Portfolio Risk
The greater the number of different assets in a portfolio, the more Diversified a portfolio is As we have seen, portfolio variability (risk) can be quite different from the variability of individual stocks Principle of Diversification - when several assets are held, the collection can have less variability (risk) than the typical individual asset – this is a function of the asset correlations

The Principle of Diversification
The portion of variability present in a single security that is NOT present in a portfolio of securities is called Diversifiable Risk The level of variance that remains in a portfolio is called Undiversifiable Risk When securities are combined in portfolios, their unique risk (0) tends to cancel out unique or unsystematic risk is diversifiable risk large portfolios have little or no unsystematic risk

Systematic Risk and Reward
There is a reward for bearing risk {E(R) depends on risk} Since unsystematic risk can be diversified away, the reward for bearing risk depends on systematic or undiversifiable risk only This is the Systematic Risk Principle An asset’s E(R) depends only on its systematic risk Regardless of an asset’s total risk, its expected return depends only on its systematic or undiversifiable risk

Measuring Systematic Risk
The Beta Coefficient, β, of an asset measures how much systematic risk that asset has relative to an asset of “average” systematic risk β = 1 means “average” risk

Portfolio Betas
While portfolio variance is not the weighted average of the asset variances, a portfolio’s beta, βP, is the weighted average of the individual security betas.
Eg. Suppose you have the following portfolio. What is its beta? Amount Invested $6,000 $4,000 $2,000 Portfolio Weight 50% 33% 17% Beta Coef. 0.522 1.014 0.985

Beta and the Risk Premium
How are portfolio expected returns related to systematic risk?
Consider a portfolio with an investment in Stock A which has βA = 1.2 and E(RA) = 18% and a T-bill with a return of 7%. Given different portfolio weights, what is the E(RP)? Since the risk-free asset (T-bill) has no systematic risk, βf = 0 E(RP) = xf * Rf + xA * E(RA) β P = xf * β f + xA * βA = xf * 0 + xA * β A = xA * βA

Reward-to-Risk Ratio
the ratio E(RA) - Rf βA is called the Reward-to-Risk Ratio Measures the reward per unit of risk borne
Eg. For Stock A in previous example, the Reward-to-risk ratio was Risk Premium or reward for bearing risk Units of risk borne
(0.18 - 0.07)/1.2 = 0.092 or 9.2%
• MBAM614
Class 7 - 15
Risk and Reward
Consider two stocks A & B. Stock A has a reward-to-risk ratio of 12% and stock B has a reward-to-risk ratio of 9%. Which do you prefer? Why? Since A is offering a greater reward per unit of risk, we prefer A and will ignore B In an active, competitive market in which only systematic risk affects expected returns, the reward-to-risk ratio must be the same for all assets and portfolios in the market
Thus, the expected returns and betas of all assets and portfolios must plot on the same straight line. This line is called the Security Market Line or SML
• MBAM614 Class 7 - 16

Example: Finding the Risk-free Rate
Investors expect CitiGroup’s return to be 12% based on its low historical systematic risk. The low systematic risk is also reflected in C’s beta, βC = 0.800. Consolidated Moose Pastures is somewhat more risky with a beta of βCMP = 2.000. Of course, CMP’s expected return of 20% is also higher. What is the current riskfree rate? Since all securities plot on the SML, all have the same reward-torisk ratio: E(RC) - Rf βC = E(RCMP) - Rf βCMP or 12%- Rf 0.800 = 20%- Rf 2.000
Solving for Rf gives 8% = 1.2 Rf or Rf = 6.7%
• MBAM614 Class 7 - 17
The SML
The portfolio that contains all of the assets in the market is called the Market Portfolio, M By definition, M has average systematic risk so βM = 1 Since all assets and portfolios lie on the SML when appropriately priced, so must the market portfolio If the expected return on M is E(RM), then the slope of the SML is Market Risk Premium E(RM) - Rf E(RM) - Rf SML Slope = = = E(RM) - Rf βM 1
• MBAM614 Class 7 - 18

The Capital Asset Pricing Model
Since all assets plot on the SML, the expected return to any asset i, E(Ri), must satisfy the same reward-to-risk ratio as the market portfolio E(Ri) - Rf βi = E(RM) - Rf
E(Ri) = Rf + βi* [ E(RM) - Rf ] This is the Capital Asset Pricing Model or CAPM
• MBAM614
Class 7 - 19
The CAPM
E(Ri) = Rf + βi* [ E(RM) - Rf ] the CAPM states that the expected return on an asset depends on: – The time value of money as measured by Rf – The reward per unit of systematic risk, E(RM) - Rf – The asset’s systematic risk as measured by β

Example: AT&T’s E(R)
AT&T Corp. has a beta of 0.522. If the current risk-free (T-bill) rate is 6.5% per year and the expected market premium is 9.2% (this is actually the historical market risk premium), what is E(RT)? Using CAPM: E(RT) = Rf + βT* [ E(RM) - Rf ] = 6.5% + 0.522 * [9.2%] E(RT) = 11.3% If E(RIMS) = 15.7%, the risk-free rate is 9%, and the expected market premium is 6%, what is Imasco’s beta? E(RIMS) = Rf + βIMS* [ E(RM) - Rf ] = 9% + βIMS * [6%] = 15.7% βIMS = 1.12

Class 7 - 21
The Cost of Capital
How do we determine the appropriate discount rate to use when evaluating projects? Two step process: – Determine the riskiness of the project. That is, find the systematic risk or β – Determine the expected return on alternative investments of similar risk. That is, find the expected return in financial markets for that β
• MBAM614 Class 7 - 22

The Cost of Capital
The Cost of Capital is the minimum expected return an investment must offer to be attractive – The cost of capital is also called the Required Rate of Return The cost of capital, when taken as the market rate on a financial asset of equal systematic risk, is an Opportunity Cost because other profitable opportunities have been forgone.
• MBAM614
Class 7 - 23
Example: Purchasing Harris Bank
When the Bank of Montreal was considering the purchase of Harris Bank, a cost was determined and projections of cash inflows and out-flows were made. The intent was to check the NPV of purchasing HB. Assuming that Harris Bank and California Federal had the same amount of systematic risk (a BIG assumption), that CF had a beta of 0.700, that the risk-free rate was 7.2%, and that the expected market premium was 9.2%, what discount rate should BOM have used in their analysis? Since βHB = βCF = 0.700, applying the CAPM E(RHB) = 7.2% + 0.700 * [9.2%] = 13.6% The required rate of return for the HB investment should have been 13.6%

Required Return & Cost of Capital
All investments with the same systematic risk have the same expected return. Can be viewed in many ways: – Required Return is from the investor’s point of view – Cost of Capital is from the firm’s point of view – Opportunity Cost is the return available in financial markets on investments with same systematic risk These are all the same thing! A firm’s Cost of Capital is the return investors expect to earn by investing in the firm
• MBAM614
Class 7 - 29
Example: Cost of Capital
The Cost of Capital is an Opportunity Cost: it depends on what the money is invested in, not where it comes from
Ford Motor Company is considering the introduction of a new line of automobiles at a cost of $2B. The entire $2B can be borrowed at a cost of 9.25% in interest. Bonds, available from your broker for up to $3B, with identical systematic risk are currently yielding 12.5%. If Ford borrowed the money and invested in the new car line, what would the cost of capital for the new car line be? Since Ford could have invested in the bonds yielding 12.5%, the new car line MUST earn at least 12.5% otherwise it is a poor investment. The cost of capital is 12.5% not 9.25%.

Sources of Capital
Firms usually use more than one type of security to raise capital. Common types are: – Bonds or Debt (less risky) – Preferred Stock (moderate risk) – Common Stock (more risky) A firm’s Capital Structure is the particular combination of these securities used by the firm. For now, this is taken as given. A firm’s overall cost of capital will reflect the average riskiness of all its securities – just like the expected return on a portfolio of securities Means we need to find the cost of each type of capital

Dividend Growth Model
Recall that when dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate P0 = D0* (1 + g)/(Re - g) = D1/(Re - g)
Dividend Yield
Re = D1/P0 + g
Growth or Capital Gains
To implement, find most recent dividend (D0 or D1) and price (P0). Financial press or company, for example. Must estimate g

Example: Historical Dividends
Given the following dividend history for CMP, what would you estimate CMP’s growth rate to be? If the current share price is $45, what is Re for CMP? Year 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 Dividend $4.00 4.40 4.75 5.25 5.65 ∆ Dividend $0.40 0.35 0.50 0.40 % Change 10.00 7.95 10.53 7.62
g = average = (10.00% + 7.95% + 10.53% + 7.62%)/4 = 9.025% Re = D1/P0 + g Re = ($5.65 * 1.09025)/$45 + 0.09025 = 22.714%

Pros & Cons of CGM
Advantages – Easy to use – Widely recognized Disadvantages – Only works if firm pays dividends – Re is VERY sensitive to estimate of g – History may not be a reliable predictor of future – Risk is only indirectly accounted for by use of price
• MBAM614
Class 7 - 36
18
Using CAPM
CAPM (SML) says Re depends on: – Risk-free rate, Rf – Expected market risk premium, E(RM) - Rf – amount of systematic risk, measured by β Re = Rf + βe* [E(RM) - Rf] To implement: – βs are widely available (Broker, PFSI, Web, etc.) – T-Bill rate often used for Rf – Must estimate Market Risk Premium, E(RM) - Rf , using either historical averages or analysts’ forecasts
• MBAM614 Class 7 - 37
Pros & Cons of CAPM
Advantages – Consistent with capital market history, method specifically adjusts for risk – Applicable to virtually all publicly traded stocks, not just those paying dividends Disadvantages – History may not be a reliable predictor of future for market risk premiums and βs – Not as widely understood thus less frequently used Best to use both CGM and CAPM and compare – use average if reasonably close – use most reliable if different

Example: Cost of Equity for Exxon Mobil
Exxon Mobil Corp. (XOM) has a beta of 1.05. If the risk-free rate is 6.5% and the market risk premium is the 7%, what is XOM’s cost of equity? Using CAPM: Re = Rf + βe* [E(RM) - Rf] Re = 6.5% + 1.05(7%) = 13.85% Irving Oil, which does not currently have publicly traded shares, is considering selling some. What is Irving’s cost of equity? If Irving plans to pay a $2.00 dividend after one year and have it grow at 7% thereafter, what will their share price probably be? Assuming Irving Oil and Exxon Mobil have similar systematic risk, Irving’s cost of equity would be 13.85% P0 = D1/(Re - g) = $2.00/(13.85% - 7%) = $29.20
• MBAM614 Class 7 - 39
Cost of Debt
Although CAPM applies to bonds, seldom need to use it The Cost of Debt, Rd, can easily be estimated from current market conditions: – Yield-to-maturity on current debt – Yield-to-maturity on debt with same rating (risk)
Eg. If Pohl Corp. issued a 10-year bond 5 years ago with a coupon rate of 13% that is currently selling for $1,075, what is Pohl’s cost of debt? Assuming annual interest, the YTM that makes a 5 year annuity of $130 + the PV of $1,000 in 5 years have a present value of $1,075 is 10.97% or approximately 11%
• MBAM614 Class 7 - 40

Example: Cost of Debt for BBD
On March 1/97, Bombardier had a 34-year AA bond outstanding yielding 7.632%. If BBD wanted to issue 8-year bonds (also rated AA), what would the cost of that debt have been? Other AA 8year issues outstanding on March 1/97 were: Issuer Bell Canada CIBC Canadian Utilities PanCanadian Petroleum Thompson Corp Yield 6.577% 6.727% 6.488% 6.578% 6.805%
Since there is such a great difference in term-to-maturity, the new bonds would not have had similar risk to the 34-year bonds. An average of the 8-year AA bonds would be a better estimate. Rd = 6.635% (actually had a 9 yr yielding 6.746%)
• MBAM614
Class 7 - 41
Cost of Preferred
CAPM also applies to preferreds but seldom need to use it The Cost of Preferred, Rp, can easily be estimated from current market conditions, too: – Since a preferred share is a perpetuity, simply the dividend yield on current preferreds Rp = Dp / P0 – Dividend yield on preferreds with same rating (risk)

Average Cost of Capital
What is the average cost of capital for the firm? Must be the same as the average return required by all investors. What is that? If you purchased all the securities of a firm, you have purchased a portfolio. Your expected (required) return on the portfolio will be the average cost of capital for the firm. Weighted average of the security required returns: Re, Rd, Rp Portfolio weights are simply market value invested in each security as a percentage of total portfolio market value Cost of Capital for firm is the weighted average cost of the different types of capital the firm has issued - called WACC
• MBAM614 Class 7 - 44
22
Portfolio Weights for Cost of Capital
Determine market value of each type of security outstanding – E - market value of firm’s equity (# shares × share price) – D - market value of firm’s debt (# bonds × bond price) – P - market value of preferreds (# preferred shares × preferred share price) – V - total market value of the firm’s securities (total market value to security holders) V=E+D+P The weights E/V, D/V, and P/V are called the Capital Structure Weights and reflect the Capital Structure of the firm (how it has raised capital)
• MBAM614
Class 7 - 45
Unadjusted WACC
Unadjusted Weighted Average Cost of Capital is simply the weighted average of the various costs WACC(unadjusted) = (E/V) × Re + (D/V) × Rd + (P/V) × Rp
Eg. HRM Corp’s common equity has a market value of $5MM, their debt has a market value of $15MM, and (since HRM is not preferred by anyone) no preferred. If HRM’s cost of equity is 14% and their cost of debt is 8%, what is their WACC(unadjusted)? V = E + D = $5MM + $15MM = $20MM E/V = $5MM/$20MM = 25% D/V = $15MM/$20MM = 75%
WACC(unadjusted) = (0.25)(14%) + (0.75)(8%) = 9.5%

Taxes and WACC
When discounting after-tax cash flows, we require an after-tax discount rate Although a firm pays full interest on debt, interest is tax deductible so on an after-tax basis, only a portion, (1 - TC), of the cost of debt is actually paid The after-tax Weighted Average Cost of Capital is: WACC = (E/V) × Re + (D/V) × Rd × (1 - TC) + (P/V) × Rp WACC is the overall return the firm must earn on its assets to maintain the value of its stock

The firm’s outstanding bonds have ten years to maturity, a face value of $5MM, a coupon rate of 10%, and are selling for $985 per bond. The risk-free rate is 7%, and analysts’ expected return for the market is 14%. PFSI is in the 40% marginal tax bracket and their stock has a beta of 1.2. What is PFSI’s WACC? Capital Structure Weights: E = 1,000,000 * $12 = $12,000,000 D = $5,000,000 * 0.985 = $4,925,000 V = E + D = $12,000,000 + $4,925,000 = $16,925,000 E/V = $12,000,000/$16,925,000 = 0.709 or 70.9% D/V = $4,925,000/$16,925,000 = 0.291 or 29.1%

WACC and Project Risk
The WACC is the average cost of capital for the firm and reflects the firm’s average systematic risk Thus, the WACC is an appropriate discount rate for any project that has the same systematic risk as the firm’s average systematic risk - that is, that is similar to the firm’s “average project” Conversely, if a project has significantly different systematic risk, then the WACC is NOT an appropriate discount rate

Re = D1/P0 + g Re = Rf + βe* [E(RM) - Rf]
3. Cost of Debt can be observed in the market as can the cost of preferred 4. Weights and values are ALWAYS based on market value 5. WACC is after-tax: WACC = (E/V) × Re + (D/V) × Rd × (1 - TC) + (P/V) × Rp
