Defining Return
Income receivedon an investment plus any change in
market price, usually expressed as a percent of the
beginning market price of the investment.
Dt + (Pt – Pt - 1 )

Return Example
The stockprice for Stock A was $10 per share 1 year
ago. The stock is currently trading at $9.50 per share
and shareholders just received a $1 dividend. What
return was earned over the past year?
$1.00 + ($9.50 – $10.00 )
$10.00
R = = 5%

Defining Risk
What rateof return do you expect on your
investment (savings) this year?
What rate will you actually earn?
The variability of returns from those that are
expected. It is calculated by using standard
deviation method.

Determining Expected Return
(DiscreteDist.)
R = S ( Ri )( Pi )
R is the expected return for the asset,
Ri is the return for the ith
possibility,
Pi is the probability of that return occurring,
n is the total number of possibilities.

Determining Standard Deviation(Risk
Measure)
s = S ( Ri – R )2
( Pi )
Standard Deviation, s, is a statistical measure of
the variability of a distribution around its mean.
It is the square root of variance.
Note, this is for a discrete distribution.
