6 capital asset pricing model
Econa model of the market used to assess the cost of capital for a company based on the rate of return on its assets.EXAMPLEThe capital asset pricing model holds that the expected return of a security or a portfolio equals the rate on a risk-free security plus a risk premium. If this expected return does not meet or beat a theoretical required return, the investment should not be undertaken. The formula used for the model is:Risk-free rate + (Market return – Risk-free rate) × Beta value = Expected returnThe risk-free rate is the quoted rate on an asset that has virtually no risk. In practice, it is the rate quoted for 90-day U.S. Treasury bills. The market return is the percentage return expected of the overall market, typically a published index such as Standard & Poor’s. The beta value is a figure that measures the volatility of a security or portfolio of securities, compared with the market as a whole. A beta of 1, for example, indicates that a security’s price will move with the market. A beta greater than 1 indicates higher volatility, while a beta less than 1 indicates less volatility.Say, for instance, that the current risk-free rate is 4%, and the S&P 500 index is expected to return 11% next year. An investment club is interested in determining next year’s return for XYZ Software Ltd., a prospective investment. The club has determined that the company’s beta value is 1.8. The overall stock market always has a beta of 1, so XYZ Software’s beta of 1.8 signals that it is a more risky investment than the overall market represents. This added risk means that the club should expect a higher rate of return than the 11% for the S&P 500. The CAPM calculation, then, would be:4% + (11% – 4%) × 1.8 = 16.6% Expected ReturnWhat the results tell the club is that, given the risk, XYZ Software Ltd. has a required rate of return of 16.6%, or the minimum return that an investment in XYZ should generate. If the investment club does not think that XYZ will produce that kind of return, it should probably consider investing in a different company.Abbr.

7 capital lease
Gen Mgta lease that is treated as though the lessee had borrowed money and bought the leased assets. If a lease agreement does not meet any of the criteria below, the lessee treats it as an operating lease for accounting purposes. If, however, the agreement meets one of the following criteria, it is treated as a capital lease:1. The lease agreement transfers ownership of the assets to the lessee during the term of lease.2. The lessee can purchase the assets leased at a bargain price (also called a bargain purchase option), such as $1, at the end of the lease term.3. The lease term is at least 75% of the economic life of the leased asset.4. The present value of the minimum lease payments is 90% or greater of the asset’s value.Capital leases are reported by the lessee as if the assets being leased were acquired and the monthly rental payments as if they were payments of principal and interest on a debt obligation. Specifically, the lessee capitalizes the lease by recognizing an asset and a liability at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the value of the assets under lease. As the monthly rental payments are made, the corresponding liability decreases. At the same time, the leased asset is depreciated in a manner that is consistent with other owned assets having the same use and economic life. -

13 risk-adjusted return on capital
Finreturn on capital calculated in a way that takes into account the risks associated with income.EXAMPLEBeing able to compare a high-risk, potentially high-return investment with a low-risk, lower-return investment helps answer a key question that confronts every investor: is it worth the risk?There are several ways to calculate riskadjusted return. Each has its strengths and shortcomings. All require particular data, such as an investment’s rate of return, the risk-free return rate for a given period, and a market’s performance and its standard deviation.The choice of calculation depends on an investor’s focus: whether it is on upside gains or downside losses.Perhaps the most widely used is the Sharpe ratio. This measures the potential impact of return volatility on expected return and the amount of return earned per unit of risk. The higher a fund’s Sharpe ratio, the better its historical risk-adjusted performance, and the higher the number the greater the return per unit of risk. The formula is:(Portfolio return – Risk-free return)/Std deviation of portfolio return = Sharpe ratioTake, for example, two investments, one returning 54%, the other 26%. At first glance, the higher figure clearly looks like the better choice, but because of its high volatility it has a Sharpe ratio of 0.279, while the investment with a lower return has a ratio of 0.910. On a risk-adjusted basis the latter would be the wiser choice.The Treynor ratio also measures the excess of return per unit of risk. Its formula is:(Portfolio return – Risk-free return)/ Portfolio’s beta = Treynor ratioIn this formula (and others that follow), beta is a separately calculated figure that describes the tendency of an investment to respond to marketplace swings. The higher beta the greater the volatility, and vice versa.A third formula, Jensen’s measure, is often used to rate a money manager’s performance against a market index, and whether or not a investment’s risk was worth its reward. The formula is:(Portfolio return – Risk-free return) – Portfolio beta × (Benchmark return – Riskfree return) = Jensen’s measureThe ultimate business dictionary > risk-adjusted return on capital
