Calculating Rates of Calculating Rates of ReturnReturn Financial data is usually provided in Financial data is usually provided in
forms of prices (i.e. bond price, forms of prices (i.e. bond price, share price, FX, stock price index, share price, FX, stock price index, etc.)etc.)
Financial analysis is usually Financial analysis is usually conducted on rate of return conducted on rate of return – Statistical issues (spurious regression Statistical issues (spurious regression
results can occur)results can occur)– Easier to compare (more transparent)Easier to compare (more transparent)
Prices Prices Rate of Rate of ReturnReturn
Arithmetic rate of returnArithmetic rate of returnRRtt = (P = (Ptt - P - Pt-1t-1)/P)/Pt-1t-1
Continuous compounded rate of returnContinuous compounded rate of returnRRtt = ln(P = ln(Ptt/P/Pt-1t-1))

Summary : Risk Free Summary : Risk Free Rate, Nominal vs Real Rate, Nominal vs Real ReturnsReturns
Risk Free Asset Risk Free Asset – Risk free asset = T-bill or bank depositRisk free asset = T-bill or bank deposit– Fisher equation : Fisher equation :
Nominal risk free return = real return + expected inflation Nominal risk free return = real return + expected inflation
Real return : rewards for ‘waiting’ (e.g 3% - fairly constant)Real return : rewards for ‘waiting’ (e.g 3% - fairly constant)
Indexed bonds earn a known real return (approx. equal to Indexed bonds earn a known real return (approx. equal to the long run growth rate of real GDP). the long run growth rate of real GDP).
Nominal Risky Return (e.g. equity)Nominal Risky Return (e.g. equity)Nominal “risky” return = risk free rate + risk premiumNominal “risky” return = risk free rate + risk premium
risk premium = “market risk” + liquidity risk + default riskrisk premium = “market risk” + liquidity risk + default risk
