Although its application continues to spark vigorous debate, modern financial theory is now applied as a matter of course to investment management. CAPM, the capital asset pricing model, is a theoretical representation of the behavior of financial markets and can be employed in estimating a company’s cost of equity capital. Despite limitations, the model can be a useful addition to the financial manager’s analytical tool kit. The expanding work on the theory and application of CAPM has produced many sophisticated, often highly complex extensions of the simple model. Discuss the assumptions that the modern financial theory and CAPM rest on. Discuss whether assumptions that they depend on are realistic or unrealistic. Discuss how the concept of risk is defined or calculated in financial theory and CAPM.

Exercise 6 (Dark Matter Versus Return Differentials). Suppose net investment income is N II = 300, the net international investment position is N IIP = −2000, the international liability position is L = 5000, and the interest rate on international liabilities is 4 percent (r L = 0.04). Part 1: Economic consultant Jim Taylor, a strong advocate of the return differential hypothesis, maintains that the rate of return on the country’s international assets, denoted r A, is different from the return on its net international liabilities, r L. Find the value of r A consistent with Taylor’s view. Part 2: Economist Carol Powell does not support the idea of return differentials. Instead, she defends the dark matter hypothesis. Specifically, she believes that A is not accurately recorded and that the rate of return is 4 percent on both, A and L. Calculate the amount of dark matter and the ‘true’ international asset position, which we will denote T A, consistent with Powell’s view.
