ya the theory of Q 4. a) is there in SFM book of Shridhar...and same question but I forgot to revise that question ...so I couldn't opt for it...

2 questions were directly lifted from RTP (may 2012)

the eps one - 8 mks

and 1b..that dividend for months - 5 mks

so 8+5 = 13 mks straight from rtp..!!

mayank singhvi,

i think d answer for 1c is 14.24%, 712/5000 ( the gain on exchange is on the entire 5600)

even cost of funds in 1a seems to be different.

heyy guys can u please upload todays paper???

@ manish even i got 14.24% for q 1.d... im quite sure it is right...

In question 1(c)

The dollor appreciation should be applied only to the price at the begining of the year.

Because the investor can get the income by way of the currency appreciation even without investing in the fund.

So. the answer would be:

(5250-5100+350)/5100 *100

=9.8%

Answers for SFM Paper

Q 1(b) = 2200 x 1.01593 = 2235.05

Q. 1(c) = 1.12 x 1.02 = 14.24%

Q 1(d) beta of stock as comapre to future = (4 * 0.75)/6  =  0.50

Hedge ratio of complete hedging  = 0.50

That means Future of 5 MT Copper would be sold

What is Random Error in Q5b. how to find the stock S.D.

do we have to apply the lengthy formula for portfolio risk of 4 securities or there is a shorter method?

It is a Sharpe Index Model, Random Error means Unsystematic risk, hardly two line solution

i think it was a stock market paper rather than sfm.....no doubt m gonna fail in this paper
