5.. Consider the two (excess return) index-model regression results for stocks A and B. The riskfree rate over the period was 8%, and the market’s average return was 16%. Performance is measured using an index model regression on excess returns.

Stock A Stock B
Index model regression estimates 1% + 1.2(rM – rf) 2% + .8(rM – rf)
R-square 0.677 0.487
Residual standard deviation, σ(e) 12% 20.8%
Standard deviation of excess returns 23.3% 28.3%

Calculate the following statistics for each stock: (Round your answer to 4 decimal places. Omit the "%" sign in your response.)

Stock A Stock B
i. Alpha 1 % 2 %
ii. Information ratio ______? ______?
iii. Sharpe measure ______? ______?
iv. Treynor measure 8.8330 10.500

(((NUMBERS BELOW ARE NOT THE CORRECT ANSWERS)))

Information Ratio = Alpha/Standard deviation residual

For stock A, = 1/10.3 = 0.0971 For stock B, = 2/19.1 = 0.1047

Sharpe Measure = Excess returns / Standard deviation of excess returns

For stock A, = (1+1.2*(16-8))/21.6 = 0.4907 For stock B, = (2+0.8*(16-8))/24.9 = 0.3373
