In addition to price-weighted and value-weighted indexes, an equally weighted index is one in which the index value is computed from the average rate of return of the stocks comprising the index. Equally weighted indexes are frequently used by financial researchers to measure portfolio performance. The following three defense stocks are to be combined into a stock index in January 2016 (perhaps a portfolio manager believes these stocks are an appropriate benchmark for his or her performance): Price Shares (millions)...

A value-weighted index consisting of stocks A, B, and C was created yesterday. When the index was created, stocks A,B, and C traded for $80, $45, and $125, respectively. The number of shares outstanding for A,B, and C, was 500, 900, and 600 when the index was formed. Today, stocks A, B, and C trade for $65, $50, and $145, respectively. Find the return on the index from yesterday to today Round intermediate steps and your final answer to four...
