What is the arithmetic average time-weighted rates of return for the investor? (Do not round intermediate

calculations. Enter your answer as a decimal number rounded to four decimal places)

Arithmetic average time-weighted rates of return?

What are the geometric average time-weighted rates of return for the investor?

consider the following cash flows.
year 2 22600$
year 3 40600$
year 5 58600$
assume an interest rate of 9.4% per year.
if today is year 0 what is the future value of cash flows 5 years from now?

The expected dividends for a stock are: Year 1=$2, Year 2=$3, after Year 2, we expect dividends to grow by 6% forever. If we require an annual return of 8% from this stock, what would be the value of the stock to us? If it sells for $30 in the market, should we buy it?

XYZ stock price and dividend history are as follows:

An investor buys three shares of XYZ at the beginning of 2010, buys another one shares at the beginning of 2011, sells one share at the beginning of 2012, and sells all three remaining shares at the beginning of 2013.

a. What are the arithmetic and geometric average time-weighted rates of return for the investor? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

b-1. Prepare a chart of cash flows for the four dates corresponding to the turns of the year for January 1, 2010, to January 1, 2013. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign.)

b-2. What is the dollar-weighted rate of return? (Hint: If your calculator cannot calculate internal rate of return, you will have to use a spreadsheet or trial and error.) (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)
