Kotze, Gerrit. "Commercial property : a required rate of return investigation / Gerrit Kotze." Thesis, North-West University, 2005. http://hdl.handle.net/10394/1202.

Abstract:
When faced with an investment opportunity in commercial real estate, the investor requires knowledge of the discount rate since it can be used to convert expected future cash flows from the property in today's terms and in doing so, place a value on the property. The so-called required rate of return would be the appropriate conversion rate since it compensates the investor for risk and, if attainable, will induce the investor to invest. An inaccurate assessment of the discount rate could, depending on the direction of the error, lead to a potential over or under estimation of the property value. A number of single or multiple variable frameworks for required return have been derived by other researchers for the US, UK and EU property markets. Each of the variables encountered in these frameworks acts as a proxy for some aspect of systematic risk associated with the investment. However, locally, such models are either not extensively published or well described and are limited to single explanatory variables. Some professionals prefer to avoid frameworks and simply divert to qualitative, gut-feel and experienced based considerations in order to derive at required return rate. This dissertation addressed the possible local need for an explanatory framework of required return on commercial property. The scope of work entailed: (i) a review of the literature to establish the theoretical determinants of return and (ii) an empirical study to test a short-list of parameters for Retail, Offices and Industrial sites in Cape Town, Pretoria, Bloemfontein and Durban, respectively. Three categories of explanatory variables were identified: (i) Capital market variables and alternative investment opportunities in the form of stocks on the JSE, (ii) economic activity indicators and (iii) property market fundamental parameters. The empirical study entailed a three-phase methodology, which included the following steps: (i) data sampling and processing, (ii) screening variables through the simple regression and correlation coefficients and (iii) multiple regression complemented by statistical significance testing. Between 69% and 98.2 % (alpha=O.1) of the variation in returns could be explained in terms of the variation by the explanatory variables that passed the rigorous screening process. The relative good results are likely to be related to the higher explanatory power of the multi-factor approach. The remaining unexplained portion of return can potentially be decreased by using larger samples and pursuing some of the other recommendations for additional research.

Abstract:
In this study, it is determined that excess returns on the OMX 30 are confirmed to rise in anticipation of monetary policy decisions made by the central banks of Sweden and The United States of America. Those findings were manifested at a greater magnitude on the first day prior to the announcements and on a statistically significant level one day prior to monetary policy decisions from the Federal Open Market Committee. Moreover, excess returns beyond the average rate were found to be substantially higher on the first and third day prior monetary policy decisions from the Swedish Central bank (Riksbanken) albeit not on a statistically significant level. The results drawn from the data in the study were reinforced by findings in similar tests conducted during times of global recession.

Howarth, Grant. "Modelling daily return variations in developing market currencies." Thesis, Rhodes University, 2013. http://hdl.handle.net/10962/d1008365.

Full text
Abstract:
This study examines the American Dollar (USD) denominated currency returns of five developing market currencies for the presence of the day-of-the-week effect. Daily data from January 1995 to February 2008 is examined, and is split into two subperiods, SP1 (1995 - 2002) and SP2 (2003 - February 2008). Currency returns are non-normally distributed across the full data set and SP1 , but tend towards normality in SP2. As such non-parametric tests are used to test the equality of the first four moments across days of the week. Tests on the first moment show that two of the currencies do not show any evidence of the day-of-the-week effect. However, evidence of the day-of-the-week effect is found in the other three currencies in SP1, although the effect disappears or weakens significantly in SP2. Little evidence of the day-of-the-week effect is found in tests on the second moment. The hypothesis of equal higher moments across currency returns is rejected for almost all of the weekday pairs for all five currencies in SP1 , but in SP2 the hypothesis of equal higher moments can only be rejected for a single pair of weekdays for one currency. This indicates the disappearance of the day-of-the-week effect across higher moments in SP2. Thus, the study finds that the day-of-the-week effect is present across the first moment and higher moments in the returns to most currencies in SP1 , but has disappeared for all five currencies in SP2.

Abstract:
With a "return to prison rate" at about 70% for the last several years the State of California is suffering from a debilitating rehabilitation process. With the State facing budgetary obstacles it is imp01iant to implement some type of rehabilitation process that can be sustained with cunent budget constraints but also be effective in reducing the imnate "return to prison rate". That is why this paper focuses on the Scholar Rehabilitation Success (SRS) process. The objective of the SRS process is to help the prison inmate: Increase his or her awareness of self Obtain job/vocational training in order to be a Responsible and Accountable citizen Be prepared to re-integrate into society and lower inmates likelihood of re-offending In order to be able to accomplish this objective the SRS process will be implemented utilizing the Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DODAF). DODAF is a great tool because it addresses how critical information (i.e. inmates needs) is exchanged between people and/or entities as well as type, frequency and nature of the information being exchanged. Additionally, the operational views enable the user to decompose crucial activities. In order to better understand this, the SRS process is shown below with each of the activity models (R1, R2, and R3) showing inputs and outputs. Using DODAF each of these activity models will be broken down ( decomposed) individually. That is the beauty of DOD AF, decomposition of activity models allows for thorough evaluation of each step in the SRS. Therefore, utilizing DOD AF techniques the SRS process can provide viable solutions while acknowledging budget constraints. Proposed solutions found in the SRS are a result of articles/journals from subject matter experts as well as interviews with parole agents. It is also recognized that proposed solutions must be scrutinized through proper state representative and implementation of solutions can be overturned. Additionally, it is not the intent of the paper to dismiss any mandated court orders as it is understood that the State has no option but to adhere to those provisions.

Abstract:
This thesis provides an empirical analysis of the relationship between the value premium and financial distress. Measures of leverage and default are used as proxies for financial distress. Using both an international data set, 1991 to 2006 and a long time series data set for the United States, 1927 – 2007, the thesis adds knowledge about the role of the value premium in asset pricing theory. Generalised autoregressive conditional heteroscedastic modelling (GARCH) is used and information gathered on the volatility of the value premium. A vector autoregressive (VAR) framework and Granger Causality tests are utilised in order to offer a deeper examination of the relationship between risk premium and economic activity. The results add further evidence to support the view that the value premium appears to be linked to variables associated with financial distress, although it is noted that this does not necessarily mean that participants in financial markets behave rationally.

Abstract:
This paper examines how the level and volatility of interest rates affect the stock return of banks using a GARCH-M model. Data is collected for Swedish and Danish banks stock return and interest rates on monthly basis for the period January 2000 to April 2018. The effects of interest rates on banks stock return is tested by two hypotheses, if the volatility of interest rates affects the volatility of the stock returns and if the level of the interest rate affects the excess return. The excess returns are also tested for significance of its own conditional variance in form of the mean term in the GARCH-M model. The results show that the volatility of interest rates has a significant effect on the excess return of the bank stocks while the level of the interest rate does not have a significant effect, the mean term is not significant, implying that some of the risk is not priced by an increased risk premium. The paper also discusses how the quantitative easing activities that has been performed by central banks could affect the bank stocks sensitivity to interest rates changes.

Abstract:
Several studies have shown that investing in agricultural research and development (R&D) has enhanced global agricultural productivity by a great deal. Continued investments in agricultural research have led to the development of over 26 successful plum cultivars since 1945 at the Agricultural Research Council’s Infruitec/Nietvoorbij in South Africa, and more continue to be developed to meet the specific needs of both producers and consumers. Yet very little is known about the returns on any of these research initiatives. The objective of the study was to show what the rate of return to plum research investments at Infruitec/Nietvoorbij is. This was done by providing a comprehensive understanding of the role Infruitec/Nietvoorbij and its predecessor institutes have played in making the sector productive and competitive internationally, and the changes in R&D investments as well as the institutions that influence plum production and exports. Secondary data collected from the industry representatives and Infruitec were used in estimating how research at Infruitec has contributed to changes in production output. The production function approach was used as an analysis tool and the rate of return (ROR) to investments since 1980 was found to be 14.23 percent with a 10 year lag. The rate of return being this high is indicative of underinvestment in plum research.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Portfolio managers and investors have developed numerous stock-picking strategies for managing stock market portfolios, many of which have been researched extensively in international markets. For example, research has shown that value stocks have higher returns than growth stocks in markets around the world (Fama & French 1998). A very popular value investing strategy is the ‘magic formula’ developed and published by Joel Greenblatt, in 2006, in his book The little book that beats the market. This strategy is based on constructing portfolios where return on capital and earnings yield are used as selection criteria. Greenblatt (2010) provided results that showed that the magic formula strategy was able to persistently outperform the United States stock market from 1988 to 2009. This study provides a back-test of the magic formula on stocks listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange for the period 1 January 1998 to 31 December 2013. The return was benchmarked against the FTSE/JSE J203 All Share Total Return Index and several other popular value investing strategies over the same period. It was found that, even after adjusting for risk, the magic formula was able to consistently outperform the market index. While the magic formula was able to outperform the market index, it was not the top performing value investing strategy evaluated in this study. The magic formula was outperformed by the combination of size and book-to-market, book-to-market alone, dividend yield, and earnings yield value investing strategies. While the magic formula, and the above mentioned value investing strategies, were able to outperform the market index in terms of overall geometric mean returns, there is not enough evidence to conclude that these value investing strategies outperformed the market index by a statistically significant margin.

Approved for public release; distribution in unlimited.
In an environment of scarce resources and rising federal deficits the people not only expect, but demand greater accountability for the spending of public funds. This demand has created a trend in the public sector, not only in the United States, but worldwide as well, towards the importation of private sector business practices to improve accountability-oriented analysis. One example is increased emphasis on return on investment (ROI) analysis in public sector organizations. Development and application of ROI analysis is challenging in the public sector since most government organizations do not generate profit necessary for calculation of ROI in the manner in which it is done in the private sector. This thesis develops the methodology necessary for use of ROI analysis in the public sector. ROI methodology is applied for test evaluation with the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR) in San Diego. The test demonstrates that ROI can be applied successfully to assess the relative efficiency of value-added work and to improve the process of choosing between investment alternatives. Properly designed ROI analysis reveals how and for what goods and services money is spent and provides a means for comparing the value derived from investment and work performed.

This study investigates the influence of exchange rate exposures on stock returns of listed companies in Taiwan. This study first measures exchange rate exposure from 1999 to 2009 and that most of the coefficients of exchange rate exposure in all overlapping periods are positive. This finding means that the depreciation of NT dollar has a positive impact on companies’ stock returns, and this result is similar to previous studies. This study further examines the factors affect exchange rate exposure by using regression model. The result show a negative coefficient of hedge activity in short-term, but a positive coefficient in long-term. These findings indicate that using the derivatives could reduce the exchange rate exposure in the short run, but in the long run will increase the exchange rate exposure. The results also find larger company has lower exchange rate exposure and gain or loss of financial assets and liabilities will decrease exchange rate exposure in the long run.

Recently, the word clouds and big data analysis have been growing fast. The applications are extended to all of the fields of corporate management. The traditional ways to examine stock return are based on financial indicators. This study explores the relationship between individual stock return and exposure rate of company in public newspaper. The exposure rate is proxy by the number of listed news during a month. The samples are from the listed company in Taiwan Stock Market. The data are selected from the period from 2005 to 2015 to test the hypothesis: there are positive impacts of listed number of newspaper on stock return. Based on the panel regression, the empirical results show that higher listed number of newspaper, higher stock return. For company with higher listing on newspaper, the effect of exposure rate on stock return is become weaker due to the message dilution. Accounting to word clouds analysis, the stock return did influence by some keywords shown in the newspaper.

The purpose of this paper is to examine the market return and volatility response to the monetary police changes including the discount rate changes and the federal funds rate target changes and using the change actually occurred dates be a event date. The result indicates that the reaction of volatility is more violent than the reaction of return and the reaction in irregular meeting is more extensive than the regular. The discount rate may be a predictor to the federal fund rate target change and the effect of rate increase and rate decrease is asymmetric. Finally, it can be found that the future markets did not fully react the expectation of rate change, there are other factors influence the market return and volatility.

There has been questioning about why the United States, a large debtor country, has been receiving net international investment income rather than making a net international investment payment. It has been noted in the literatures that the U.S. return advantage mainly comes from the direct investment. So far, researches have attributed this phenomena to one or some combinations of three hypotheses: (1) the risk-compensating hypothesis, which asserts that U.S. direct investments abroad are riskier than foreign direct investments in the U.S. so require the higher return to compensate their higher risks; (2) the income-shifting hypothesis, which posits that the return gap is the net result of multinational companies’ shifting profits through transfer pricing to minimize their tax cost and maximize their profits ,and (3) the age-effect hypothesis, which proposes that foreign companies in the U.S. are less profitable than U.S. corporations abroad because they are relatively new established and it takes times for new investment to turn a profit. In this paper, we integrate all three hypotheses in the same regression equation. We find the foreign corporate tax rate has a negative impact on the return on U.S. FDI abroad (RUSDIA). We think this result lends support to the income-shifting hypothesis. Our results also indicate that the age-effect has a significant impact on the return on foreign FDI in the U.S. (RFDIUS). However, we find the risk premium hypothesis is inconsistent with our results, which show that the default rate has negative effect on RUSDIA and insignificant effect on RFDIUS. In addition, our results suggest that the rate of return gap favoring the United States can be attributable to two other factors: (1) perhaps due to the externality of older U.S. FDI abroad, U.S. companies abroad have “benefitted” rather than “suffered” from new investment abroad, and (2) the marginal effect of foreign economic growth on U.S. return abroad is higher than the marginal effect of US economic growth on foreign return in the U.S., and that, on average, foreign economic growth has been stronger than U.S. growth.

This study is to adopt GARCH model to look into the relationship between the return rate and volatility of gold, stock index, currency exchange rate, interest rate, petroleum, and establish the best GARCH prediction model. The data duration is 2000/01/03~2011/12/23.The empirical result indicates that there is inverse relationship between the current return rate of gold and the return rate of t-6 period spot gold return rate, the return rate of previous period US dollar index, the return rate of previous period US 10-year bond yield. There is positive relationship between the return rate of current gold and the return rate of previous period stock index. In terms of volatility, the previous period volatility of US 10-year bond yield has inverse influence on the volatility of current period spot gold. In another words, spot gold not only can avoid stock index risk, but also can avoid interest risk. The volatility of previous period West Texas Intermediate future and previous period gold has positive influence on that of spot gold, which indicates the higher volatility risk of previous period West Texas Intermediate future and previous period gold, the higher volatility risk of spot gold. We adopt simple regression analysis in terms of prediction ability. The prediction period is 2011/1/3~2011/12/23, and prediction result is not obvious. If we shorten the prediction period to six months (prediction period 2011/1/3~2011/6/30), the p value is obvious. The most suitable model is AR(1,6)-GARCH(1,1), the prediction result is ordinary. Therefore when the market is unstable, this can serve as reference for investors in terms of investment or hedge.

Abstract:
In this dissertation, the risk adjusted rate of return (RAROR) that utilizes the directional distance function (DDF) approaches is developed to integrate conventional RAROR in a consistent manner. The sensitivity and the probabilistic analysis for DDF-RAROR are also illustrated. The DDF-RAROR is used to evaluate security performance of media stocks (1997--2001). Conglomeration in media industry has attracted public concern for a century. The results indicate that stock investors prefer conglomerate stocks, and this preference is explained by the market sentiment rather than by the underlying business prospect. This observation is confirmed through both nonparametric ranking test and nonparametric regression technique. Especially, the underlying return on equity (ROE) significantly influences the corresponding security performance.

This thesis aims to investigate the relationship and asymmetry between crude oil price, exchange rate and stock return. We adopt daily data on Taiwan Stock Exchange Capitalization Weighted Stock Index (TAIEX), Brent oil price and foreign exchange rates for U.S. Dollar, Euro and Japanese Yen against New Taiwan Dollar covering the period from 1994 to 2016. We study the asymmetry between oil price, exchange rate and stock return by using vector autoregression and threshold autoregression. The result shows that there exists significant asymmetry between crude oil price, exchange rate and stock return under some threshold levels. By considering the threshold effect, we can observe the asymmetry relationship between varibles.

This research studies companies applying for IPO (Initial Public Offerings) in Taiwan, analyzes stock price performances before and after companies’ initial public offerings, and looks into the reasons causing stock prices to fluctuate before and after. During the empirical analysis period between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2011, there were 129 IPO companies listed on Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE) or GreTai Securities Market. After individual interviewing relevant underwriters, emerging market stock dealers, and investors, the conclusion is as follows. 1.The stock prices of initial public offering companies show the upward trend before the IPO dates. Empirical analysis indicates positive spreads between the emerging stock prices of 20 trading days prior to the last trading day and that of the last trading day, as well as the emerging stock prices of 30 trading days. The significance level of each is 0.8% and 0.2%, which confirms the upward trend of those stock prices. After individual interviewing, the possible reasons of the upward trend before the IPO date can be summed up, such as investors expect honeymoon effect after the IPO, IPO companies aggressively carry out various marketing activities, the uncertainty of IPO application eliminates, and investors initiate purchasing industry potential and high performance emerging stocks in advance. 2.The stock prices of initial public offering companies show the downward trend after the IPO dates. Empirical analysis indicates negative spreads between the stock prices of 10 trading days after the IPO and the stock price of the last trading day in emerging market, as well as the stock prices of 20 and 30 trading days respectively. The significance level of each is 0.2%, 2.7% and 2.9%, which confirms the downward trend of those stock prices. After individual interviewing, the possible reason of the downward trend after the IPO date can be summed up primarily as the emerging stocks cannot be sold in a large volume in the emerging market. Investors who have bought a lot of emerging stocks before the IPO date, and investors who participate the IPO underwriting by lot drawing or book building may choose to sell stocks during the first 5 day IPO period to lock the profits with limited risks. This first 5 day IPO period is regulated as the stabilizing period and no up/down price limits. And the action may cause stock prices to drop.

Title of Thesis : High-low volatility and stock VS. exchange rate return   Total Pages : 55 Name of Institute : Graduate Institute of Industrial Economics, Tamkang University Graduate Date : June 2003       Degree Conferred : Master Name of Student : Ching-Chung Hung     Advisor : Dr. Jer-Yuh Wan          洪 慶 鐘            萬 哲 鈺 博士 Abstract: This paper uses a two-stage approach to analyze whether the relationship between returns of stock and exchange rate is different under different volatility regime. At first-stage, we use the markov-switching model to separate the different volatility regime for each variable. Then, at second stage we adopt the garch model to examine the relationship between the stock and exchange rate returns. The main conclusions of this paper are following: 1. The returns of all variables in this research have both high and low volatility regime. 2. Under different volatility regime, the returns of stock has different impacts on the returns of exchange rates, and vice versa.

The Mandatory Vehicle Liability has changed dramatically in recent year,sothe academic argues violently about this insurance should be run in public orin private. Although insures know that the underwriting profit rate was zero in the rate-making, they still argue it should be run in private. The main reason is the time difference in premium receives and expenses,and insurers can utilize the funds to invest in other assets. The investments can bring lotsof profit and compensate the zero profit rate or any possibly induced loss. In the rate-making of property insurance, The investment profit is often neglected, so financial pricing models are employed in this reserch to combine underwriting profit and investment income, and expected the rate of returncan be evaluated more precisely. Besides the premium receive and expenses from underwriting side, the utilization of captial in the perspective is also evaluated in this research. Based on the financial data collected from whole property insurance industry and three publicinsurance companies, so me financial pricing models, such asTarget Total Rate of Return (TRR), Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), Discount cash Flow Model(DCF), and Option Pricing Model (OPM), are employedto compare the underwriting profit margin and the actual rate of return in property insurance companies.Moreover, Mean Square Error (MSE) and Theil''s U statistic are utilized to examine the explanation ability of each model.The period in this researchcovers 1990 to 1995. The results of this study indicate that higher ranking usually tends to goto the option pricing model in the whole property insurance industry; in addition, thought the target underwriting profit margin intuitionallywon''t fluctuate with economic conditions. However, in the light of the average, CAPM and Target underwriting profit margin are closer to the average of the sample period. Next, if the sample period is separated into two time intrvals,the deviation of CAPM shrinks obviously in the second interval. Therefore, theincreasing competition in the market shouldn''tbe overlooked. Drawn from the results of this study, the explanation ability of each model is quite discrete; the existence of deviation is inevitable for the methodof collecting data, the surrounding circumstances of companies, and the developing situation of the whole market. On the whole, discount cash flow model performs quiet well in every stage, when employed in not only the insurance industry but also in individual companies.

This study aims to explore whether the rate of return of a portfolio made with strategy can be better than the rate of return of market. It separately counted out the average rate of return during holding period, and compared the annualized return of each portfolio with Y9999 (TAIEX) to observe whether their performances were better than the market’s. The validity of this study covers all stocks of companies listed on TAIEX before the end of 2010, and the period of valid data is from 2006 to 2015.It attempts to explore, whether the portfolio composed of three financial indicators, such as return on equity (ROE), cash dividend yield and price-earnings ratio (PER) does perform better than the market. It explores the differences among portfolios held during different periods, selected through different financial indicators and impacts on rate of return brought by these portfolios. The result of experiment shows, the portfolio selected with fundamental analysis did significantly perform better than the market, besides the performance became better and better along with a longer period of holding. Portfolios with a PER under 10 selected with different financial indicators had larger room of making profit than portfolios with a PER under 8. If we further added the variable, cash dividend yield, it proved the portfolio with higher cash dividend yield during a time had higher chance to make profit from a long-term perspective.

This paper employs ARMA-GARCH(1,1) model to analyze stock market, exchange rate market and interest rate market in Taiwan, and the interactions among these three markets based on daily data from 1990 to 2004. We also incorporate Dow-Jones Composite Index in our model to investigate to what extent that the financial markets in Taiwan were influenced by U.S. stock market. Our major findings from empirical study are as follows. First, there exist significantly return spillovers as well as volatility spillovers among these three markets. Second, a volatility feedback effect is found between stock market and exchange rate market in Taiwan. Third, with Dow-Jones Composite Index incorporated, we find that the stock market in Taiwan is positively affected by U.S stock market; while the exchange rate market in Taiwan is negatively affected. Finally, there is a structural change in the interest rate market in Taiwan since March 1999. And since then, not only the response of interest rate volatility to the shocks of interest rate become stronger than before, but also the spillovers of interest rate on both stock market and exchange rate market become larger than before. In addition, the impacts of U.S. stock market on financial markets have enhanced, compared the period before March 1999.

The Taiwan Employee Retirement Income Security Act (TERISA) was enacted in July, 2005 to replace the existing retirement system regulated by Labor Standard Act (LSA) since August, 1984. The former act is a defined contribution system and the latter act is a modified defined benefit system. This paper contains (1) the comparisons of the retirement pension funds under the two acts with fixed interest rates and fixed salary increase rates (2) a study of minimum rate of return guarantees for TERISA with interest rate which follows stochastic process (3) sensitivity analyses of the benefit adequacy under possible scenarios.

A research report submitted to the Faculty of Commerce. University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Master of Commerce.
Accounting is a human creation designed to satisfy human need, and which must therefore, above all be useful. Financial statements should, therefore, provide information that is useful in making economic decisions. Academics and practitioners are however critical of the output of the accounting information system and propose that accounting profitability is of limited economic significance. They claim it is no longer sufficient to provide antiquated historical cost data. that in Joost respects cannot be processed further. There is no urgent need to develop both analytical systems for thinking about and anticipating changes in the business world and the mechanisms and structures to assure that we respond appropriately from that standpoint of useful financial reporting 'The Accounting Rate of Return (ARR) may assist in evolving the usefulness of financial reporting. In the report the usefulness of the Accounting Rate of Return is established. The purpose of this report is achieved through normative and empirical studies. The result of comparing the ARR to the opportunity cost of capital has been suggested to be absolute. but in reality this is not feasible. Investors would use the ARR, as an input in rather than the decisive factor for deciding whether to buy. hold or sell investment. The proposals advocated in the paper communicate relevant and useful information for the purposes of investment performance appraisal.

This paper develops a multi-period maximum-utility hedging strategy and derives the formula for optimal hedge ratios under this framework by incorporating the impacts of the risk attitude of individuals, expected return of the futures prices, and interest rate into account. We also show that the formula for the multi-period hedging ratio reduces to that of the single-period hedging ratio when the serial correlation in spot and futures price changes is absent and the second moments of the two price changes possess GARCH effects. The empirical evidences show that the out-of-sample hedging performance of the maximum-utility hedging strategy is superior than that of the competing minimum-variance hedging method for both the S&P-500 and FTSE-100 markets, no matter what risk attitudes the individual has.
