An investor buys three shares of XYZ at the beginning of 2018, buys another two
shares at the beginning of 2019, sells one share at the beginning of 2020, and
sells all four remaining shares at the beginning of 2021. (LO 5-1)
a. What are the arithmetic and geometric average time-weighted rates of return for
the investor?
b. What is the dollar-weighted rate of return? (Hint: Carefully prepare a chart of
cash flows for the four dates corresponding to the turns of the year for January 1,

return, you will have to use a spreadsheet or trial and error.)
