CHAPTER 12
RISK AND RETURN

CHAPTER 12:

Why do some assets offer a higher return compared to others? Common sense tells us that the assets that
offer a higher return must have a higher risk. This logic appeals to our common sense in that we know we
cannot get something for nothing.

É There is a trade-off between risk and return. Assuming investors are risk adverse, they must be induced to


oÉ¥É ÉÉ
hold risky assets by offering a higher expected return.

In this chapter you will learn how to measure risk and return for an individual assets and portfolios. Once
we have done that, we will establish a relationship between risk and return. This will allow us to determine
the kind of the return a rational investor should demand to invest in a risky security.

Measuring return ⑨ Use relationship
Example 1:
Assume we have the following observations on stock A. Calculate the % return you earned each month on
your investment. Remember a return is nothing more than what you make in the numerator divided by
what you put in (or what you invested). So, in the example below your numerator will consist of capital
gains (or loss) plus the dividend whenever applicable. The denominator will be the starting price.

Calculating arithmetic and geometric means:
You can calculate arithmetic or a geometric average; the one you choose will depend upon the results you
desire. The arithmetic average return tells us the return we obtained in an average/typical year over a given
period. The geometric average return tells us the average compound return per year over a given period.
Unless otherwise stated the calculated return is always an arithmetic average.
Example 2:
Estimate the arithmetic and geometric averages for the following: 4.3%, 3.2%, 5.6%, 10.5%, and -7.6%.
