二、简答题1.请解释什么是证券组合的系统性风险和非系统性风险,并图示证券组合包含证券的数量与证券组合系统性风险和非系统性风险间的关系。
答:(1)系统风险亦称“不可分散风险”或“市场风险”,与非系统风险相对,指由于某些因素给市场上所有的证券都带来经济损失的可能性,如经济衰退、通货膨胀和需求变化给投资带来的风险。
这种风险影响到所有证券,不可能通过证券组合分散掉。
即使投资者持有的是收益水平及变动情况相当分散的证券组合,也将遭受这种风险。
对于投资者来说,这种风险是无法消除的。
系统风险的大小取决于两个方面,一是每一资产的总风险的大小,二是这一资产的收益变化与资产组合中其他资产收益变化的相关关系(由相关系数描述)。
在总风险一定的前提下,一项资产与市场资产组合收益变化的相关关系越强,系统风险越大,相关关系越弱,系统风险越小。
非系统风险,亦称“可分散风险”或“特别风险”,是指那些通过资产组合就可以消除掉的风险,是公司特有风险,例如某些因素对个别证券造成经济损失的可能性。
这种风险可通过证券持有的多样化来抵消,因此,非系统风险是通过多样化投资可被分散的风险。

公司理财》习题参考答案
《公司理财》习题参考答案第1章公司理财导论★案例分析1.股东之间的利益(1)作为内部股东,其利益与外部股东未必一致。
(2)内部股东拥有信息优势。
他们可能运用这种信息优势做出有利于自己但伤害外部股东利益的行为,例如延期发布预亏信息。
2.企业组织的经营目标(1)相同点:公司理财学教授与市场营销学教授从各自的职业特征出发,表述了企业的经营目标。
不同点:公司理财学教授表达的是企业经营的最终目标,市场营销学教授表达的是实现企业经营最终目标的手段。
手段与目标本身并不一致。
也就是说,顾客满意了,企业价值未必最大化。
(2)如果公司理财学教授与市场营销学教授分别代表企业的财务部门与营销部门,可以通过“顾客给企业带来利润率”这个指标来协调其认识差异。
企业为什么要最大限度地满足顾客要求呢?其目的在于,通过最大限度地满足顾客要求来实现企业价值最大化。
然而,并不是所有满意的顾客都能够为企业创造价值。
对于这种顾客,企业为什么要最大限度地满足其要求呢?通过“顾客给企业带来利润率”这个指标来协调企业的财务部门与营销部门的认识差异的实践意义在于,它能够使企业财务部门与营销部门“讲同一种语言”。
财务部门具有营销理念,营销部门具有财务理念,从而构建“和谐企业”,引导企业走上“创造价值”的轨道上来。
3.会计学观念与公司理财观念(1)Toms公司不能得到价值补偿。
(2)会计学与公司理财学的差异在于会计学关注利润,而公司理财学关注现金流量。

(2)某些企业组织的财务总监或会计人员委派制只解决了会计的监督职能,没有解决会计的辅助管理决策乃至战略制定职能。
(3)企业组织的财务经理人(包括会计经理人)主要体现企业组织的经营权范畴。
第2章公司理财环境★案例分析1.利率市场化(1)如果利率市场化,那么,资金的供求关系会影响利率,从而影响金融市场。

罗斯《公司理财》(第9版)配套题库【章节题库-套利定价理论】
第12章套利定价理论一、单选题下列哪个不是CAPM的假设?()(中央财大2011金融硕士)A.投资者风险厌恶,且其投资行为是使其终期财富的期望效用最大B.投资者是价格承受者,即投资者的投资行为不会影响市场上资产的价格运动C.资产收益率满足多因子模型D.资本市场上存在无风险资产,且投资者可以无风险利率无限借贷【答案】C【解析】套利定价理论(APT)假设资产收益率满足多因子模型。
套利定价模型的优点之一是它能够处理多个因素,而资本资产定价模型就忽略了这一点。
根据套利定价的多因素模型,收益与风险的关系可以表示为:式中,β1代表关于第一个因素的贝塔系数,β2代表关于第二个因素的贝塔系数,依此类推。
二、简答题1.请解释什么是证券组合的系统性风险和非系统性风险,并图示证券组合包含证券的数量与证券组合系统性风险和非系统性风险间的关系。
(对外经贸大学2004研)答:(1)系统风险亦称“不可分散风险”或“市场风险”,与非系统风险相对,指由于某些因素给市场上所有的证券都带来经济损失的可能性,如经济衰退、通货膨胀和需求变化给投资带来的风险。
这种风险影响到所有证券,不可能通过证券组合分散掉。
即使投资者持有的是收益水平及变动情况相当分散的证券组合,也将遭受这种风险。
对于投资者来说,这种风险是无法消除的。
系统风险的大小取决于两个方面,一是每一资产的总风险的大小,二是这一资产的收益变化与资产组合中其他资产收益变化的相关关系(由相关关系描述)。
在总风险一定的前提下,一项资产与市场资产组合收益变化的相关关系越强,系统风险越大,相关关系越弱,系统风险越小。
非系统风险,亦称“可分散风险”或“特别风险”,是指那些通过资产组合就可以消除掉的风险,是公司特有风险,例如某些因素对个别证券造成经济损失的可能性。
这种风险可通过证券持有的多样化来抵消,因此,非系统风险是通过多样化投资可被分散的风险。
多样化投资之所以可以分散风险,是因为在市场经济条件下,投资的收益现值是随着收益风险和收益折现率的变化而变化的。
