At time T:
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 12,240.01, based on a divisor of 0.1230179
Sum of Prices of 30 stocks = 1505.74
Calculation of Divisor = sum of prices of 30 stocks/ Dow Jones Industrial Average
= 1505.74/ 12,240.01 = 0.12301787 = 0.1230179 (approx.)
At time T+1:
Sum of Prices of 30 stocks = 1469.29
Divisor = sum of prices of 30 stocks/ Dow Jones Industrial Average
0.1230179 = 1469.29/ Dow Jones Industrial Average
Dow Jones Industrial Average = 1469.29/ 0.1230179
= 11,943.709
Calculation of Return on Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) from T to T+1:
Return on DJIA = (DJIA at T+!) - (DJIA at T)/ DJIA at T
= (11,943.709 - 12,240.01)/ 11,943.709
= -296.301/ 11,943.709
= -0.02480812
= -2.48% (approx)
