 Capital asset pricing model - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The capital asset pricing model (CAPM) is used in finance to determine a theoretically appropriate required rate of return (and thus the price if expected cash flows can be estimated) of an asset, if that asset is to be added to an already well-diversified portfolio, given that asset's non-diversifiable risk.
The CAPM formula takes into account the asset's sensitivity to non-diversifiable risk (also known as systematic risk or market risk), in a number often referred to as beta (β) in the financial industry, as well as the expected return of the market and the expected return of a theoretical risk-free asset.
An investor might choose to invest a proportion of his or her wealth in a portfolio of risky assets with the remainder in cash - earning interest at the risk free rate (or indeed may borrow money to fund his or her purchase of risky assets in which case there is a negative cash weighting).

 Capital Assets and Depreciation
Major assets that will be used in your business for more than a year are known as "capital assets" and are subject to special treatment under the tax laws.
It follows that, for "capital assets" (assets that have a useful life of more than one year), the cost must be written off (that is, depreciated or amortized) over more than one year.
Theoretically, the cost of an asset should be deducted over the number of years that the asset will be used, according to the actual drop in value that the asset will suffer each year.

 The Capital Spectator: ASSET CLASS CORRELATIONS
Diversifying across asset classes (otherwise known as asset allocation) is the foundation on which prudent, long-term successful investment strategies are built.
One of the essential issues for allocating among the various asset classes is carefully choosing those pieces that will offer the most diversification bang for the buck, and then weighting the asset accordingly.
Modern portfolio theory advises that there are three primary variables that feed into this decision: volatility of returns, expected returns for each asset, and the correlation of returns among the assets.
