1、CFA二级练习题精选及答案 0516-7StudySession 3- Quantitative Methods1(7) Q=6JorgeReyes Case ScenarioJorge Reyes is a financial analyst withValores de Playa SA deCV, located in a suburb of Mexico City, Mexico. Twonights a week, he works as an adjunct professor at a local technical institute,lecturing in investme

2、nts and serving as a consultant in statistics and relatedfields.During a lecture on modern portfolio theory(MPT), Reyes points out the role that reqression plays in estimating theparameters of the capital asset pricing model (CAPM), As an exercise, Reyespresents the results of a regression of retums

3、 (R) on the company that owns theMercican stock exchange (ticker symbal BOLSAA.MX) against theU.S.dallar-Mexican peso exchange rate ( Er).The data cover the period from late 2011 through early 2012.Thereare 6413daily observations in the study. Exhibit l reports the results oftheregression.One of the

4、 students asks Reyes about theAdjusted R2reported in Exhibit l. Reyes explains thattheadjusted R2removes the effects cf serial correlation in thedata.A second student recalls that thepresenceofheteroskedasticity affects interpretation of thetest statisticscomputed bya regression. Reyes confirms that

5、 that is true andsuggests the studentsexamine a plot of the predicted BOLSAAreturn values versus their actualvalues.Exihibit 2 providessuch a graph,Interpreting the graph, Reyes states:Thepresence of heteroskedasticity isindicated whenthere isa systematic relationshipbetweenthe values ofresidualsand

6、 the independent variable. Itis difficultto seesuch asystematic relationship in Exhibit 2.Thereforeheteroskedasticitydoes not appear to be a problem in this regression. In a ater exercise, Reyes asks his studentsto consider a time series of 622 weekly prices of Maya 22 crude oil. Asubstantial propor

7、tion of Mexicos oil production is Mziya 22 heavy crude.Theperiod of the study is from January 1997 throughDtcember 2008.Reyes starts the analysis by looking at achart of the time series (not shown). Reyes points out several key features ofthe chart.u First, the prices exhibit an exponentialtrend in

8、the price increasesleading up to 2008.u Second,price behavior in the last few months of 2008 is significantlydifferent from price behavior leading to the market top.Reyes asks the students to model the timeseries for the periodJanuary 3, 1997, through July 18, 2008, when prices hitthehigh value of U

9、SD126.58. At Reyes suggestion, the students first model theprices as an exponential trend (long -Iinear model). They test for correlatederrors from the model using the Durbin -Watson statistic. The results arereported in Exhibit3.Reyes next suggests theyuse a first -orderautoregressivemodel AR(l). T

10、o reducethe impact of the exponentialtrend,the students continueto use the natural logarithms ofthe prices, but now theyalso take the first differences of theselogarithms of the prices (xt)They fit a first -order autoregressivmodel (AR(l) to the differences of logs.The results of theregression are r

11、eported in Exhibit 4.As nonstationarity or heteroskedasticitywouldnegativelyimpact use of the AR(1) model, Reyes asks thestudentstotestfor the presence of each. Results of the unitroot testofofnonstationarity andof a test for the presece heteroskedasticity are reported in Exhibit 5.Question7theregre

12、ssion of the retuns of BOLSAA.MX on the USD:MXNexchange rate (Exhibit l),the coefficient of the USD:MXNexchange rate is most occurotely described as:A.signifiontly different fromzero.B.not significantly differentfrom zero.C.indeterminate, asinsufficient informatian is providedin Exhibitl.Question8Re

Thetest statistic isthe estimate of the coefficient (-0.5789) divided by itsstandarderror (0.2221)-0.5789/0.22212
