Amber invested in RBC Allocation Fund. The asset allocation strategy employed by the fund requires the fund manager to adjust the mix of asset classes to suit market conditions. Amber purchased 1,000 units of RBC at a price of $20 per unit at the beginning of the 2016 and paid a front-end load of 4%. The securities in which the fund invests are expected to increase in value by 12% during the year. The fund's expense ratio is 1.2% and the management fee is 0.7%. The fund had average daily assets of $2.2 billion at the beginning of the year and sold $400 million worth of shares and purchased $500 million shares during the year. 1) Solve Amber's rate of return on the fund if she were to sell her investment at the end of the 2016. 2) Calculate the turnover ratio of the fund. 3) Other administrative expenses paid by Amber?

You pay $21,600 to the Laramie Fund, which has an NAV of $18 per share at the beginning of the year. The fund deducted a front-end load of 4% at the time of the purchase. The securities in the fund then increased in value by 10% during the year. The fund's expense ratio is 1.3% and is deducted from year-end asset values. What is your rate of return on the fund if you sell your shares at the end of the year? Select the answer closest to the correct return. (Hint: The formula on slide #23 in the "Mutual Funds, ETFs, ..." slide set solves for the gross return. Your rate of return would be the gross return minus 1. The formula on slide # 23 can be written as X(1-f)(1+r-a)" (1-b) Gross Return = (1 - f)(1+r-a)" (1-b) or as Gross Return = X where X is the dollar amount invested. The other variables in the formula (f, r, a, n, b) are all defined in the slide set and in the lecture.) 4.2% 10% 8.7% O 4.7%
A closed-end fund starts the year with a net asset value of $12.00. By year-end, NAV equals $12.70. At the beginning of the year, the fund was selling at a 4% premium to NAV.
