Which of the following statements describing the elements of intrinsic valuation is most accurate? a. A simple calculation of present values of expected cashflows of different investments using the risk free rate would be enough to determine which asset is best. b. The risk-free rate is the lowest rate that an investor can earn from short-term investments.c. When the present value of the cashflows is discounted with the appropriate rate end this present value is positive, then the asset providing these cashflows have a value to the investor. d.Cashflows may include depreciatipon expenses and amortization costs.
The profitability index is another method to evaluate capital investments. If you are trying to compare investments of different sizes, why is the profitability index a better way to do this when compared to the net present value method?
According to the capital asset pricing model, assets with Lower; lower; unsystematic Higher; higher, unsystematic Lower; higher; unsystematic Higher; higher; systematic Higher; lower; systematic betas have expected returns because betas quantify the degree of risk. Please fill in the blank.
Question 1 Are the following statements true or false? Provide a short justification for your answer. (You are evaluated on your justification.) Remember that a statement is false if any part of the statement is false. A single correct counterexample is sufficient to show that a statement is false. a) assets A, B, C, with expected returns and standard deviations: Suppose you are a mean-variance optimizer. The risk-free rate is 3%. There are three risky E [řa] = 10%, SD [FA] = 5% E [řB] = 15%, SD [řB] = 7% E [řc] = 12%, SD [řc] = 9% You cannot invest in all three risky assets. Instead, you have to choose whether to invest in only assets (A, B), or only assets (A, C). Asset B mean-variance dominates asset C, since it has higher return and lower standard deviation than asset C. Thus, as long as you are risk-averse, you would always prefer the set of assets (A, B) to the set assets (A, C). b) the same market B's. The covariance matrix between A, B, C is: Suppose the CAPM holds. Consider…

Chose one of the options below The Mean-Variance Optimization (MVO) model finds the portfolio weights with the smallest variance for a given level of expected return, given the individual assets' expected returns, variances and correlations. The Black-Litterman model is the mean-variance optimization model run backwards, that is, the MVO model solved for variables other than the weights. The Black-Litterman model solves for the A. asset pairwise correlations B. asset standard deviations C. portfolio weights D. asset expected returns
