1 HW # Saisical Financial Modeling ( P Theodossiou) 1 The following are annual reurns for US finance socks (F) and he S&P500 socks index (M) Year Reurn Finance Socks Reurn S&P500 Year Reurn Finance Socks Reurn S&P Consider he single index model (SIM) for sock reurns, R R e F, F F M, F, which is equivalen o he sandard regression model Y X u where Y R, X R, u e, and Use he aached excel spreadshees o F, M, F, F F 1 Esimae and inerpre he inercep and slope of he above regression model Consruc he daa scaer diagram, graph he sample regression model and plo he residuals 3 Verify numerically ha Y Yˆ and uˆ 0 4 Verify numerically ha y yˆ uˆ and compue he coefficien of deerminaion or R 5 Compue he sample regression variance, sandard errors and -values of he inercep and slope 6 Tes he hypoheses ha he sample regression line inercep and slope are differen from zero

2 Repea he above exercise using he daa below P/E raios and TL/TA of a random sample of 30 S&P500 companies OBS P/E TL/TA OBS P/E TL/TA Model o be esimaed is: PE TLTAu

3 HW # - SOLUTION - SINGLE INDEX MODEL (SIM) 1 Esimae and inerpre he inercep and slope of he above model The single index model (SIM) for any sock or a porfolio of socks is specified as: R R e F, F F M, F, where R F, and R M, are he annual reurns for a porfolio of financial socks and he S&P 500 sock marke index, α F and β F are he inercep and slope (bea) of he model and e F, is an error erm wih he usual regression sochasic properies The S&P500 sock index is used as a proxy for he reurn of a well diversified porfolio of he financial asses in he US For simpliciy of noaion, he SIM model is expressed in he sandard regression form as Y X u where Y = R F,, X = R M,, u = e F,, α = α F, and β = β F The parameers α = α F and β = β F are esimaed using,, x y X Y TXY ˆ x X TX 3, ,54955 ˆ Y ˆ X The accompanying excel spreadshee provides wha s needed for he compuaion The esimaed sample regression equaion for R F, is Rˆ R F, M, is an esimaor of he condiional expecaion E R R R F, M, M, and provides condiional forecass of R F for given values of R M, The inercep of he equaion gives a forecas for he reurn of financial socks when he marke reurn is zero, ie, R F = for R M = 0 3

4 Scaer Plo and Regression of he Financial Socks and he S&P 500 sock Marke Reurns R F, = R M, RF, R M, -30 The slope gives he rade-off beween he reurn R F and he marke reurn, ie, ˆ R R 0567 F The laer implies ha an 1% increase in he marke reurn will be followed by a 0567% increase in he financial socks reurn Consruc he scaer diagrams for he daa and regression model and he residuals The figure above provides he scaer plo of R M, vs R F, and he plo for he sample regression line Rˆ R F, M, M, which passes hrough he daa poins Noe ha here roughly as many daa poins above as here are below he regression line The verical disance beween he daa poins and he sample regression line represen visually he residuals u Y Yˆ These are ploed on he scaer diagram ˆ below: 4

5 Plo of Regression Residuals Residual u = R F, - ( R M,) u R M, 3 Verify numerically ha Y Yˆ and uˆ 0 I is clear from he excel spreadshee Y ˆ Y = 4048 and uˆ 0 4 Verify numerically ha y yˆ uˆ Calculae he coefficien of deerminaion or R The resuls in he excel spreadshee verify ha yˆ uˆ, ,4799 = 11,574 y The model s R-square value is R y ˆ y 1 uˆ y 1 ESS TSS 9, ,57416 or 1809% The above number indicaes ha he oal variaion of financial sock reurns explained by he regression model is 1809% 5

6 5 Compue he sample regression variance, sandard errors and -values of he inercep and slope The sample regression variance is and s uˆ ˆ 9, T k 30 s The sandard errors of he esimaes for he inercep and slope are X SE ˆ s T x 14, , SE ˆ 1 s x , Their respecive -values are and ˆ ˆ SE ˆ ˆ ˆ SE ˆ Tes he hypoheses ha he inercep and slope of he regression model are differen from zero Because he ˆ 1 < c,8,5% = 048, he null hypohesis, ha he inercep is saisically equal o zero, is acceped a he 5% level of significance Noe ha (df) ˆ follows he disribuion wih 8 degrees of freedom Because he ˆ 49 > c,8,5% = 048, he alernaive hypohesis, ha he slope is saisically differen from zero, is acceped a he 5% level of significance Noe ha of freedom (df) ˆ follows he disribuion wih 8 degrees 6

7 PRICE/EARNINGS (P/E) RATIO RELATIVE TO THE TOTAL LIABILITIES RATIO MODEL 1 Esimae and inerpre he inercep and slope of he above model The price o earnings (P/E ) raio model P E TL TA u where TL/TA is oal liabiliies o oal asses raio for a randomly seleced firms included in he S&P 500 sock marke index The model posulaes a linear relaionship beween he P/E raio and he financial leverage of a firm Is sandard regression formulaion is Y X u where Y = P/E and X = TL/TA Using he resuls, included in excel spreadshee, we find ha,, x y ˆ x ,89506 ˆ Y ˆ X Thus, he esimaed P/E model (ie, sample regression model) is PE TLTA This equaion gives he forecased P/E raio of a firm in relaion o is TL/TA raio (ie, given is TL/TA raio) For example, a firm wih 50% leverage is expeced o have a P/E raio of PE % The inercep of he equaion, which is equal o , gives he forecased value of a firm s P/E wih zero TL/TA In oher words, a non-levered firm (ie, zero deb firm) is expeced o have a P/E raio of The slope of he sample regression line ˆ PE TL TA gives he rade-off beween TL/TA raio and he P/E raio I implies ha an increase in he TL/TA of a firm by 10 unis (eg, from 40% o 50%) is expeced o resul in 1009 unis reducion in is P/E raio 7

8 Scaer Plo and Regression of he P/E and he TL/TA Raios for a Sample S&P 500 Socks P/E = TL/TA P/E TL/TA Residuals, u = P/E - ( TL/TA ) u TL/TA Consruc he scaer diagrams for he daa and regression line he residuals The op figure provides he scaer plo of TL/TA and P/E and a graphical illusraion of he sample regression line The sample regression line has a negaive slope indicaing ha, on average, firms wih higher leverage 8

9 raios have lower P/E raios The second figure provides a plo of he regression s residuals u Y Yˆ 3 Verify numerically ha Y Yˆ and uˆ 0 ˆ I is clear from he excel spreadshee Y ˆ Y = 4117 and uˆ 0 4 Verify numerically ha y yˆ uˆ Calculae he coefficien of deerminaion or R The resuls in he excel spreadshee verify ha yˆ uˆ = 4467 y The model s R-square value is R y ˆ y ESS TSS or 1117% The above number indicaes ha he oal variaion of he P/E raios is explained by he regression model is or 1117% 5 Compue he sample regression variance, sandard errors and -values of he inercep and slope The sample regression variance is s uˆ ˆ T k 30 and s The sandard errors of he esimaes for he inercep and slope are X SE ˆ s T x 84, , SE ˆ 1 s x ,89506 Their respecive -values are ˆ ˆ SE ˆ

10 and ˆ ˆ SE ˆ Tes he hypoheses ha he inercep and slope of he regression model are differen from zero Because he ˆ 664 > c,8,5% = 048, he alernaive hypohesis, ha he inercep is saisically significan, is acceped a he 5% level of significance Noe ha of freedom (df) ˆ follows he disribuion wih 8 degrees Because he ˆ 188 < c,8,5% = 048, he null hypohesis, ha he slope is saisically equal o zero, is acceped a he 5% level of significance Noe ha (df) ˆ follows he disribuion wih 8 degrees of freedom 10

11 MATHEMATICAL RESULTS For he mahemaical proof of he above resul, we use he already esablished resuls (a) X TX and Y TY (his resul follows easily from he definiion of he sample mean) (b) Yˆ ˆ ˆ X (sample regression line) (c) u ˆ ˆ Y Y or Y ˆ ˆ Y u (he residual is he difference beween Y and Yˆ ) (d) ˆ Y ˆ X or Y aˆ ˆ X (OLS esimaor for regression inercep) (e) ˆ xyx (OLS esimaor for regression slope) (d) Y Yˆ or Y Yˆ (sum of he acual values is equal o he sum of he prediced values) (e) Y Yˆ uˆ (he residual is he difference beween he acual and prediced value of Y ) 1 Mahemaical proof ha Y Yˆ and uˆ 0 The sum of all he sample regression values Yˆ ˆ ˆ X (ie, for = 1,,, T ) is ˆ ˆ ˆ ˆ Yˆ ˆ X ˆ X T ˆ T X T ˆ X Furher, subsiue Y aˆ ˆ X above Y TY Y ˆ I follows easily from he above ha Y ˆ T Y T or Y Y ˆ These resuls imply ha he sum (average) of he observed values of Y is equal o he sum (average) of he prediced values ˆ Also, i implies ha he sample regression line passes hrough he poin X, Y Y The sum of he regression residuals is 11

12 uˆ Y Yˆ Y Yˆ 0, because Y Yˆ Tha is, on average he sample regression errors (residuals) are zero Mahemaical proof of he equaliy y yˆ uˆ I follows easily from (b), (c) and (d) ha ˆ ˆ y Yˆ Yˆ Yˆ Y ˆ X ˆ X ˆ ˆ X X ˆ x This resuls shows ha he relaionship beween y and x is y ˆ ˆ x Tha is, he regression slope of variables expressed as deviaions from heir respecive sample means remains he same as ha of he original daa Nex subrac Y from Y Yˆ uˆ and y Y Y Yˆ Y uˆ y yˆ uˆ Square boh he lef- and righ-hand side of he equaliy y yˆ uˆ yˆ uˆ yu ˆ ˆ The sum he above equaliy across all sample daa gives because yu ˆˆ 0 y yˆ uˆ yu ˆ ˆ yˆ uˆ To prove his resul, subsiue ino he above equaion uˆ y yˆ and hen y ˆ x, o ge ˆ 1
