The key takeaways are that individuals invest to trade off present consumption for future consumption, and that various factors like risk, inflation, and opportunity costs contribute to determining the rates of return required by investors.

Some factors that contribute to the rates of return that investors require on alternative investments include the cost of money in terms of production opportunity, risk, consumption, and expected inflation.

Individuals measure the rate of return on an investment by considering the pure rate of interest as the exchange rate between future and present consumption, as well as factors like inflation, risk, and time value of money.

Chapter 1 The Investment Setting


Questions to be answered: Why do individuals invest ? What is an investment ? How do we measure the rate of return on an investment ? How do investors measure risk related to alternative investments ?

Chapter 1 The Investment Setting


What factors contribute to the rates of return that investors require on alternative investments ? Cost of money (production opportunity, risk, consumption, expected inflation) What macroeconomic and microeconomic factors contribute to changes in the required rate of return for individual investments and investments in general ?

Why Do Individuals Invest ?


By saving money (instead of spending it), individuals tradeoff present consumption for a larger future consumption.

How Do We Measure The Rate Of Return On An Investment ?


The pure rate of interest is the exchange rate between future consumption and present consumption. Market forces determine this rate.

$1.00 + 4% = $1.04

How Do We Measure The Rate Of Return On An Investment ?


Peoples willingness to pay the difference for borrowing today and their desire to receive a surplus on their savings give rise to an interest rate referred to as the pure time value of money.

How Do We Measure The Rate Of Return On An Investment ?


If the future payment will be diminished in value because of inflation, then the investor will demand an interest rate higher than the pure time value of money to also cover the expected inflation expense.

How Do We Measure The Rate Of Return On An Investment ?


If the future payment from the investment is not certain, the investor will demand an interest rate that exceeds the pure time value of money plus the inflation rate to provide a risk premium to cover the investment risk.

Defining an Investment
A current commitment of $ for a period of time in order to derive future payments that will compensate for:
the time the funds are committed the expected rate of inflation uncertainty of future flow of funds.

A Portfolio of Investments
The mean historical rate of return for a portfolio of investments is measured as the weighted average of the HPYs for the individual investments in the portfolio.

Expected Rates of Return


Risk is uncertainty that an investment will earn its expected rate of return Probability is the likelihood of an outcome

Risk Aversion
The assumption that most investors will choose the least risky alternative, all else being equal and that they will not accept additional risk unless they are compensated in the form of higher return

Determinants of Required Rates of Return


Time value of money Expected rate of inflation Risk involved

The Real Risk Free Rate (RRFR)


Assumes no inflation. Assumes no uncertainty about future cash flows. Influenced by time preference for consumption of income and investment opportunities in the economy

Adjusting For Inflation


Real RFR =

1.12

(1 + Nominal RFR) 1 (1 + Rate of Inflation)

Nominal Risk-Free Rate


Dependent upon
Conditions in the Capital Markets Expected Rate of Inflation

Adjusting For Inflation


Nominal RFR =

1.11

(1+Real RFR) x (1+Expected Rate of Inflation) - 1

Facets of Fundamental Risk


Business risk Financial risk Liquidity risk Exchange rate risk Country risk

Business Risk
Uncertainty of income flows caused by the nature of a firms business Sales volatility and operating leverage determine the level of business risk.

Financial Risk
Uncertainty caused by the use of debt financing. Borrowing requires fixed payments which must be paid ahead of payments to stockholders. The use of debt increases uncertainty of stockholder income and causes an increase in the stocks risk premium.

Liquidity Risk
Uncertainty is introduced by the secondary market for an investment.
How long will it take to convert an investment into cash? How certain is the price that will be received?

Exchange Rate Risk


Uncertainty of return is introduced by acquiring securities denominated in a currency different from that of the investor. Changes in exchange rates affect the investors return when converting an investment back into the home currency.

Country Risk
Political risk is the uncertainty of returns caused by the possibility of a major change in the political or economic environment in a country. Individuals who invest in countries that have unstable political-economic systems must include a country risk-premium when determining their required rate of return

Risk Premium
f (Business Risk, Financial Risk, Liquidity Risk, Exchange Rate Risk, Country Risk)

or
f (Systematic Market Risk)

Risk Premium and Portfolio Theory


The relevant risk measure for an individual asset is its co-movement with the market portfolio Systematic risk relates the variance of the investment to the variance of the market Beta measures this systematic risk of an asset

Fundamental Risk versus Systematic Risk


Fundamental risk comprises business risk, financial risk, liquidity risk, exchange rate risk, and country risk Systematic risk refers to the portion of an individual assets total variance attributable to the variability of the total market portfolio

RPi = E(Ri)- NRFR


where: RPi = risk premium for asset i E(Ri) = the expected return for asset i NRFR = the nominal return on a risk-free asset

Market Portfolio Risk

The market risk premium for the market portfolio (contains all the risky assets in the market) can be computed: RPm = E(Rm)- NRFR where: RPm = risk premium on the market portfolio E(Rm) = expected return on the market portfolio NRFR = expected return on a risk-free asset
