- $1,000 is invested in a fund at the beginning of the year. The fund rate of return is 8% for the first half of the year, and 10% for the second half. You are given the following methods of determining return, given the indicated transactions: Scenario Return Measure Midyear Transaction I Dollar-weighted $500 deposit II Dollar-weighted $500 withdrawal III Time-weighted $500 deposit IV Time-weighted $500 withdrawal Rank the rates of returns under these scenarios. A. I < II = IV < III B. II < III = IV < I C. III < I = II < IV D. IV < I = II < III E. None of these answers is correct.arrow_forwardVijayarrow_forwardQuantAlpha fund charges a 12b-1 fee of 1% and maintains an expense ratio of 0.75%. Assume the rate of return on fund portfolio (before any taxes) is 6% per year. How much will an investment of $1000 in the fund grow to after 10 years?arrow_forward
- Suppose an individual invests $20,000 in a load mutual fund for two years. The load fee entails an up-front commission charge of 2.5 percent of the amount invested and is deducted from the original funds invested. In addition, annual fund operating expenses are 0.55 percent. The annual fees are charged on the average net asset value invested in the fund and are recorded at the end of each year. Investments in the fund return 7 percent each year paid on the last day of the year. If the investor reinvests the annual returns paid on the investment, calculate the annual return on the mutual funds over the two-year investment period. Select one: a. 3.77% b. 5.09% c. 7.54% d. 8.86% e. 10.18%arrow_forwardUsing a discount rate of 5.5% compounded annually, a pension fund estimates that the present value of its assets and liabilities are $7 million and $4 million, respectively. The duration of the assets is 11 years and the duration of the liabilities is 27 years. (a) Suppose that the interest rate decreases to 5.45%. Estimate the relative changes in the fund's assets and liabilities. Express yours answers as percentages, to the nearest basis point. Relative Change in Assets % Relative Change in Liabilities % (b) Using your rounded answers from (a), estimate the absolute changes in the fund's assets and liabilities. Express your answers in millions of dollars, to the nearest thousand. Absolute Change in Assets $ million Absolute Change in Liabilities s $ million (c) The fund's net worth is defined as the difference between its assets and liabilities. Using your answers from (b), estimate the relative change in the fund's net worth. Express your answer as a percent, to the nearest basis…arrow_forwardYou 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%arrow_forward
