Chapter 12, Problem 12.2Q
When market rates of interest rise after a fixed-rate security is purchased, the value of the now-below-market, fixed-interest payments declines, so the market value of the investment falls. On the other hand, if market rates of interest fall after a fixed-rate security is purchased, the fixed-interest payments become relatively attractive, and the market value of the investment rises. Assuming these price changes are not viewed as giving rise to an other than- temporary impairment, how are they reflected in the investment account for a security classified as held-to-maturity?

When market rates of interest rise after a fixed-rate security is purchased, the value of the now-below-market, fixed-interest payments declines, so the market value of the investment falls. How would that drop in fair value be reflected in the investment account for a security classified as HTM? Would your answer change if the drop in fair value was due to worsened financial conditions at the investee?
In general, what effect would a reduction in risk have on “going-in” cap rates? What would this effect be if it occurred at the same time as an unexpected increase in demand? What would the effect on property values be?

- Financial advisors generally recommend that their clients allocate more to higher risk–return asset classes (like equities) if their investment horizons are long. Is this advice consistent with the basic M-V model? Does adding a shortfall constraint to the M-V model make a difference? If so, how? If not, why not? Assuming investment opportunities change over time, what type of asset return behavior would justify this advice within the M-V framework?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is false? A.

- Market Efficiency Implications Explain why a characteristic of an efficient market is that investments in that market have zero NPVs.arrow_forwardAn abnormal return occurs: Only when the actual return is lower than the expected return. Only when the actual return is higher than the expected return. Only when the market value is higher than the intrinsic value. Only when capital appreciation exceeds the expected capital appreciation. Should not be discussed because the word “abnormal” might be hurtful to someone.arrow_forwardHow does the Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT) differ from and complement the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)? The Arbitrage Pricing Theory, developed by Stephen Ross, proposes that an asset's returns can be predicted using the linear relationship between the asset's expected return and a number of macroeconomic factors. Unlike CAPM, which uses a single factor (market risk), APT allows for multiple factors to explain asset returns, potentially providing a more comprehensive risk-return framework. These factors might include inflation, GDP growth, interest rates, or market indices. APT is based on the principle that arbitrage opportunities will be eliminated in efficient markets, leading to a pricing equilibrium. While more flexible than CAPM, APT faces challenges in identifying and measuring relevant factors. The theory has important implications for portfolio management, asset valuation, and our understanding of risk premiums in financial markets.arrow_forward

Also, using either of these theories, explain how superior investment performance can be established.arrow_forward
