The note about the:【单选题】A.Market-based method.parable transactions method.C.Discounted cash flow method.正确答案:B答案解析:The comparable transactions method uses details from recent takeover transactions for comparable companies to make direct estimates of the target company\\\'s takeover value. However it is not necessary to separately estimate a takeover premium as this is already included in the multiples determined from the comparable transactions.2、Based on the relationship of Borgonovo’s stock to the SML, what is the most appropriate decision Benedetti should make regarding the Borgonovo stock?【单选题】A.Keep Borgonovo on the recommended list because it plots below the SML.B.Keep Borgonovo on the recommended list because it plotsabove the SML.C.Remove Borgonovo from the recommended list because it plots below the SML.正确答案:C答案解析:C is correct. The SML required return for Borgonovo is 2.5% + 1.2(7%) = 10.9%. With a forecasted return of 9.0%, Borgonovo lies below the SML (indicating it is overvalued) and should be removed from the bank’s recommended list.3、Based on the regression output in Exhibit 1, there is evidence of positive serial correlation in the errors in:【单选题】A.the linear trend model but not the log-linear trend model.B.both the linear trend model and the log-linear trend model.C.neither the linear trend model nor the log-linear trend model.正确答案:B答案解析:B is correct. The Durbin–Watson statistic for the linear trend model is 0.10 and, for the log-linear trend model, 0.08. Both of these values are below the critical value of 1.75. Therefore, we can reject the hypothesis of no positive serial correlation in the regression errors in both the linear trend model and the log-linear trend model.4、In accounting for the use of derivatives against the three risks that Minor has discovered, the entire gains or losses from the。

1、Based on Exhibit 2, forecasted interest expense will reflect changes in Chrome’s debt level under the forecast assumptions used by:【单选题】
A.62.7%.
B.67.0%.
C.69.1%.
正确答案:C
答案解析:C is correct. The calculation of Archway’s gross profit margin for 2015, which reflects the industry-wide 8% inflation on cost of goods sold (COGS), is calculated as follows:
A.Candidate A.
B.Candidate B.
C.Candidate C.
正确答案:A
答案解析:A is correct. In forecasting financing costs such as interest expense, the debt/equity structure of a company is a key determinant. Accordingly, a method that recognizes the relationship between the income statement account (interest expense) and the balance sheet account (debt) would be a preferable method for forecasting interest expense when compared with methods that forecast based solely on the income statement account. By using the effective interest rate (interest expense divided by average gross debt), Candidate A is taking the debt/equity structure into account whereas Candidate B (who forecasts 2013 interest expense to be thesame as 2012 interest expense) and Candidate C (who forecasts 2013 interest expense to be the same as the 2010–2012 average interest expense) are not taking the balance sheet into consideration.

CFA考试《CFA三级》历年真题精选及答案1122-511、Jose DiCenzo has some securities worth €50,000 that have a cost basis of €75,000. If he sells those securities and can use the realized losses to offset other realized gains, how much can DiCenzo reduce his taxes in the current tax year assuming capital gains are taxed at 30 percent?【单选题】A.€7,500.B.€15,000.C.€17,500.正确答案:A答案解析:A is correct. DiCenzo has a €75,000 -€50,000 = €25,000 unrealized loss. Assuming that realizing this loss will decrease his taxable gains by the same amount, his tax bill in the current year will be reduced by 0.30 × €25,000 = €7,500. 2、Which of the statements made about meeting Gladys\\\\\\\\\\' stated goal is most accurate? The statement regarding:【单选题】A.fixed annuity productsB.revised asset allocationC.variable annuity products正确答案:C答案解析:A jointly owned variable payout lifetime annuity product would provide cash flows until the end of the surviving spouse\\\\\\\\\\'s lifetime. Therefore, the Jones family will not outlive the assets.

CFA考试《CFA三级》历年真题精选及详细解析1007-261、Ward is scheduled to visit the corporate headquarters of Evans Industries. Ward expects to use the information he obtains there to complete his research report on Evans stock. Ward learns that Evans plans to pay all of Ward’s expenses for the trip, including costs of meals, hotel room, and air transportation. Which of the following actions would be the best course for Ward to take under the Code and Standards?【单选题】A.Accept the expense-paid trip and write an objective report.B.Pay for all travel expenses, including costs of meals and incidental items.C.Accept the expense-paid trip but disclose the value of the services accepted in the report.正确答案:B答案解析:The correct answer is B. The best course of action under Standard I(B)—Independence and Objectivity is to avoid a conflict of interest whenever possible. Therefore, for Ward topay for all his expenses is the correct answer. Answer C details a course of action in which the conflict would be disclosed, but the solution is not as appropriate as avoiding the conflict of interest. Answer A would not be the best course because it would not remove the appearance of a conflict of interest; even though the report would not be affected by the reimbursement of expenses, it could appear to be.2、Are the three compliance procedures reviewed by Campanelli consistent with both the required and recommended standards of the CFA Institute Asset Manager Code of Professional Conduct?【单选题】A.No, the procedures regarding record retention are inconsistent.B.No, the procedures regarding portfolio review are inconsistent.C.No, the procedures regarding investigation of complaints are inconsistent.正确答案:C答案解析:C is correct. According to the recommendations of Section D(2) of the Asset Manager Code,where possible, the CCO should be independent from the investment and operations personnel and should report directly to the CEO orthe board of directors.3、The strategy that is most likely to benefit from the environment described by Monts in Statement 3 is to:【单选题】A.rotate from consumer non-cyclical to consumer cyclical sectors.B.increase exposure to the crossover sector.C.shift the portfolio’s positions to shorter duration corporate bonds.正确答案:C答案解析:Curve-adjustment trades take place when the portfolio manager expects credit spreads will widen (either overall or in a particular sector). The specific strategy is to shift the portfolio’s exposure to shorten spread duration by selling longer maturity corporate bonds and buying shorter maturity bonds, which lowers the contribution to spread duration.4、Sigma can most likely reduce credit risk in its OTC derivatives positions by changing which of the following practices?【单选题】tingB.Frequency of marking to marketC.Limiting counterparty exposure正确答案:B答案解析:Sigma typically enters two-year contracts and doesnot mark to market until expiration of the contract. Increasing the frequency of the marking to market will decrease credit risk. When a contract is marked to market, the party for whom the contract has a positive value receives payment from the counterparty, thus eliminating credit risk. Consequently, more frequent marking to market decreases credit risk.5、Based on Exhibit 1, Kiest’s liabilities would be classified as:【单选题】A.Type I.B.Type II.C.Type III.正确答案:A答案解析:A is correct. Type I liabilities have cash outlays with known amounts and timing. The dates and amounts of Kiest’s liabilities are known; therefore, they would be classified as TypeI liabilities.6、If Motelli’s current investment account of €250,000 is invested in an asset which is expected to earn annual interest of 6.5 percent and no capital gains, what is his expected after tax accumulation in 15 years?【单选题】A.€578,664.B.€586,547.C.€642,960.正确答案:B答案解析:B is correct. The after tax wealth accumulation for annually taxable income isFVIFi = [1 + r(1 – ti)]nFV = €250,000 × FVIFi = €250,000 × [1 + 0.065(1 – 0.10)]15= €586,5477、Based on Exhibit 1, which of the portfolios will best immunize SD&R’s single liability?【单选题】A.Portfolio 1B.Portfolio 2C.Portfolio 3正确答案:B答案解析:B is correct. In the case of a single liability, immunization is achieved by matching the bond portfolio’s Macaulay duration with the horizon date. DFC has a single liability of $500 million due in nine years.Portfolio 2 has a Macaulay duration of 8.9, which is closer to 9 than that of either Portfolio 1 or 3.Therefore, Portfolio 2 will best immunize the portfolio against the liability.8、Ng’s response to Kepler’s question about the most efficient portfolio management strategy should be:【单选题】A.full replication.B.active management.C.an enhanced indexing strategy.正确答案:C答案解析:C is correct. Under an enhanced indexing strategy, the index is replicated with fewer than the full set of index constituents but still matches the original index’s primary risk factors. This strategy replicates the index performance under different market scenarios more efficiently than the full replication of a pure indexing approach.9、Considering Zubov’s statements to the investment committee regarding Hoven University’s endowment, he is least likely correct with respect to:【单选题】A.liquidity need.B.total return objective.C.risk tolerance.正确答案:C答案解析:The endowment’s risk tolerance is low to moderate, not high, because the endowment’s contribution represents 25% of the university’s operating budget. Thus, a modest drop in the endowment’s value may have a significant impact on university operations. Another factor supporting a lower risk tolerance is the use of a simple spending rule. The absence of a smoothing rule means the endowment has less tolerance for short-termportfolio risk. Although a return objective of 7%–7.5% may ostensibly be used to support a higher risk tolerance, the risk of a short-term drawdown poses a much larger risk and thus, on balance, a low to moderate risk tolerance is more appropriate for the endowment.10、Are Pearson\\\\\\\\'s statements regarding the disadvantages of the historical method for estimating VaR most likely correct?【单选题】A.No, the second statement is not a disadvantage.B.No, the first statement is not a disadvantage.C.Yes.正确答案:B答案解析:The nonparametric feature of the historical method is an advantage, not a disadvantage. The historical method requires minimal probability-distribution assumptions compared with other methods.。

Credit spreads narrowduring economic expansions and widen during economic contractions. During an economic expansion, corporate revenues and cash flows rise, making it easier for corporations to service their debt, and investors purchase corporates instead of Treasuries, thus causing spreads to narrow.

Contrary to Northrup’s comment, fund of funds usually do not impose lock-up periods (or minimum initial holding period) and their fees are higher as investors pay two layers of fees: one to the FOF and the other to the underlying hedge fund managers.2、The monthly VaR that Stulz wants to estimate for the Stimsonportfolio is closest to:【单选题】A.€0.8 million.B.€2.9 million.C.€3.9 million.正确答案:C答案解析:C is correct.

MCAM\\\\\\\'s style has:【单选题】A.not drifted.B.drifted from value to growth.C.drifted from growth to value.正确答案:C答案解析:The active equity strategy was not value oriented because the returns-based style analysis indicates a growth orientation given a 0.65 coefficient of determination with respect to growth returns. The current holdings, however, depict a value orientation when compared with the manager\\\\\\\'s normal benchmark given the differences in dividend yield and P/E. MCAM\\\\\\\'s style has drifted over time from growth to value.4、What is Kaplan’s after-tax accumulation after 20 years?【单选题】A.€196,438.B.€220,521.C.€230,521.正确答案:A答案解析:A is correct.

If the stock price at expiration of the options is $26.90, the put will expire worthless, the call will expire worthless, and the value of the strategy will reflect solely the value of the stock.7、Which of the statements made about meeting Gladys\\\\\\\' stated goal is most accurate? The statement regarding:【单选题】A.fixed annuity productsB.revised asset allocationC.variable annuity products正确答案:C答案解析:A jointly owned variable payout lifetime annuity product would provide cash flows until the end of the surviving spouse\\\\\\\'s lifetime. Therefore, the Jones family will not outlive the assets. It is true there is less certainty regarding the cash flows because they are linked to the performance of the underlying investments.8、With respect to Viewmont\\\\\\\'s goal of borrowing at the lowest cost and hedging currency risk, who is most likely correct?【单选题】A.KemigisaB.BazlamitC.Montero正确答案:C答案解析:Montero is correct. Viewmont can reduce its overall borrowing costs by borrowing in U.S. dollars and engaging in a currency swap for Brazillian reals. This swap not only reduces borrowing costs but also hedges currency exposure.9、In the previous question, suppose DiCenzo sells the securities in the current tax year and replaces them with securities having the same returns. He will then sell the new securities in the next tax year. What is the total tax savings assuming DiCenzo does not reinvest the tax savings?【单选题】A.€0.B.€7,500.C.€15,000.正确答案:A答案解析:A is correct. Assuming DiCenzo does not reinvest the tax savings, tax loss harvesting does not reduce the total tax paid over time. It only defers taxes because recognizing the loss resets the cost basis to a lower figure which will ultimately increase the gain realized late by the same amount. Tax loss harvest can augment return by postponing tax liabilities. Reinvesting the current year’s tax savings increases the after-tax principal investment, which can augment the value of tax loss harvesting further.10、The yield curve expectation that Abram’s supervisor targets with Scenario 1 is most likely a:【单选题】A.flattening yield curve.B.reduction in yield curve curvature.C.100 bps parallel shift downward of the yield curve.正确答案:A答案解析:A is correct. Scenario 1 is an extreme barbell and is typically used when the yield curve flattens. In this case, the 30-year bond has larger price gains because of its longer duration and higher convexity relative to other maturities. If the yield curve flattens through rising short-term interest rates, portfolio losses are limited by the lower price sensitivity to the change in yields at the short end of the curve while the benchmark’s middle securities will perform poorly.。

CFA考试历年真题精选10(附详解)1、As a condition of his employment with an investment bank, Abasi Hasina, CFA, was required to sign an employment contract, including a non-compete clause restricting him from working for a competitor for three years after leaving the employer. After one year, Hasina quits his job for a comparable position with an investment bank in a country where non-compete clauses are illegal. Lawyers with whom he consulted prior to taking the new position determined the non-compete clause was a violation of human rights and thus illegal. Did Hasina most likely violate the CFA Institute Code of Ethics?【单选题】A.YesB.No, because the non-compete clause violates his human rightsC.No, because the non-compete clause is illegal in the new country of employment正确答案:A答案解析:“Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct,” CFA Institute2012 Modular Level I, Vol. 1, p. 15A is correct because by failing to adhere to the non-compete clause he agreed to abide by when signing his employment contract, Hasina shows a lack of professional integrity toward his employer. This behavior reflects poorly on the good reputation of members and is a violation of the Code of Ethics, which states that members and candidates must act with integrity, and Standard I (D) Misconduct, which states that members and candidates must not engage in any professional conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, or deceit or commit any act that reflects adversely on their professional reputation, integrity, or competence. The Code of Ethics at times requires a member or candidate to uphold a higher standard than that required by law, rule, or regulation, or in this case the strict application of the employment agreement.2、Danielle Deschutes, CFA, is a portfolio manager who is part of a 10-person team that manages equity portfolios for institutional clients. A competing firm, South West Managers, asks Deschutes to interview for a position within its firm and to bring her performance history to the interview. Deschutes receives written permission from her current employer to bring the performance history of the stock portfolio with her. At the interview, she discloses that the performance numbers represent the work of her team and describes the role of each member. To bolster her credibility, Deschutes also provides the names of institutional clients and related assets constituting the portfolio. During her interview Deschutes most likely violated the CFA Institute Standards of Professional Conduct with regards to:【单选题】A.the stock portfolio’s performance history.B.her contribution to the portfolio’s returns.C.providing details of the institutional clients.正确答案:C答案解析:“Guidance for Standards I–VII,” CFA InstituteC is correct because Deschutes most likely violated Standard III (E) Preservation of Confidentiality by failing to preserve the confidentiality of client records when she disclosed specific details about clients in the equity portfolio.3、A discrete uniform distribution consists of the following twelve values: On a single draw from the distribution, the probability of drawing a value between -2.0 and 2.0 from the distribution is closest to:【单选题】A.16.67%.B.18.04%.C.27.59%.正确答案:A答案解析:“Common Probability Distributions,” Richard A. Defusco, CFA, Dennis W. McLeavey, CFA, Jerald E. Pinto, CFA, and David E. Runkle, CFA 2011 Modular Level I, Vol. 1, pp. 497-498 Study Session 3-9-f Calculate and interpret probabilities given the discrete uniform and the binomial distribution functions. First order the values from smallest to largest. Then note that two of the twelve values are between -2.0 and 2.0. Thus, the probability of a draw from the distribution being between -2.0 and 2.0 is 2/12 = 0.16667.4、Successful product development, advertising, and the creation of brand names are most likely to have a positive impact on the economic profits of the producer under:【单选题】A.a monopoly.B.perfect competition.C.monopolistic competition.正确答案:C答案解析:“Monopolistic Competition and Oligopoly,” Michael Parkineconomic profits.5、Which of the following actions on the part of a central bank is most consistent with increasing the quantity of money?【单选题】A.Increasing reserve requirementsB.Selling securities on the open marketC.Purchasing securities on the open market正确答案:C答案解析:“Monetary and Fiscal Policy,” Andrew Clare and Stephen ThomasC is correct. When a central bank purchases securities, bank reserves increase. The banks thus have excess reserves and are able to increase their lending, increasing the money supply.6、At the beginning of the year, a company had total shareholders’ equity consisting of ¥200,000 in common share capital and ¥50,000 in retained earnings.The total shareholders’ equity at the end of the year is closest to:【单选题】A.¥276,000.B.¥279,000.C.¥282,000.正确答案:A答案解析:“Understanding Balance Sheets,” Elaine Henry and Thomas R. Robinson[1663201704061-image/0232.jpg]7、The following information is from a company’s accounting records:The company’s total comprehensive income (in € millions) is closest to:【单选题】A.1,150.B.3,150.C.3,650.正确答案:C答案解析:“Understanding Income Statements,” Elaine Henry, CFA, and Thomas R. Robinson, CFA(12,500 – 10,000) + 1,475 – 325 = 3,650.8、The least likely way to terminate a swap is to:【单选题】A.purchase and exercise a swaption.B.pay the market value to the counterparty.C.sell an offsetting swap listed on an exchange.正确答案:C答案解析:“Swap Markets and Contracts,” Don M. ChanceC is correct because swaps are not listed on an exchange.9、Consider two ten-year bonds, one that contains no embedded options and the other that gives its owner the right to convert the bond to a fixed number of shares of the issuer’s common stock. The convertibility option in the second bond cannot be exercised for five years. The bonds are otherwise identical. Compared with the yield on the convertible bond, the yield on the option-free bond is most likely:【单选题】A.lower.B.higher.C.the same.正确答案:B答案解析:“Understanding Yield Spreads,” Frank J. FabozziB is correct because the convertibility option provides a benefit to the investor, who will accept a lower yield on the convertible bond compared with the option-free bond.10、According to the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS), which of the following is not apart of the verification process? Testing whether the:【单选题】A.firm has complied with all the composite construction requirements.B.verification is undertaken by the compliance department in the absence of a third party.C.firm's processes and procedures are designed to calculate results in compliance with GIPSstandards.正确答案:B答案解析:CFA Level I"Introduction to the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS)," CFA Institute, 2011。

Private equity investments have low liquidity and provide low diversification benefits. Hedge funds provide strong diversification benefits but have low liquidity.3、The realized return earned on Berio\\\\\'s strategy of investing solely in the 20-year U.S. Treasury bonds is closest to:【单选题】。
