt variance defined as:

( X )
N
This is not the formula for variance!
15

What Does the Variance Formula Mean?


One of the definitions of the mean was that it always made the sum of the scores minus the mean equal to 0 Thus, the average of the deviates must be 0 since the sum of the deviates must equal 0 To avoid this problem, statisticians square the deviate score prior to averaging them Squaring the deviate score makes all the squared scores positive

16

What Does the Variance Formula Mean?


Variance is the mean of the squared deviation scores The larger the variance is, the more the scores deviate, on average, away from the mean The smaller the variance is, the less the scores deviate, on average, from the mean

17

Standard Deviation
When the deviate scores are squared in variance, their unit of measure is squared as well E.g. If peoples weights are measured in pounds, then the variance of the weights would be expressed in pounds2 (or squared pounds) Since squared units of measure are often awkward to deal with, the square root of variance is often used instead The standard deviation is the square root of variance
18

Standard Deviation

Standard deviation = variance Variance = standard deviation2

19

Computational Formula
When calculating variance, it is often easier to use a computational formula which is algebraically equivalent to the definitional formula:

X) ( N N

( ) X =
N

2 is the population variance, X is a score, is the population mean, and N is the number of scores

20

Computational Formula Example


X 9 8 6 5 8 6 = 42 X2 81 64 36 25 64 36 = 306 X- 2 1 -1 -2 1 -1 =0 (X- ) 4 1 1 4 1 1

Portfolios

Copyright 2004 McGraw-Hill Australia Pty Ltd PPTs t/a Fundamentals of Corporate Finance 3e Ross, Thompson, Christensen, Westerfield and Jordan Slides edited by HD Quan

11-28

Portfolios
A portfolio is a collection of assets. An assets risk and return is important in how it

affects the risk and return of the portfolio.


The riskreturn trade-off for a portfolio is measured

by the portfolios expected return and standard deviation, just as with individual assets.

Copyright 2004 McGraw-Hill Australia Pty Ltd PPTs t/a Fundamentals of Corporate Finance 3e Ross, Thompson, Christensen, Westerfield and Jordan Slides edited by HD Quan

11-29

Portfolio Expected Returns


The expected return of a portfolio is the weighted

average of the expected returns for each asset in the portfolio. E(Rp) = wjE (Rj)
j =1 m

You can also find the expected return by finding

the portfolio return in each possible state and computing the expected value as we did with individual securities.

Announcements, Surprises and Expected Returns

Key Issues What are the components of the total return? What are the different types of risk? Expected and Unexpected Returns Total return (R) = expected return (E(R))+ unexpected return (U) Corporate Announcements and News Announcement = expected part + surprise It is the surprise component that affects a stocks price and, therefore, its return.

RISKS

Copyright 2004 McGraw-Hill Australia Pty Ltd PPTs t/a Fundamentals of Corporate Finance 3e Ross, Thompson, Christensen, Westerfield and Jordan Slides edited by HD Quan

11-38

Risks
Systematic risk: that component of total risk which is due to economy-wide factors. Unsystematic risk: that component of total risk which is unique to an asset or firm.

Total return = Expected return + Unexpected return R = E ( R) + U = E ( R ) + systemic portion + non - systemic portion

11-40

Diversification
The process of spreading investments across

different assets, industries and countries to reduce risk.


Total risk = systemic risk + non-systemic risk Non-systemic

risk can be eliminated by diversification; systemic risk affects all assets and cannot be diversified away.

Copyright 2004 McGraw-Hill Australia Pty Ltd PPTs t/a Fundamentals of Corporate Finance 3e Ross, Thompson, Christensen, Westerfield and Jordan Slides edited by HD Quan

11-41

The Principle of Diversification


Diversification can substantially reduce the

variability of returns without an equivalent reduction in expected returns.


This reduction in risk arises because worse than

expected returns from one asset are offset by better than expected returns from another.
However, there is a minimum level of risk that

cannot be diversified away and that is the systemic portion.

11-43

Systemic Risk

The systemic risk principle states that the expected return on a risky asset depends only on the assets systemic risk. The amount of systemic risk in an asset relative to an average risky asset is measured by the beta coefficient. Std Deviation Security A Security B 30% 10% Beta 0.6 1.2

Security A has greater total risk but less systemic risk (more non-systemic risk) than Security B.

11-44

Measuring Systemic Risk


What does beta tell us?

A beta of 1 implies the asset has the same systemic risk as the overall market.

A beta < 1 implies the asset has less systemic risk than the overall market. A beta > 1 implies the asset has more systemic risk than the overall market.

Assume you wish to hold a portfolio consisting of asset A and a riskless asset. Given the following information, calculate portfolio expected returns and portfolio betas, letting the proportion of funds invested in asset A range from 0 to 125 per cent. Asset A has a beta of 1.2 and an expected return of 18 per cent. The risk-free rate is 7 per cent. Asset A weights: 0 per cent, 25 per cent, 50 per cent, 75 per cent, 100 per cent and 125 per cent.

Return, Risk and Equilibrium

Key issues: What is the relationship between risk and return? What does security market equilibrium look like? The ratio of the risk premium to beta is the same for every asset. In other words, the reward-to-risk ratio for the market is constant and equal to:

11-51

ExampleAsset Pricing
Asset A has an expected return of 12 per cent and a beta of 1.40. Asset B has an expected return of 8 per cent and a beta of 0.80. Are these two assets valued correctly relative to each other if the risk-free rate is 5 per cent? Using reward/risk ratio:

0.12 0.05 A: = 0.05 1.40 0.08 0.05 B: = 0.0375 0.80


Asset B offers insufficient return for its level of risk relative to A. Bs price is too high; therefore, it is overvalued (or A is undervalued).

The security market line (SML) is the

representation of market equilibrium.


The slope of the SML is the reward-to-risk ratio:

But since the beta for the market is ALWAYS equal

to one, the slope can be rewritten.
