问题如下:
An analyst gathers the following information for an equal-weighted index comprised of assets Able, Baker, and Charlie:
The total return of the index is:
选项:
A.
5.0%
B.
7.9%
C.
11.4%
解释:
The total return of an index is calculated on the basis of the change in price of the underlying securities plus the sum of income received or the sum of the weighted total returns of each security. The total return of Able is 27.5 percent; of Baker is 0 percent; and of Charlie is 6.7 percent:
Able: (12 — 10 + 0.75)/10 = 27.5%
Baker: (19 — 20 + 1)/20 = 0%
Charlie: (30 — 30 + 2)/30 = 6.7%
An equal-weighted index applies the same weight (1/3) to each security's return; therefore, the total return = 1/3 X (27.5% + 0% + 6.7%) = 11.4%.
为什么这两种指数算return一个是期初期末价格相减除以期初直接求return,而另一个却要一个一个算然后求平均?老是搞不清楚。还有就是市值加权指数的return是和价格加权一样的对吧?
