Question

Please show all work, computations, formulas. Thanks!

An optimal risky portfolio has been developed with investments in stocks and bonds This optimal portfolio has 24% invested in bonds and the remainder invested in stocks The optimal portfolio mean return is 12.05% and its standard deviation is 18.45% The t-bill rate is 4.75%; what is the mean of the complete portfolio if 33% is invested in the optimal portfolio and theremainder is invested in T-bills? a What is the resulting allocation to stocks and bonds in this complete portfolio? b Calculate the Sharpe ratio for the complete portfolio lease showall computations Il a Express Excess return on a security in terms of Beta firm specificrisk alpha Ascatter diagram for D Corp shows observations of annual returns over a ten year period The Security characteristicLine [regression line] for D Corp shows the following Beta Alpha 1.25 3.25% If the market excess return is 17%, what is the expected return for D Corp?

Explanation / Answer

question 3

let Ws=weight of stock=45%=0.45

Wb=weight of bonds=55%=0.55

A)

so, E[Rp]=Wb*E[Rb]+Ws*E[Rs]

E[Rp]=0.55*5.50%+0.45*11%=3.025%+4.95%=7.975%

B)

portfolio variance = Wb^2 * (Sdevn b)^2 + Ws^2 * (Sdevn s)^2 + 2WbWs*Corr(b,s)*(Sdevn b)*(Sdevn s)

=0.552*7.852+0.452*19.252+2*0.55*0.45*0.22*7.85*19.25

=18.64+75.04+16.46

=110.14

now portfolio sdevn=sqrt(variance)=sqrt(110.14)=10.495%
