In the solution we have taken annual Rf rate and monthly dividend rate. Should it not be monthly rate for Rf. If not please explain as to why we have taken annual rate for Rf.

latest answer

Dividend rate is 3% PA We are not taking 4 months dividend rate. we are computing average dividend rate over 4 months Even that number is a pa number RF rate is same at 8% pa for every month We finally adjust for 4 months by multiplying with 4/12

Ram buys 10,000 shares of X Ltd. at a price of ₹ 22 per share whose beta value is 1.5 and sells 5,000 shares of A Ltd. at a price of ₹ 40 per share having a beta value of 2. He obtains a complete hedge by Nifty futures at ₹ 1,000 each. He closes out his position at the closing price of the next day when the share of X Ltd. dropped by 2%, share of A Ltd. appreciated by 3% and Nifty futures dropped by 1.5%. What is the overall profit/loss to Ram? In this Qn, there is no information about his position on NIFTY futures, Can we solve it assuming he took short position as Nifty futures dropped by 1.5% unlike the class material where we took long position resulting in loss?
