Re: Yields[ Q1-Q3 99 Archive ] [ Current Message Board ] [ Archives ] [ Search ] Posted by Peter Petula on April 17, 1999 at 23:39:03:In Reply to: Re: Yields posted by Mark on April 17, 1999 at 11:54:33: : : : : : Dear Mark, : : : : : what type of yield should I use in a custom Report to get the yield of an investment fund for which I had to pay the load percentage plus transfer fees ? All yield calculations I have tried so far calculate based on the NAV when buying. So for instance I have bought shares @ 69.85 for a total of 74.45, the current price is 70.25 but the yields shows plus 23.75 % I would like to calculate the yield from buying day until today. Any suggestions ? : : : : : Best regards : : : : : Peter : : : : Hi Peter, : : : : Thanks, : : : Hi Mark, : : : my intent ist to take the total aquisition cost (i.e shareprice + load + fees) as a basis for yield annualized calculation. As lond as this gross price plus distributions is higher than the latest share price I would expect to get a negative yield. But this ist not the case in all combinations I have tried so far. The reason why I want to calculate the yield this way is that I like to take all cost into consideration which are associated with a particular investment at purchase time. : : : Best regards, : : : Peter : : Sorry, I just noticed an error in my previous message. The second sentence should read: As long as this gross price is higher than the latest share price (including distributions, if any)I would expect to get a negative yield. If required for examination, I could send you a copy of the .dat file of the investment. : : Peter : Hi Peter, : Thanks, Hi Mark, many thanks for your patient help but the problem persist. Before I decided to ask you I knew from the descriptions in the help files that it had to be ROI I was looking for. But only when I didn�t get the expected figures I was trying any other available field of the custum report. Thanks, Peter
