Calculations
1 Correlation coefficientHPE, S&P 500
= CovarianceHPE, S&P 500 ÷ (Standard deviationHPE × Standard deviationS&P 500)
= 31.70 ÷ (9.11% × 5.13%)
= 0.68
2 βHPE
= CovarianceHPE, S&P 500 ÷ VarianceS&P 500
= 31.70 ÷ 26.34
= 1.20
3 αHPE
= AverageHPE – βHPE × AverageS&P 500
= 0.82% – 1.20 × 0.78%
