Answer:- Explanation of Arbitrage pricing theory
Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), and Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT) are two of the most commonly used models for pricing risky assets based on their relevant risks.
CAPM calculates the required rate of return for any risky asset based on the security’s beta. Beta is a measure of the movement of the security’s return with the return on the market portfolio, which includes all available securities and where the proportion of each security in the portfolio is its market value as a percentage of total market value of all securities.
Answer:-Explanation of Dow Theory and its assumptions
The Dow Theory was originated by Charles Dow, the founder of the Dow Jones Company and editor of the Wall Street Journal. The Dow Theory presumes that the market moves in persistent bull and bear trends. Dow Theory was originally used for market as a whole, but it is now used for individual securities as well.
Dow Theory recognises that it is the actions of traders in the marketplace responding to news that cause prices to change rather than the news itself, and that, once established, a market trend tends to continue.
Answer:- Explanation on intrinsic value of securities Issues with fundamental analysis
This exercise capitalises on the observed discrepancy in market price and intrinsic value of company shares. In other words, the valuation gap exposed by the fundamental analysis is used by the investors to reap capital gains till price corrections take place in the market.
When the market is in equilibrium, the current market price reflects the average intrinsic value evaluations made by all investors. If this value differs for an investor, it effectively means differing from the market consensus on the expected return or risk or both. Such investors may profit by acting before the market consensus reflects the correct information.
Answer:- Explanation of factors affecting the risk
The common risk factors are:
Business risk: As a security holder you get dividends, interest or principal (on maturity in case of securities like bonds) from the firm. But there is a possibility that the firm may not be able to pay you due to poor financial performance. This possibility is termed as business risk. The poor financial performance could be due to economic slowdown, poor demand for the firm’s goods and services and large operating expenses. Such a performance affects the equity and the debt holder. The equity holder may not get dividends and residual claim on the income and wealth of the firm. Similarly a debt holder may not get interest and principal payments.
Answer:- Explanation on financial derivatives
Derivatives are financial instruments that have no intrinsic value, but derive their value from something else. They hedge the risk of owning things that are subject to unexpected price fluctuations, for example foreign currencies, commodities (like wheat), stocks and bonds. The term ‘derivative’ indicates that it has no independent value, i.e. its value is entirely ‘derived’ from the value of the cash asset. For example, price of a stock option depends on the underlying stock price and the price of currency future depends on the price of the underlying currency.
Answer:- Explanation of investment process
1. Setting investment policy
This initial step determines the investor’s objectives and the investible amount. Since there is a definite relationship between risk and return, the objectives should be stated in terms of both risk and return.
This step concludes with the asset allocation decision, which is identification of the potential categories of financial assets for consideration in the portfolio that the investor is going to construct. Asset allocation involves dividing an investment portfolio among different asset categories, such as stocks, bonds and cash.
Answer : Objective function is to maximize the profit
Thus Max. Z=200X1+500X2
Answer:- Prof. James E. Walter considers that dividend pay-outs are relevant and have a bearing on the share prices of the firm. He further states that investment policies of a firm cannot be separated from its dividend policy and both are inter-linked. The choice of an appropriate dividend policy affects the value of the firm.
Walter model clearly establishes a relationship between the firm’s rate of return “r” and its cost of capital “k” to give a dividend policy that maximizes shareholders’ wealth. The firm would have the optimum dividend policy that enhances the value of the firm.

Answer:- Financial leverage relates to the financing activities of a firm and measures the effect of EBIT on Earnings Per Share (EPS) of the company. A company’s sources of funds fall under two categories:

Answer:- Explain Wealth maximization
The term wealth means shareholder’s wealth or the wealth of the persons those who are involved in the business concern. Wealth maximisation is also known as value maximisation or net present worth maximisation. This objective is an universally accepted concept in the field of business.
Wealth maximisation is possible only when the company pursues policies that would increase the market value of shares of the company. It has been accepted by the finance managers as it overcomes the limitations of profit maximisation.
The following arguments are in support of the superiority of wealth maximisation over profit maximisation:
