Fill the parts in the above table that are shaded in yellow and show workings manually. Using the data generated in the previous question, plot the Security market line (SML). Superimpose the CAPM’s required return on the SML. Indicate which investments will plot on, above and below the SML? If an investment’s expected return (mean return) does not plot on the SML, what does it show? Identify undervalued/overvalued investments from the graph. From the information generated in the previous two questions, identify two investments alternatives that can be combined in a portfolio. Assume a 50-50 investment allocation in each investment alternative. Compute the expected return of the portfolio thus formed. Compute the portfolio’s beta. Is the portfolio aggressive or defensive?
