CAPMMARKET RISK PREMIUM
What is a reasonableestimate of its
value ?
04/08/23 Robert C. Radcliffe 2
What it is “Conceptually”
The annual rate of return which investors require in order to be willing to own shares of an “Average Risk” stock
The expected return on the “MARKET PORTFOLIO” minus the “RISK-FREE RATE”

What is it “NUMERICALLY”
Issues in estimating RPm: Approach: Prospective or Historical Arithmetic or Geometric average past
measures Does it change (what periods should be
used) Calculation of statistical confidence
intervals Should long-term investors demand a
smaller risk premium than short-term investors
04/08/23 Robert C. Radcliffe 5
What Approach s/b Used
ProspectiveEstimate expected return on stock market
and subtract “the” current risk-free rate
Historical Calculate the average risk premium which
investors have actually earned in the past
04/08/23 Robert C. Radcliffe 6
Prospective Estimates of RPmExpected Future Annual Market Return 13%
minus
Current Nominal Risk-free Interest Rate 7%Prospective estimate of RPm 6%
Expected Future Market Return might consist of:
Current Dividend Yield on stock index such as S&P 500 3%
plus long-run dividend growth (must be constant growth) 10%
Expected Market Return 13%
04/08/23 Robert C. Radcliffe 7
Prospective Estimates of RPm:Problems in Application
Requires estimates of future dividend growth-- either a constant growth assumption,-- or specified yearly dividend growth
These are difficult to estimate
Analyst forecasts of future dividend growthhave not been very accurate
Analysts often forecast futureexpected returns from past returnsSo why not simply look at past return data
04/08/23 Robert C. Radcliffe 8
Using Historical Earned Risk Premiums as Sample Estimates of RPm
The logic is: “On average investors will receive what
they expect. So lets look at what they have received to estimate the risk
premium they have desired in the past.”
Earned Risk Premium in year t=
Actual Stock Market Return in tminus
Estimate of Risk-free Rate in year t

How Should the Average “Earned Risk Premium” be Measured
Arithmetic Average
R = (+25% - 20%) / 2
= 2.5%
Geometric Average
G = [(1.25)(0.8)]1/2 - 1
= 0.0%

The choice of R or G does matter
04/08/23 Robert C. Radcliffe 13
Which is Better: R or G
G represents a compound return.
For capital budgeting purposes, we are also using compound returns.
For consistentcy, use geometric average values when estimating the Market Risk Premium RPm
This issue is much debated, no common concensus.

Do Market Risk Premiums Change They probably do change
as investor perceptions of market risk change
However, any past estimates are so variable and uncertain that we simply can not identify changes.
Conclusion, use all returns available

Exercises
Review the worksheet “RiskPremium” on the file LectureMaterials.xls
04/08/23 Robert C. Radcliffe 19
Review Questions1. Why are arithmetic means of security returns greater than geometric means? Develop an exampleof this using numbers other than presented in thesenotes.
2. Which type of mean return is more meaningfulto investors? (Hint: Does the investment horizonmatter.)
3. What is the logic associated with using past “earned”risk premiums” as estimates of the current market riskpremium?
04/08/23 Robert C. Radcliffe 20
Review Questions4. Go to the “Yrly_INDXRTNS” worksheet in theFinlMgtData.xls spreadsheet. Calculate yearly earned risk premiums for all years possible as follows:
Risk Premium Earned = a. SP500 return minus Tbill returnb. SP500 return minus Tbond return
5. Find the arithmetic average and standard deviationfor both approaches.
6. Find the geometric average earned risk premium.
