Problem 5 Assume that you manage a risky portfolio with an expected rate of return of 18% and a standard deviation of 28%. The T-bill rate (risk-free rate) is 7%. Your client chooses to invest 70% in the risky portfolio in your fund and 30% in a T-bill money market fund. We assume that investors use mean-variance utility: U = E(r) – 0.5 x Aa?, where E(r) is the expected return, A is the risk aversion coefficient and o? is the variance of returns. a) What is the expected value and standard deviation of the rate of return on your client's portfolio? b) What is the reward-to-volatility ratio (Sharpe ratio) of your risky portfolio? What is the reward-to-volatility ratio (Sharpe ratio) of your client's risky portfolio?
