2-3
Calculate a weighted average return. Also
calculate the standard deviation and mean
return of a single asset, and understand how
the range of returns is calculated within one,
two, and three standard deviations.
2-4
Calculate coefficient of variation, and
understand its application.
2-8
Calculate required return using the capital
asset pricing model (CAPM), and understand
its application.

Standard Deviation
• For normally distributed returns, calculate the standard
deviation range, add and subtract the standard
deviation amount from the mean return.
Example: Mean return of 10%, Std deviation of 15%
• One standard deviation: 10 + 15 = +25, and
10 – 15 = – 5
• Two standard deviations: 25 + 15 = +40, and
– 5 – 15 = – 20
• Three standard deviations: +55 to -35

Standard Deviation Concepts
• Normal distribution
• Skewness (security

•
•
returns are positively
skewed)

Standard Deviation Question
Scorpio Inc. has a mean return of
19%, and a standard deviation of
25.
What is the probability that the
stock will have a return greater
than 19% if the returns are
normally distributed?
3-7
Standard Deviation Question
Libra Inc. has a mean return of
11%, and a standard deviation
of 9.
Assuming the returns are
normally distributed, what is the
probability that the stock will
have a return greater than
20%?

Calculating Standard Deviation
Single Asset (2)
• Formula #4 on diagram
• Calculation is simple on
the 10BII+ or 12C
Assume Acme Industries has
the following annual returns:
• + 15%
• + 22%
• - 7%
• + 10%
What is the standard deviation and mean return?

SHIFT, 8
(g, “.” on 12C)
Answer = 12.36
For the mean return the keystrokes would be:
SHIFT, 7
(g, “0” on 12C)
Answer = 10%

Coefficient of Variation Example
CV(A) = 6%/10% = 0.60
CV(B) = 9%/12% = 0.75
B has a higher mean, but also has a higher CV, which
means you take higher risk per unit of return.

Remember that you can easily calculate both standard
deviation and mean return for a single asset with your
financial calculator, as we did previously.

Beta Coefficients
• Measures the volatility of a stock (or portfolio)
•
relative to the market (a benchmark); so, the
greater the correlation, the more accurate beta
becomes.
Since R-squared measures systematic risk, it
can be used to determine beta
reliability; generally you are looking
for an R-squared of 70 or higher
in order for beta to be considered
reliable.

3-14
Beta
Beta of 1 means the asset has the same
volatility as the benchmark.
What would be the approximate price movement
of the Acme Fund if it has a beta of .85, and the
benchmark it is being compared to has a return of
15%?
Answer: 15% x .85 = 12.75%
What if Acme’s beta were 1.25?
Answer: 15% x 1.25 = 18.75%
3-15
Weighted Average Using Beta
What is the weighted beta of the following portfolio?
• $40,000 in AAA, beta of 1.2
• $20,000 in TTT, beta of 0.9
• $15,000 in ZZZ, beta of 0.8

The Capital Asset Pricing Model
• CAPM also has a micro component that looks at
•
individual stock returns – the Security Market
Line – SML
This micro component is also used to help value
stocks
r  rf  (rm  rf )β
3-17
The Capital Asset Pricing Model
The risk-free rate is 3.5%, and the market’s
expected return is 8%. Your stock has a beta
of 1.1.
What is the required return?
• r = 3.5 + (8.0 – 3.5)1.1
• r = 3.5 + 4.95
• r = 8.45
What is the market risk premium?
• 4.5% (8.0 – 3.5)
