...Principles of Managerial Finance Solution Lawrence J. Gitman CHAPTER 5 Risk and Return INSTRUCTOR’S RESOURCES Overview This chapter focuses on the fundamentals of the risk and return relationship of assets and their valuation. For the single asset held in isolation, risk is measured with the probability distribution and its associated statistics: the mean, the standard deviation, and the coefficient of variation. The concept of diversification is examined by measuring the risk of a portfolio of assets that are perfectly positively correlated, perfectly negatively correlated, and those that are uncorrelated. Next, the chapter looks at international diversification and its effect on risk. The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is then presented as a valuation tool for securities and as a general explanation of the risk-return trade-off involved in all types of financial transactions.
