Which is considered to be more efficient? Explain why this is the case. [10B] With reference to W3 - Calculations, compare the performances of different assets (RIO, MQG, Portfolio 2 and MVP 2) based on coefficient of variations. Explain why this is expected. [10C] With reference to W4 - Beta, provide the interpretations of the regression output, specifically the levels of Coefficients and significance (p-values) of the Intercept and Beta (X Variable 1) in W4-Beta. [Note] If the p-value is less than 0.05 (0.01), then it is significant at the 5% (1%) level. The null hypothesis is that the coefficient is equal to zero. [10D] With reference to W4 - Beta, are the regression results consistent with the CAPM predictions? Explain. And ‘If’ the results are inconsistent, also explain the potential reason(s), based on the concepts covered in BFC5935.

It is also to further develop your technical and analytical skills, which will help with your employability. Important Note: The sample period and correlation applicable depends on the allocated tutorial with specific tutor, and it is the student’s responsibility to know the tutorial allocated to (e.g. Tutorial 01 – Mon 11am), as well as the tutor’s name. Plagiarism & Collusion: Note that this is an individual assignment and that it is not a group work – please read all the relevant documents related to Plagiarism & Collusion on the Monash page and on Moodle: https://www.monash.edu/students/admin/policies/academic-integrity Any violations are officially misconduct and will be dealt with seriously, and with the case potentially escalated to the Faculty. Total Marks: 36 Marks [12% of Total Assessment] Submission: You will need to use the Excel Spreadsheet Template posted on Moodle and submit via Moodle by the due date & time as stated in the Unit Guide. Late submission will result in 10% penalty each day (including weekend & public holiday). You are also required to submit the ‘signed’ assignment cover sheet confirming that this is your own work. The assignment without the signed cover sheet will be deemed incomplete and the late penalty will apply. [IMPORTANT] After uploading the files (it will appear as draft, but the files are actually not submitted yet), you will need to click 'submit' and the ‘Status’ will be indicated as ‘Submitted for grading’. Please note that you are only allowed one submission – so it is your responsibility to ensure that all the submitted files are correct. Also, we would advise that, it is best to not leave until the last minute to submit (especially given that the ASM does not take that long to complete), please feel free to submit at least 1-2 days before the deadline. For the cover sheet, you can submit as a PDF file, or alternatively, you can have your signature as a picture and paste in the word document. If your signature is in Chinese (or another language), it is completely fine. https://www.monash.edu/students/admin/policies/academic-integrity 2 Tasks: You are required to construct portfolios using monthly data of Rio Tinto Group (RIO), and BHP Group (BHP), and Macquarie Group Limited (MQG) stocks listed on the ASX (Tip: put ‘.ax’ after the stock ticker and check that the company’s full name is correct), over the following sample period based on your Allocated Tutorial: TUTOR Tutorial Day & Time Sample Period Tracy Mon 12pm, 2pm & 3pm 2004 – 2006 Kate / Farhan Tue 12pm, 1pm, 2pm & 6pm 2007 – 2009 Taher / Kate Wed 2pm & 3pm 2010 – 2012 Anh Thur 1pm & 2pm 2013 – 2015 Taher / Farhan Fri 12pm & 1pm 2016 – 2018 [Note 1]: Using incorrect stocks and/or sample period will incur immediate penalty of 30% [or possibly 100% if the entire assignment is then found to have copied/plagiarised another assignment]. [Note 2]: As stated, you are required to use the template provided – do not modify or add worksheets – This will also incur penalty. All results required can be calculated based on the template provide. [Note 3]: You are required to show workings in the form of using formulae (i.e. do not copy and paste special as ‘value’) as the marker will check how the answers are calculated. Answers are required to have 2 decimal places. PART 1 [7 Marks] [1] Download monthly RIO, BHP & MQG (Adj Close) price data from Yahoo Finance: https://au.finance.yahoo.com/ [Note that although this is Yahoo AU and that it shows the required date format to be 'dd/mm/yyyy' - when you actually input the date, it will be based on the US format with month first - i.e. 'mm/dd/yyyy'. You will have to select 'Monthly' for Frequency, and by default
