Quiz 1 Review

You are considering an equity investment in one of
two companies. One, an oil company is nearing
default on its debt, while the other, a utility, is in
relatively stable condition and the yield on its bonds
is 3%. Additionally, banks are currently paying 1.5%
for you to keep your money in a CD (assume this is
risk-free). With this in mind, what would be a
reasonable return expectation should you choose to
invest in the oil company?

Modern Portfolio Theory


Theory on how risk-averse investors construct
portfolios to maximize expected return given a level
of market risk
Risk aversion




Humans like to avoid risk
Investing is inherently risky!
Not all investors feel the same about risk
Example


Investor A is extremely risk averse
Two investments: US Treasuries or Tesla Motors?

Which will he be more inclined to choose?
Mentorship || Session 2
Modern Portfolio Theory

Theory on how risk-averse investors construct portfolios to
maximize expected return given a level of market risk

Portfolio



A range of investments held by an investor
Could include a range of stocks from different sectors, some bonds, and maybe
even some currencies, commodities, or other ‘alternative’ investments
Why is portfolio construction so important?

Investor A has $10,000. He can invest all of it into a single company, or he can
invest $1000 into ten different companies across the market.
 Option 1: After investing all of his money into company A, he reads the news
and sees that one of Company A’s manufacturing plants burnt down. He loses A
LOT.
 Option 2: After investing all of his money across ten different companies, he
reads the same news. He still loses a bit of money, but the next article was an
earnings report for another company he holds. This caused “Company B’s” stock
price to go up. The other 8 companies tracked the market and were ‘up’ for the
day. Now, a disaster in one of his investments has only lost him a little money, if
any at all!
Mentorship || Session 2
Modern Portfolio Theory


Theory on how risk-averse investors construct
portfolios to maximize expected return given a
level of market risk
Expected Return

The amount an investor would ‘expect’ to receive from an
investment


Based off of historical returns and implies risk
Remember, we expect riskier investments to have higher
returns

If not, we would never invest in them!
Mentorship || Session 2
Modern Portfolio Theory

Theory on how risk-averse investors construct
portfolios to maximize expected return given a level
of market risk

Market Risk (‘Systematic’ risk)

Possibility of losses due to factors that affect the overall
performance of financial markets



Recessions, legislation, certain commodity prices (e.g. oil), expectations
Goal is to maximize our expected returns given a level of
‘exposure’ to market risk that we want to hold
All companies are not exposed to equal levels of market risk

Kraft Foods vs Cole Haan


Whether the economy is strong or weak, consumers will still demand
‘staple’ foods from Kraft.
BUT, if we are in a recession, how many consumers will shop at Cole
Haan?
Mentorship || Session 2
Measuring Market Risk

Question:

We have three companies: Kraft Foods, Ralph Lauren,
and Boeing




Kraft is a very stable company; relatively less affected by
recessions
Ralph Lauren sells ‘luxury’ products; relatively more affected by
recessions
Boeing sells airplanes. Many corporations need airplanes, but
vacation travel is a ‘luxury’. Therefore, Boeing will be affected
averagely by a recession
So let’s say markets perform poorly and drop an average
of 1% in value

How do we expect our three company to perform respectively?
How does this relate to Market Risk?
Mentorship || Session 2
Measuring Market Risk

Market Beta

Measure of the market risk of a security or a portfolio in
comparison to the market as a whole
rp = a series of returns for a
security or portfolio
rb is a series of average
returns for the ‘market’.

Think of it as a measure of Volatility:

Something that is highly volatile is liable to change
rapidly and unpredictably
Mentorship || Session 2
Market Beta

Market Beta shows the expected percent change
in the value of an asset given an average percent
change in the market


If you have a company with a Beta of 1.2, and the value of
the S&P 500 goes up 1.0%, you would expect your asset’s
value to have gone up 1.2%
Remember

Returns of any asset are expressed as the change in the
value of that asset relative to its previous price

If stock A’s price increases from $50 to $100, my return was
100%
 Return = (New Price – Old Price) / Old Price
Mentorship || Session 2
Measuring Market Risk

Market Beta is assessing returns


Market Returns




So how do we measure the returns of the ‘market’ as a
whole?
Theoretically, it would be the average return across all
securities in a market for a given time period (e.g. 1 day)
Measuring this is not realistic though
Instead, we use an index
Market Index


S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average
Provide us with a ‘proxy’ for the average performance of
the market
Mentorship || Session 2
Market Beta

So what does Beta tell us about “Market Risk”?


Think about reactions: How will my investment react if
the market changes by “X%”?
There is risk implied in this:



If your asset has a high beta, you may lose A LOT of money
when the average security in the market only lost a little
BUT, this also means that you may gain A LOT of money while
the average security in the market only makes a little
Doesn’t that sound exactly like if we have varying levels of risk?
Mentorship || Session 2
Expected Returns

Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is the most
popular method for computing expected returns
E(R) = Rf + b(RM – Rf)
Rf = Risk-free Rate of Return
b = Market Beta
RM = Expected Average Return of the Market

Expected Average Return of the Market



Usually measured as the expected return of the S&P 500
Historically, it has been 5% - 8%
As you can see, E(R) increases as b increases

This implies that Beta is a measurement of systematic risk
Mentorship || Session 2
Diversification


As discussed earlier, we want to hold more than one asset
at a time in order to diversify our holdings, thus
lowering our risk
Company-specific risk


Risk unrelated to the macro-economy
“Apple Inc’s CEO is indicted for fraud”



This is bad for the company, and will ONLY affect Apple’s stock
price
The point of diversification is to eliminate us facing this risk as
an investor
If we hold 20 different assets, it is more likely that, when
Apple’s stock price plummets from their CEO being
indicted, IBM may develop a revolutionary product that
causes their stock price to soar

If you hold both, you have neutralized (or at least reduced)
company-specific risk!
Mentorship || Session 2
Diversification Example

Hold a single stock in the Energy Industry (graphs in
order of holdings)




Exxon Mobil: -14.4%
ConocoPhillips: -42.14%
Schlumberger: -18.8%
Or hold ALL of them

Energy Select ETF: -26.7%
Mentorship || Session 2
Measuring Total Risk


All risk can be expressed through standard deviation
of returns
Smaller variations, smaller risk, smaller rewards


Would you want your investments to be up 100% one day
and down 50% the next?
Sharpe Ratio

Method of measuring risk by looking at risk taken to
achieve excess returns over risk-free rate
Mentorship || Session 2
Putting it all together…




We now know how to eliminate unnecessary
company-specific risk through diversification
We know that risk-aversion is a measurement of
our willingness to invest in risky assets
We also know that Beta is a measurement of
undiversifiable risk
Using Beta, we can calculate our expected returns
using the CAPM
Mentorship || Session 2
Putting it all together…

Using all of that information:

We want to maximize our Risk/Reward given how
much risk we feel comfortable taking on



Reward is maximized for a given level of risk if we have
completely diversified away company-specific risk and are faced
only with systematic risk
You control this via your Portfolio Beta
Portfolio Beta


The weighted-average Beta of all of the securities in a
given portfolio
Example: If you hold two assets, A & B, where A has a
Beta of 1.5 and B has a Beta of 0.8, and you invest $5000
in each, your portfolio beta will be as follows:

BetaP = 0.5*1.5 + 0.5*0.8 = 1.15
Mentorship || Session 2
Final Note

How can two investors with different levels of riskaversion hold the same portfolio of risky
investments?


Combine it with a risk-free asset!
US Treasuries are considered risk-free


A riskless portfolio can be held if you invest all of
your money into a risk-free asset


Why?
Granted, your returns will be very low
What if you invest half of your money in the risk-free
asset and the other half in your risky portfolio?
Mentorship || Session 2
Accounting Fundamentals
Financial Statements, major line-items, and flow-through
Mentorship || Session 2
This is investing, why do I need accounting?

What’s available to us as investors?

Financial statements


Financial Reports


Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Statement of Cash Flows
e.g. 10-k’s, 10-q’s, etc
Public information on assets is usually in the form of
accounting line-items

Revenue, Earnings, Expenses, Interest, Total Debt, etc.
Mentorship || Session 2
The Big Picture

The Income Statement



The Balance Sheet



Details a company’s operating performance
Revenues & costs
“A snapshot in time”
Distribution of assets, liabilities, and stockholders’ equity
Statement of Cash Flows


Where is a firm’s cash coming from (inflows)?
Where is a firm’s cash going (outflows)?
Mentorship || Session 2
Income Statement

Displays aggregate financial performance for a firm
over a given interval of time

Usually one quarter or one fiscal year
Revenues
(Cost of Goods Sold)
= Gross Profit
(Operating Expenses)
= Operating Income (EBIT)
(Interest Expense)
= Pre-tax Income
(Income Taxes)
= Net Income
Mentorship || Session 2
Income Statement

Importance

What drives growth in a company?


Increased sales, decreased expenses, new sources of revenue
If we are an equity investor:

The value of our shares goes up if the business grows!



We are concerned with earnings (Net Income) because this is the
amount of income left after all expenses have been paid
If earnings is going down, the intrinsic value attributable to our
shares is going down
If we are a debt investor (holding a bond):

We are worried about bankruptcy

If revenue is decreasing, they may not be able to cover their interest
obligations in the future!
Mentorship || Session 2
Balance Sheet



Called a ‘snapshot in time’
Reflects the company’s assets, liabilities and
shareholder’s equity at a given point in time
Items are listed in order of liquidity
Assets = Liabilities + Shareholder Equity
Mentorship || Session 2
Balance Sheet
Mentorship || Session 2
Balance Sheet

Gives us three main things




What the company owns (assets)
What the company owes (liabilities)
How much shareholders have invested in the company
(Shareholders’ Equity)
Assets


Organized by ‘liquidity’
Current Assets are those that can be reasonably
expected to be converted into cash within a year


Inventories, short-term investments, accounts
receivable
Assets = Liabilities + Shareholders’ Equity
Mentorship || Session 2
Balance Sheet

Liabilities


Also organized by ‘liquidity’
Accounts for what is owed by the firm


Accounts payable, commercial paper, long-term debt, etc
Shareholders’ Equity


Measures the value of the firm to actual owners of the firm
(shareholders)
Common Stock


Additional paid-in capital


‘Par value’ of common equity issued
Excess amount paid upon issuance of shares over par value
Retained Earnings

Net income that is not distributed to shareholders in the form of
dividends is accounted for in retained earnings
Mentorship || Session 2
Statement of Cash Flows



Cash coming in and Cash flowing out
Cash is King
3 primary components:

CF from Operations



CF from Investing Activities


The cash flows from running the business
Starts with Net Income and accounts for any non-cash expenses
The cash flows from investments either into the company or
into other marketable securities
CF from Financing Activities

The cash flows from issuing debt, issuing stock, paying
dividends to shareholders, repurchasing shares, or repayment of
debt
Mentorship || Session 2
Statement of Cash Flows
Total change in cash
Cash on Balance Sheet from Previous
= Starting cash for the period
Period
Starts with Net Income from Income
+ Cash Flow from Operations
Statement from Current Period
+ Cash Flow from Investing Activities
+ Cash Flow from Financing Activities
Cash on Balance Sheet for Current
= Total Change in Cash
Period
Mentorship || Session 2
Statement of Cash Flows
Mentorship || Session 2
Walk-throughs


Seeing how common actions for corporations affect
all three of the financial statements
This is difficult!


Don’t expect to understand this perfectly the first time
through
Ask questions as we go
Mentorship || Session 2
What happens when we buy an asset?

Let’s say we buy a new production plant for $10,000

Balance Sheet



Income Statement



Cash $10,000
Property, Plant, Equipment $10,000
No changes here for now
Will see depreciation expense one year from now
Statement of Cash Flows


Under “Investing Activities”
Cash paid for PP&E $10,000
Mentorship || Session 2
What happens a year from purchase?

Depreciation

Used to account for an asset’s decrease in value over time


Also used to distribute the cost of acquiring an asset out
over time on the income statement


Think new plant vs old plant – which one works better?
Matching principle of accounting
Depreciation is recorded in two places


Periodically as an expense on the income statement
Periodically as a reduction to Property, Plant, and Equipment
Mentorship || Session 2
Depreciation Example

Last year we bought a plant for $10,000 and decide that
it will last us 10 years, and will be worth $0 at the end of
those 10 years



This means that our depreciation expense must reduce the
value of the asset from $10,000 to $0 over the course of 10
years
Most obvious way to do this: $10,000 / 10 years = $1,000 =
Annual Dep.
Next, at the end of the first year, things change

Depreciation expense of $1000 is recorded



Income Statement - Decreases Income before taxes
Balance Sheet - PP&E decreases by $1000 on the balance sheet
Statement of Cash Flows - Cash Flow from Operations increases
because we add back depreciation since it’s a non-cash expense
Mentorship || Session 2
Depreciation Example

Summary at end of year 1 (assume tax rate of 40%):



Pre-tax income decreases by $1,000
Net income decreases by $600
Cash Flow From Operations increases by $400

We didn’t actually lose cash from our depreciation expense




We already recorded the decrease in cash in capital expenditures when
we originally purchased the asset
Net income decreased by $600
BUT, we pocketed the $400 that we saved in taxes!
Balance Sheet



Cash increased by $400
PP&E decreased by $1,000
Retained Earnings decreased by $600



Remember, Net Income flows into R/E
$400 - $1000 = - $600 (assets = liabilities + shareholder’s equity)
Everything balances
Mentorship || Session 2
What happens when we borrow money?


A corporation decides to borrow $10,000. They
promise to pay 10% interest annually and repay the
original $10,000 at the end of 5 years.
How do we record an issuance of debt?




Cash Flow from Financing Activities
Cash inflow, so we record cash for the period
increasing by $10,000
If cash for the period increased, then we must increase
cash on the Balance Sheet by the same amount
Also, our long-term borrowings must increase by the
same amount on the Balance Sheet.

Remember, (Assets – Liabilities – Stockholders Equity) MUST
equal zero
Mentorship || Session 2
What happens when we borrow money?


At the end of year 1, interest must be paid
Income Statement




Statement of Cash Flows



Interest expense of $1000 (10% of 10,000) is recorded
But remember, interest expense is recorded before taxes!
Assuming a tax rate of 40%, Net Income will decrease by $600
Net Income flows into the top of Cash Flow from Operations
But Interest payments are not recorded on this statement because
we already accounted for it as a cash expense on the Income
Statement!
Balance Sheet


Total Cash decreased by $600 on the assets side
We make this balance by having Retained Earnings also decrease
by $600 (Retained Earnings is part of Shareholder’s Equity)

Net Income flows directly into Retained Earnings
Mentorship || Session 2
What happens when we borrow money?

At the end of year 10, principal must be repaid


We record the repayment of the original $10,000 in the
Cash Flow from Financing section in the Statement of
Cash Flows
Balance Sheet




Cash decreased by the $10,000 from the Statement of Cash
Flows
We paid off our debt so long-term borrowings decreases by
$10,000
Everything balances!
Income Statement

Principal repayment DOES NOT affect the income statement
Mentorship || Session 2
Tax Shields

As you saw in the past two examples, certain
expenses actually reduce our tax liability

Depreciation and Interest both decrease pre-tax income


This means we pay less taxes!
This is a benefit of holding more physical assets
(depreciation) and raising capital through debt
(interest)
