Direct costs: Direct costs are generally seen to be variable costs and they are called
direct costs because they are directly associated with manufacturing. In turn, the
direct costs can include:
Direct materials: plywood, wooden battens, fabric for the seat and the back,
nails, screws, glue.
Direct labour: sawyers, drillers, assemblers, painters, polishers, upholsterers
Direct expense: this is a strange cost that many texts don't include; but
(International Accounting Standard) IAS 2, for example, includes it. Direct
expenses can include the costs of special designs for one batch, or run, of a
particular set of tables and/or chairs, the cost of buying or hiring special
machinery to make a limited edition of a set of chairs.
Total direct costs are collectively known as Prime Costs and we can see that
Product Costs are the sum of Prime costs and Overheads.
Indirect Costs: Indirect costs are those costs that are incurred in the factory but that
cannot be directly associate with manufacture. Again these costs are classified
according to the three elements of cost, materials labour and overheads.
Finally, within Product Costs, we have Conversion Costs: these are the costs
incurred in the factory that are incurred in the conversion of materials into finished
goods.
The scheme shows five sub classifications for Period Costs. When we look at
different organisations, we find that they have period costs that might have sub
classifications with entirely different names. Unfortunately, this is the nature of the
classification of period costs; it can vary so much according to the organisation, the
industry and so on. Nevertheless, such a scheme is useful in that it gives us the basic
ideas to work on.
Without wishing to overly extend this listing now, we can conclude this
discussion by saying that the costs of Selling, the costs of Distribution and the costs
of Research are all accumulated in a similar way to the way in which Administration
Costs are accumulated. Consequently, our task is to look at the selling process and
classify the costs of running that process accordingly: advertising, market research,
salaries, bonuses, electricity, and so on. The same applies to all other classifications
of period costs that we might use.
Finance Costs: Finance costs are those costs associated with providing the
permanent, long term and short term finance. That is, within the section headed
finance costs we will find dividends, interest on long term loans and interest on short
term loans.
Notes:-
1) Factory Over Heads are recovered as a percentage of direct wages
9) Carrying Cost = Average inventory * Carrying cost per unit pa * Carrying cost %
(Or) Average Inventory * Carrying cost per order pa
Remarks :-
1) High Inventory T.O Ratio indicates that the material in the question is fast moving
2) Low Inventory T.O Ratio indicates over investment and locking up of working
Capital in inventories
c) Periodic simple average price method = Total unit price of certain period
Total Number of purchases of that period
(This rate is used for all issues for that period. Period means a month (or) week (or)
year)
a) Standard price method = Materials are priced at pre determined rate (or)
Standard rate
b) Inflated price method = The issue price is inflated to cover the losses incurred
due to natural(or)climatic losses
5) Re use price method = When materials are returned (or) rejected it is valued at
different price. There is no final procedure for this method.
ABC Analysis (or) Pareto Analysis :- In this materials are categorized into
Note:-
6) FOR = Free on Rail (Insurance and freight is not borne by the supplier but paid
by the company or purchase)
8) For each issue of goods = Materials Requisition note (or) Material Issue note
Accounting Treatment :-
1) Normal Wastage = It should be distributed over goods output increasing per unit
cost
3) Sale value of scrap is credited to costing profit and loss a/c as an abnormal gain.
4) Sale proceeds of the scrap can be deducted from material cost or factory
overheads.
7) Abnormal Defectives = This should be charged to costing profit and loss a/c
Method of Remuneration:
2) Payment by Results
i) Straight piece rate earnings = Number of units produced * Rate per unit
Output Payment
» Below standard » Time rate (guaranteed)
» At standard » 20% Bonus of Time rate
» Above standard » 120% of ordinary piece rate
Efficiency Payment
» Below 66.7% » Hourly Rate
» from 66.7% » Hourly rate (+) increasing bonus according to degree
to 100% of efficiency on the basis of step bonus rates
» Above 100% » Hourly rate (+) 20% Bonus (+) additional bonus of 1%
of hourly rate for every 1% increase in efficiency
v) Halsey Premium Plan = Basic wages + 50% of time saved * Hourly Rate
vi) Halsey Weir Premium Plan = Basic wages + 30% of time saved * Hourly rate
viii) Bedaus Point system = Basic wages + 75% * Bedaus point/60 * Rate/hr
11
ix) Barth’s System = Hourly rate * √Std time *Time taken
Labour Turnover:-
Accounting Treatment
i) If under absorbed and over absorbed overheads are of small value then it should be
transferred to costing profit and loss a/c
ii) If under and over absorption occurs due to wrong estimates then cost of product
manufactured should be adjusted accordingly.
iii) If the same accrued due to same abnormal reasons the same should be transferred
to costing profit & loss a/c
f) Supervision
Number of employees
g) Amenities to employee’s
2) Pay roll and time keeping = Total labour (or) machine hours (or) Number of
employees in each department
10) Power house (electric power cost) = Housing power, horse power machine hours,
No. of electric points etc.
Causes of differences:-
3) Valuation of stock:-
With job costing, we are dealing with one off situations. We are dealing with
organisations that carry out functions and services on a one at a time basis. Good
examples of job costing situations include jobbing builders: the builder who will
provide a householder, or a shop owner, or a factory owner with a service that he
provides for no one else. The jobbing builder will build an extension, or renovate
some property to a design that will probably not be copied anywhere else at any
time: it is a one off job. Job costing can apply in non manufacturing situations as
well as in manufacturing situations.
Even though many jobbing enterprises are small scale, we are not suggesting
that all jobbing enterprises are small scale enterprises. An engineering shop may be
working on a job for a customer that takes several months and many man and
machine hours to complete.
1)To find the cost per unit for valuation of units to be trans. to next process and also
for abnormal, loss or gain = Total process cost – Salvage value of normal spoilage
Total units introduced – Normal loss in units
3) In case of opening WIP and closing WIP are given then there are different
methods of valuation of closing WIP
i) FIFO Method ii) LIFO Method
iii) Average Method iv) Weighted Average Method
b) In finding cost per unit, cost incurred for opening stock is also to be added with
current cost. (This addition is not done in LIFO & FIFO method as cost
incurred in that process is only taken)
8) Weighted average method: This method is only used when varied product in
processed through a single process. General procedure is adopted
here.
b) Cost per unit arrived above should be applied for valuation of both abnormal
Loss/gain units and output of the process.
1) Physical unit method = Physical base to measure (i.e.) output quantity is used to
separate joint cost. Joint cost can be separated on the basis of ratio of output
quantity. While doing this wastage is also to be added back to find total quantity.
2) Average unit cost method = In this method joint cost is divided by total units
Produced of all products and average cost per unit is arrived and is multiplied
With number of units produced in each product.
3) Survey method or point value method = Product units are multiplied by points or
weights and the point is divide on that basis.
4) Standard cost method = Joint costs are separated on the basis of standard cost set
for respective joint products.
5) Contribution margin method = Cost are divided into two categories (i.e.) variable
and fixed. Variable costs are separated on unit produced. Fixed on the basis of
contribution ratios made by different products.
a) Market value at the point of separation: Joint cost to sales revenue percentage
is found which is called as multiplying factor = Joint cost * 100
Sales Revenue
Joint cost for each product is apportioned by applying this % on sales revenue
of each product.
Sales revenue = Sales Revenue at the point of separation.
This method cannot be done till the sales revenue at the separation point is
given.
b) Market value after processing: Joint cost is apportioned on the basis of total
sales Value of each product after further processing.
c) Net Realizable value method = Form sales value following items are deducted
i) Estimated profit margin
ii) Selling and distribution expenses if any included.
iii) Post split off cost
The resultant amount is net realizable value. Joint cost is apportioned on this
basis.

OPERATION COSTING
21
Service costing is “A cost accounting method concerned with establishing the costs
of services rendered”. Service costing is also applied within a manufacturing setting.
In this various terms such as passenger km, quintal km, tonne km, these are
all known as composite units and are computed in 2 ways:
Note:-
% of factory overheads on direct wages
22
% of administration overheads on works cost
% of selling & distribution overheads on works cost
% of profit on sales
CONTRACT COSTING
23
Contract costing is “A form of specific order costing; attribution of costs to
individual contracts”.
By contract costing situations, we tend to mean long term and large contracts:
such as civil engineering contracts for building houses, roads, bridges and so
on. We could also include contracts for building ships, and for providing
goods and services under a long term contractual agreement.
With contract costing, every contract and each development will be
accounted for separately; and does, in many respects, contain the features of a
job costing situation.
Work is frequently site based.
The source of the following has eluded me: my sincere gratitude for whoever the
author might be.
"Contract Costing such jobs take a long time to complete & may spread over two or
more of the contractor's accounting years”.
Features of a Contract
Collection of Costs :
24
Desirable to open up one or more internal job accounts for the collection of
costs. If the contract not obtained, preliminary costs be written off as abortive
contract costs in P&L In some cases a series of job accounts for the contract will be
necessary:
to collect the cost of different aspects
to identify different stages in the contract
Special features
Where a plant is purchased for a particular contract & has little further value to the
business at the end of the contract
Where a plant is bought for or used on a contract, but on completion of the contract it
has further useful life to the business
Alternatively the plant may be capitalised with Maintenance and running costs
charged to the contract."
Format:-
2) When % of completion is above 25% but less than 50% following amount should
be credited to profit & loss a/c = 1/3 * Notional Profit * {Cash received / Work
certified}
3) When % of completion is more than or equal to 50% then the amount transferred
to profit is = 2/3 * Notional Profit * {Cash received / Work certified}
[Balance is transferred to reserve a/c]
☺ % of completion = {Work certified/Contract price} * 100

Sales:-
Profit / Loss:
One of the key aspects here is that a transfer price is equivalent to an ordinary
selling price and that any department or division that sets a transfer price is
effectively selling its goods and services at a profit or a loss to another department or
division within its organisation. Any part of an organisation using transfer pricing
will be classed as a profit centre: since it is operating with a view to making a profit
(whether positive, profit, or negative, loss). If goods and services are transferred
between departments and divisions at cost, then no profit or loss arises and the issue
of transfer pricing does not, or should not, arise.
b) If multiple product

The name zero base budgeting derives from the idea that such budgets are
developed from a zero base: that is, at the beginning of the budget development
process, all budget headings have a value of ZERO. This is in sharp contrast to the
incremental budgeting system in which in general a new budget tends to start with a
balance at least equal to last year's total balance, or an estimate of it.
In ABC method Over Head are splited according to the related activity, for
each type of Over Head. Overhead are apportioned among various Production cost
centers on the basis of Activity cost drivers.
Introduction: -
Future: Past costs are irrelevant as they are not affected them by future decisions &
decisions should be made as to what is best now.
46
Incremental: This refers to additional revenue or expenditure, which may appear as a
result of our decision-making.
(A cash flow - Such charges as depreciation may be future but do not represent cash
flows and, as such, are not relevant.)
Committed costs: This is future in nature but which arise from past decisions,
perhaps as the result of a contract.
When considering various decisions, if the any materials required is not taken
from existing stocks but would be purchased on a later date, then the estimated
purchase price would be the relevant material cost. A more difficult problem arises
when materials are taken from existing stock. In this situation the relevant cost of
materials for a particular job (say job X) depends on
If the material is in regular use of the company then the material taken from
existing stock requires replacement for the purpose of regular use therefore the
relevant cost of material will be the Replacement cost.
If the material is not in regular use of the company the relevant cost of the
materials depends on their alternative use. The alternative use of the materials will be
either to sell them or to use them on other jobs. Hence the cost of using the materials
results in an opportunity cost consisting of either
The net sales revenue if the materials were sold (or) The expense that would be
avoided if the materials were used on some other job Whichever is greater.
If the material is in short supply the only way material for the job under
consideration can be obtained is by reducing production of some other product / job.
This would release material for the order. but the reduced production will result in
loss of contribution which should be taken in to account when ascertaining the
relevant costs for the specific order. Therefore the relevant cost will be Contribution
lost (before the material cost since the material cost will be incurred in any case) will
be the relevant cost.
47
labour:
2 Determining the direct labour that are relevant to short - term decision depends on
the circumstances.
Where a company has temporary sparse capacity and the labour force is to be
maintained in the short - term, the direct labour cost incurred will remain same for all
alternative decisions. The direct labour cost will therefore be irrelevant for short -
term decision - making purposes.
However where casual labour is used and where workers can be hired on a
daily basis; a company may then adjust the employment of labour to exactly the
amount required to meet the production requirements. The labour cost will increase
if the company accepts additional work, and will decrease if production is reduced.
In this situation the labour cost be a relevant cost for decision - making purposes.
In a situation where full capacity exists and additional labour supplies are
unavailable in the short - term, and where no further overtime working is possible,
the only way that labour resources could then be obtained for a specific order would
be to reduce existing production. This would release labour for the order. but the
reduced production will result in loss of contribution, which should be taken in to
account when ascertaining the relevant costs for the specific' order. Therefore the
relevant cost will be Contribution lost (before the labour cost) will be the relevant
cost.

Ratio Analysis
Notes : -
Cash Reservoir = Cash in hand + Bank + Marketable Non trade investment at
market value.
Current liabilities = Creditors + Bills Payable + Outstanding Expenses +
Provision for tax (Net of advance tax) + Proposed dividend + Other
provisions.
Total assets = Total in asset side – Miscellaneous expenses – Preliminary
expenses + Any increase in value of marketable non trading Investments.
Average cash expenses =Total expenses in debit side of P & L a/c – Non cash
item such as depreciation, goodwill, preliminary expenses written off, loss on
sale of investments, fixed assets written off + advance tax (Ignore provision
for tax) . The net amount is divided by 365 to arrive average expenses.
Remarks : - In Comparison
When absolute cash ratio is lower then current liability is higher
When cash position to Total Asset ratio is lower then the total asset is
relatively higher.
When cash interval is lower the company maintain low cash position. It is not
good to maintain too low cash position or too high cash position.
B) Liquidity Ratio : -
Notes : -
Quick Asset = Current Asset – Stock
Quick Liability = Current liability – Cash credit, Bank borrowings, OD and
other Short term Borrowings.
Secured loan is a current liability and also come under cash credit
Sundry debtors considered doubtful should not be taken as quick asset.
Creditors for capital WIP is to be excluded from current liability.
Current asset can include only marketable securities.
Loans to employees in asset side are long term in nature and are not part of
current assets.
Provision for gratuity is not a current liability.
Gratuity fund investment is not a part of marketable securities.
Trade investments are not part of marketable securities.
Remarks : -
Higher the current ratios better the liquidity position.
Notes : -
Share holders fund (or) Equity (or) Proprietary fund (or) Owners fund (or)
Net worth = Equity share + Preference share + Reserves and surplus – P & L
a/c – Preliminary Expenses.
Debt (or) Long term liability (or) Long term loan fund = Secured loan
(excluding cash credit) + unsecured loan + Debentures.
Total asset = Total assets as per Balance sheet – Preliminary expenses.
Total liability = Long term liability + Current liability (or) short term liability
52
Long term fund = Total asset – Current liability = Share holders fund + long
term loan fund.
Remarks : -
In debt equity ratio higher the debt fund used in capital structure, greater is
the risk.
In debt equity ratio, operates favorable when if rate of interest is lower than
the return on capital employed.
In total liability to Net worth Ratio = Lower the ratio, better is solvency
position of business, Higher the ratio lower is its solvency position.
If debt equity ratio is comparatively higher then the financial strength is
better.
D) Profitability Ratio : -
7) Expenses Ratios :-
Notes : -
In the above the term “term” is used for business engaged in sale of goods,
for other enterprises the word “revenue” can be used.
Gross profit = Sales – Cost of goods sold
Operating profit = Sales – Cost of sales
= Profit after operating expenses but before Interest and tax.
Operating Expenses = Administration Expenses + Selling and distribution
expenses, Interest on short term loans etc.
Return = Earning before Interest and Tax
= Operating profit
= Net profit + Non operating expenses – Non operating Income
Capital employed = Share holders fund + Long term borrowings
= Fixed assets + Working capital
If opening and closing balance is given then average capital employed can be
substituted in case of capital employed which is
Opening capital employed + Closing capital employed
2
Notes : -
Profit available for debt servicing = Net profit after tax provision +
Depreciation + Other non cash charges + Interest on debt.
Remarks : -
Higher the debt servicing ratio is an indicator of better credit rating of the
company.
It is an indicator of the ability of a business enterprise to pay off current
installments and interest out of profits.
54
F) Turnover Ratios: -
5) Debtors turnover (or) Average collection period = Credit sales (in ratio)
Average accounts receivable
(or) = Average accounts receivable * 365 (in days)
Credit sales
6) Creditors turnover (or) Average payment period Credit purchases (in ratio)
Average accounts payable
(or) = Average accounts Payable * 365 (in days)
Credit Purchases
Note : -
Working capital = Current asset – Current liability
= 0.25 * Proprietary ratio
Accounts Receivable = Debtors + Bills receivable
Accounts payable = Creditors + Bills Payable
55
Remarks : -
If assets turnover ratio is more than 1, then profitability based on capital
employed is profitability based on sales.
Higher inventory turnover is an indicator of efficient inventory movement. It
is an indicator of inventory management policies.
Low inventory holding period lower working capital locking, but too low is
not safe.
Higher the debtors turnover, lower the credit period offered to customers. It is
an indicator of credit management policies.
Higher the creditors turnover, lower the credit period offered by suppliers.
G) Other Ratios: -
1) Operating profit ratio = Net profit ratio + Non operating loss / Sales ratio
8) Fixed charges coverage ratio = Net profit before interest and tax
Interest charges
H) General Remarks: -
Fall in quick ratio when compared with last year or other company is due to
huge stock pilling up.
If current ratio and liquidity ratio increases then the liquidity position of the
company has been increased.
If debt equity ratio increases over a period of time or is greater when
comparing two ratios, then the dependence of the company in borrowed
funds has increased.
Direct expenses ratio increases in comparison then the profitability decreases.
If there is wages / Sales ratio increases, then this is to verified
a) Wage rate
b) Output / Labour rate
Increment in wage rate may be due to increased rate or fall in labour
efficiency.
Again there are many reasons for fall in labour productivity namely abnormal
idle time due to machine failure, power cut etc.
Reduction in Raw material consumed / sales ratio may be due to reduction in
wastage or fall in material price.
Increase in production expenses ratio may also be due to price raise.
Stock turnover ratio denotes how many days we are holding stock.
In stock turnover ratio greater the number of days, the movement of goods
will be on the lower side.
Financial ratios are Current ratio, Quick ratio, Debt equity ratio, Proprietary
ratio, Fixed asset ratio.
Short term solvency ratios are current ratio, Liquidity ratio
Long term solvency or testing solvency of the company ratios are Debt equity
ratio, fixed asset ratio, fixed charges coverage ratio (or) Interest coverage
ratio.
To compute financial position of the business ratios to be calculated are –
current ratio, Debt equity ratio, Proprietary ratio, fixed asset ratio.
Fictitious asset are Preliminary expenses, Discount on issue of shares and
debentures, Profit and loss account debit balance.

Assignment
Step 2: Identify Least Number in each row and subtract with all number in that
Row.
Step 3: Identify least number of each column and subtract with all number in that
column.
Step 4: Check whether solution is reached with zero selection in one row and
column, ie. Cover all the zero with minimum number of lines, solution is
reached only when selected zeros is equal to number of rows or columns
or number of lines is equal to order of matrix.
Step 9: If solution is not reached continue with the process from step 5.

Note – For finding whether all the elements in Cj – Zj row is positive or zero
for minimization problem substitute all the ‘M’ with highest value.
14. Check the optimal solution, if not reached form the third table.
Other Points : -
We can change the > sign to < sign to match the problem

CPM
Total float = LS – ES (or) LF – EF
To find the minimum time associated cost (i.e. Additional cost incurred per
unit of time saved) following formula is used :-
Crash cost per day (or) Activity cost supply
= Crash cost – Normal cost
Normal time – Crash time
Interfacing float = It is the part of the total float which causes reduction in the
float of the succession activities. In other words it is the portion of activity
float which cannot be continued without affecting adversely the float of the
subsequent activity or activities.
2. First find and fill the ES and LF column from the diagram.
5. Find free float. Wherever total float column has zero free float column is also
taken has zero and remaining elements is filled as said above
6. Find Independent float. Wherever free float column has zero Independent
float column is also taken has zero and remaining elements is filled as said
above
63
Notes: -
1. ES = Earliest Start. Indicates earliest time that the given activity can be
scheduled
2. EF = Earliest Finish. Time by which the activity can be completed at the
earliest.
3. LF = Latest Finish. Latest allowable occurrence time of the head event of the
activity.
4. LS = Latest Start.
5. Total duration of the critical path is the maximum time/amount consumed for
the activity. This should be crashed with respect to crashing days and
crashing cost. This crashing should not change the critical path.
PERT : -
Expected (or) Average time is found by assigning weights as follows : -
1 for optimistic
4 for Most likely
1 for pessimistic
Average time = 1 optimistic + 4 most likely + 1 pessimistic
6
Standard Deviation = (Pessimistic time – Optimistic time)
6
Variance = (Standard Deviation)2
Probability of completing the project in N days
= Required time(N) (-) Expected time (critical path duration)
Standard Deviation
[Nothing but Z = (X - Mean) / Standard deviation]
= Y (say)
= Find Z(y)
= Probability %
- If required time > Expected time then = 0.5 + Z(Y)
- If required time < Expected time then = 0.5 – Z(Y)

Learning Curve
5. Spot Rate = Today’s rate. Normally it will be 3td day rate from TT Rate.
Direct Quote is used in all country except UK where indirect quote is used.
Spread Rate (%) = Offer Rate – Bid Rate * 100 (111lr to that of NP Ratio)
Offer Rate
Forward Rate: It is rate negotiated for the delivery to be made / taken on a future
date for present transaction.
Future spot rate: It is actual rate prevailing on the agreed future date.
Other points:-
Currency country which has less Interest rate will have forward rate at
premium and vice versa
If two rates ie.20.23 / 35 is given then highest rate is offer rate, lowest
rate is bid rate.
If INR / DG is given and we have to DG / INR then it is 1 / (INR / DG)
1 / (Bid Rate) = Offer Rate.
1 / (Offer Rate) = Bid Rate.
Interest rate swap: - Generally interest rate differs from company to company
because of their grade (reputation) and rates can be fixed rates or floting rate. If there
is 2 company under different grade and different fixed / floating rate can gin
advantage by reducing their interest rate by “Interest rate swap”.

Internal Rate of Return (IRR):-
IRR otherwise called as yield on investment, Marginal efficiency of capital,
Marginal productivity of capital, Rate of Return, Time adjusted rate of return.
Notes: - If actual cash flow is higher than average cash flows in the initial years then
increase the fake IRR point a few % upward. If it is lower in the initial years then
decrease the percentage few points lower to find fake IRR
If discount rates are not known but cash inflows and outflows are known then
IRR is calculated as I = R / (1+r)
Where I = Cash outflow (or) Initial Investment
R = Cash inflow
R = Rate of return yielded by the Investment (or IRR)

i) Risk Adjusted Discount rate approach
= NPV for CFAT at Risk adjusted Discount Rate.
ii) Certainty Equivalent Approach
= NPV for (Certainty Equivalent Coefficient * CFAT) at Risk less Interest rate.
iii) Probality Discount approach
= NPV for (CF) at risk less Interest rate.

h) Risk adjusted discount rate approach: - In this risk adjusted discount rate is taken
as PV factor and calculated as NPV method.
=∑ (CFAT) t - CO Where Kr = Risk adjusted discount rate
(1 + Kr) t
i) Certainty Equivalent (CE) approach = Risk less Cash Flow
Risky Cash Flow
Note:-
i) In certainty Equivalent approach rate of discount is the risk less rate of
Interest as the risk is adjusted with CFAT.
ii) In this case CFAT is multiplied with certainty equivalent and PV is
calculated by risk less rate of interest.
iii) If projects are ranked with respect of risk and return. Project with respect
to risk requires ∑ NPV (i.e. ∑(NPV * Probability)) and the project with respect to
return find co-efficient of variation = / ∑ NPV
vii) If in the Risk adjusted Discount approach both cost of control and Risk
adjusted discount rate is given
For the CF of the years apply Risk adjusted discount rate to find
Discounted CF.
For the Scrap value of the machine after the end of the life the CF on
sale is discounted at cost of capital % to find Discounted CF.
viii) If probability (or) Certainty equivalence is given then find the Adjusted
CF (CF * Probability) and then use the Risk less Rate of return to find Discounted
CF.
ix) Risk is Standard deviation
Summary:-
i) Risk Adjusted Discount Rate Approach
= NPV for CFAT at Risk Adjusted Discount Rate
ii) Certainty Equivalent Approach
= NPV for (CE coefficient * CFAT) at Risk less interest rate
iii) Probability Discount Approach
= NPV for (CF) at Risk less Interest Rate
Derivatives
Call Option: - Gives buyer “Right but not the obligation” to buy the share.
Put Option: - Gives buyer “Right but not the obligation” to sell the share.
Excise price:-
It is the price at which the person writes the prices on a share to buy after a
period.
Expected Value of the share:-
It is the total of estimate market price of the share multiplied with the
respective probability.
Expected (or) Theoretical value of the put option price at expiration (Pay of put
option):-
= ∑ (Excise Price - Estimated market price) * Probability (or)
= [Max (x – s), 0] * Probability
Where (Estimated market price – Excise Price) is called pay off. If it is negative it is
taken as zero.
s = Estimated Market Price.
Note:-
Beta
Note:-
i) (rm – rf) = Market risk premium (or) Compensation per unit of risk.
ii) Cor(s,m) is +1 under CML
iii) rf + (rm – rf) * [( s / m) * cor(s,m)] = This portion in CAPM formula is
risk premium
iv) (rm – rf) / m = Market risk return trade off (slope).
