  4. Money Market Instruments • Treasury bills • Certificates of deposit • Commercial Paper • Bankers Acceptances • Eurodollars • Repurchase Agreements (RPs) and Reverse RPs • Federal Funds

  5. Money Market Instrument Yields • Yields on Money Market Instruments are not always directly comparable • Factors influencing yields • Par value vs. investment value • 360 vs. 365 days assumed in a year (366 leap year) • Bond equivalent yield

  6. - P 10,000 360 x r = BD n 10,000 rBD = bank discount rate P = market price of the T-bill n = number of days to maturity Example 90-day T-bill, P = $9,800 - 10,000 9,800 360 x r = = 8% BD 90 10,000 Bank Discount Rate (T-Bills)

  7. Bond Equivalent Yield • Can’t compare T-bill directly to bond • 360 vs 365 days • Return is figured on par vs. price paid • Adjust the bank discounted rate to make it comparable

  8. Bond Equivalent Yield P 10,000 - 365 x r = BEY n P P = price of the T-bill n = number of days to maturity Example Using Sample T-Bill 10,000 - 9,800 365 x r = BEY 9,800 90 rBEY = .0204 x 4.0556 = .0828 = 8.28%

  9. Capital Market - Fixed Income Instruments • Publicly Issued Instruments • US Treasury Bonds and Notes • Agency Issues (Fed Gov) • Municipal Bonds • Privately Issued Instruments • Corporate Bonds • Mortgage-Backed Securities

  10. Capital Market - Equity • Common stock • Residual claim • Limited liability • Preferred stock • Fixed dividends - limited • Priority over common • Tax treatment

  11. Stock Indexes • Uses • Track average returns • Comparing performance of managers • Base of derivatives • Factors in constructing or using an Index • Representative? • Broad or narrow? • How is it constructed?

  12. Examples of Indexes - Domestic • Dow Jones Industrial Average (30 Stocks) • Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite • NASDAQ Composite • NYSE Composite • Wilshire 5000

  13. Examples of Indexes - Int’l • Nikkei 225 & Nikkei 300 • FTSE (Financial Times of London) • Dax • Region and Country Indexes • EAFE • Far East • United Kingdom

  14. Bond Indexes • Lehman Brothers • Merrill Lynch • Salomon Brothers • Specialized Indexes • Merrill Lynch Mortgage

  15. Construction of Indexes • How are stocks weighted? • Price weighted (DJIA) • Market-value weighted (S&P500, NASDAQ) • Equally weighted (Value Line Index) • How returns are averaged? • Arithmetic (DJIA and S&P500) • Geometric (Value Line Index)

  16. Averaging Methods Component Return A=10% B= (-5%) C = 20% Arithmetic Average [.10 + (-.05) + .2] / 3 = 8.33% Geometric Average [(1.1) (.95) (1.2)]1/3 - 1 = 7.84%

  17. Options Basic Positions Call (Buy) Put (Sell) Terms Exercise Price Expiration Date Assets Futures Basic Positions Long (Buy) Short (Sell) Terms Delivery Date Assets Derivatives Securities
