- 10) Given an optimal risky portfolio with expected return of 15%, standard deviation of 26%, and a risk free rate of 5%, what is the slope of the best feasible CAL? A) 0.64 B) 0.27 C) 0.08 D) 0.38 E) 0.36 Provide explanation for the correct answer.Suppose that the return on the risk-free asset is rRFrRF = 15%, the return on the market portfolio is r̂Mr̂M = 20%, the market risk is σMσM = 10%, and the portfolio risk is σpσp = 15%. Then the expected rate of return on an efficient portfolio equals . Generally, a less risky portfolio would havea lower rate of return.Suppose that optimal risky portfolio has an expected return of 16% and a varianceof 0.04. The risk-free rate is 4%.a) Find the slope of Capital Market Line (Optimal Capital Allocation Line)?b) What is the expected return of a portfolio C, which is on Capital Market Line and has astandard deviation of 0.08?
- The risk free rate is 3%. The optimal risky portfolio has an expected return of 9% and standarddeviation of 20%. Answer the following questions.a) Assume the utility function of an investor is U = E(r) − 0.5Aσ2. What is condition ofA to make the investors prefer the optimal risky portfolio than the risk free asset? b) Assume the utility function of an investor is U = E(r) − 2.5σ2. What is the expectedreturn and standard deviation of the investor’s optimal complete portfolio?If the market portfolio has a required return of 0.12 and a standard deviation of 0.40, and the riskfreerate is 0.04, what is the slope of the security market line?Consider a risky portfolio, A, with an expected rate of return of 0.15 and a standard deviation of 0.15, that lies on a given indifference curve. Which one of the following portfolios might lie on the same indifference curve? A. E(r) = 0.15; Standard deviation = 0.20 B. E(r) = 0.20; Standard deviation = 0.15 C. E(r) = 0.10; Standard deviation = 0.10 D. E(r) = 0.10; Standard deviation = 0.20 E. E(r) = 0.15; Standard deviation = 0.10
- Suppose now that your portfolio must yleld an expected return of 12% and be efficient, that is, on the best feasible CAL. Required: a. What is the standard deviation of your portfolio?5. There are three risky assets with rates of return r₁, 12, and r3, respectively. The covariance matrix and the expected rates of return are [0.4 0.2 0 = Σ 0.2 0.4 0.2 0 0.2 0.4 [0.04] 0.08 0.06 (a) Find the global minimum-variance portfolio. (b) For the required return z = 0.075, find (the weight of) the optimal portfolio with risky assets. For (c) and (d) only, assume there is an additional risk-free asset with return Tf 0.03. = (c) Find the tangent portfolio.Using the following data: Scenario Probability return K1 return K2 0.2 -10% 5% W2 0.4 0% 30% W3 0.4 20% -5% compute the weights in the portfolio with minimum risk. What are the expected return and risk of this minimum risk portfolio?
