Abstract Investors’ perception of performance is biased because the relevant measure, returns, is rarely displayed. Major indices ignore dividends, thereby underreporting market performance. Newspapers are more pessimistic on ex-dividend days, consistent with mistaking the index for returns. Market betas should track returns, but track prices more than dividends, creating predictable returns. Mutual funds receive inflows for “beating the S&P 500” price index based on net asset value (also not a return). Investors extrapolate market indices, not returns, when forming annual performance expectations. Displaying returns by default would ameliorate these issues, which arise despite high attention and agreement on the appropriate measure.

ABSTRACT: We investigate the determinants of hedge fund internal controls and their association with the fees that funds charge investors. Hedge funds are subject to minimal regulation. Hence, hedge fund managers voluntarily implement internal controls, and managers and investors freely contract on fees. We find that internal controls are stronger in funds with higher potential agency costs. Further, internal controls are stronger in funds domiciled in jurisdictions that provide investors with limited legal redress for fraud and financial misstatements. Short selling funds, however, are more likely to protect information about their investment positions by implementing weaker internal controls. With respect to fees, we find that the percentage of positive profits that the manager receives increases in the strength of the fund’s internal controls. Finally, removing the manager from setting and reporting the fund’s official net asset value, along with reputational incentives and monitoring by leverage providers, are all associated with lower likelihoods of future regulatory investigations of fraud and/or financial misstatement.

This research measured and compared the performance between Islamic mutual funds and conventional mutual funds using Sharpe Ratio, Treynor Index, Jensen Alpha, Modigliani Measure, Appraisal Ratio, and Adjusted Sharpe Ratio. This research used quantitative approach with panel data that was measured by using different test and it aimed to find out the comparation of the samples. This research used Net Asset Value (NAV), Joint Stock Price Index, BI Rate to find out return and risk that will be implemented on the measured methods. The results of the research based on T-test are that there is no significant difference of performance between Islamic mutual funds and conventional mutual funds, except the Appraisal Ratio method that shows the difference on Islamic mutual funds that has a better performance.Keywords: Sharpe Ratio, Treynor Index, Jensen Alpha, Modigliani Measure, Appraisal Ratio, Adjusted Sharpe Ratio

Valuation of closely held corporate stock may rest upon several methodologies: restrictive agreements, earning capacity, dividend paying capacity, book or net asset value, goodwill and other intangible assets, as well as minority and controlling interests. Rev. Rul. 59-60 provides guidelines for valuation in the event of few or no market quotations and no restrictive agreements. Various cases have focused on critical factors in the valuation process with little guidance from the courts as to weight or value of such factors.
