* To restore the ratio from .90 to 1.00, total value of the fund, 19,000, is simply split in two equal
segments of 9,500; and 9500/9,500 = 1.00. The 500 transferred from the conservative portfolio will
buy 22.2 Shares at the prevailing price of 22.50.
You may notice that the constant-ratio plan calls for more transactions than the constant-
dollar-value plan did, but the actions triggered by this plan are less aggressive. This plan
yielded an increase in total value at the end of the cycle compared with the total value
yielded under constant-dollar-value plan. It did, however, outperform the buy-and-hold
strategy. Let us now explain and illustrate variable-ratio plan.
5. Variable-ratio Plan: Variable-ratio plan is a more flexible variation of constant ratio
plan. Under the variable ratio plan, it is provided that if the value of aggressive portfolio
changes by certain percentage or more, the initial ratio between the aggressive portfolio
and conservative portfolio will be allowed to change as per the pre-determined schedule.
Some variations of this plan provide for the ratios to vary according to economic or
