چکیده

This paper proposes measures of systematic skewness and systematic kurtosis as symmetric measures of risk by extending the work of Kraus and Litzenberg (1976). We examine an asset pricing model that incorporates systematic skewness and systematic kurtosis to test the cross section of asset returns within the context of the Fama and MacBeth (1973) two-pass estimation methodology. However, this estimation suffers from the errors-in-variables (EIV) problems that could attenuate the significance of risk premium betas. We propose the Dagenais and Dagenais (1997) higher-moment estimators as a solution for the EIV problems. Our results suggest that although the EIV correction leads to a diminished role of the market beta, the systematic skewness and systematic kurtosis still retain their significance in explaining the cross section of expected returns.

An approximate model for slug flow heat transfer in channels of arbitrary cross section

In this paper, a novel approximate solution to determine the Nusselt number for thermally developed, slug (low-prandtl), laminar, single phase flow in channels of arbitrary cross section is presented. Using the Saint-Venant principle in torsion of beams, it is shown that the thermally developed Nusselt number for low-prandtl flow is only a function of the geometrical parameters of the channel c...

An Examination of the Relationship between Values at Risk and Expected Stock Return in Tehran’s Stock Exchange

Abstract The main objective of this study was to examine the relationship between Value at Risk (VaR) and expected returns from 2002 to 2013 in Tehran’s Stock Exchange. In this study parametric value at risk, which considers the distribution of returns as normal and the historical value at risk as abnormal, was used to test the presence of the volatility anomaly in the companies listed i...

A fuzzy production model with probabilistic resalable returns

In this paper, a fuzzy production inventory model with resalable returns has been analysed in an imprecise and uncertain environment by considering the cost and revenue parameters as trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. The main objective is to determine the optimal fuzzy production lotsize which maximizes the expected profit where the products leftout at the end of the period are salvaged and demands wh...
