9. Suppose you plan to form your overall investment portfolio in two steps: STEP 1: Choose a portfolio of stocks with a zero position in the risk-free asset. STEP 2: Allocate your money between the portfolio from Step 1 and the risk-free asset. Suppose you can borrow and lend as much as you want at the risk-free rate in Step 2. Let Erp be the expected return of the Step 1 portfolio. Let Var(rp) be the variance of the return of the Step 1 portfolio. Let rf be the risk-free rate. How will you form the Step 1 Portfolio? Set the Step 1 portfolio to maximize Erp SettheStep1portfoliotominimizeVar(rp) Set the Step 1 portfolio to maximize Erp - Var(rp) Set the Step 1 portfolio to maximize the ratio Erp/Var(rp) Set the Step 1 portfolio to maximize the ratio (Erp- rf)/Var(rp) None of the above.
Suppose there are two independent economic factors, M₁ and M2. The risk-free rate is 6%, and all stocks have independent firm- specific components with a standard deviation of 58%. Portfolios A and B are both well diversified. Portfolio Beta on M1 Beta on M2 A 1.7- 2.4 2.3 -0.8 Expected Return (%) 37 10 B Required: What is the expected return-beta relationship in this economy? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places. Expected return-beta relationship E(rp) = % + BP1+ BP2
Which of the following statements is CORRECT? (Assume that the risk-free rate is a constant.) a. The effect of a change in the market risk premium depends on the slope of the yield curve. b. If the market risk premium increases by 1%, then the required return on all stocks will rise by 1%. c. If the market risk premium increases by 1%, then the required return will increase by 1% for a stock that has a beta of 1.0. d. The effect of a change in the market risk premium depends on the level of the risk-free rate. e. If the market risk premium increases by 1%, then the required return will increase for stocks that have a beta greater than 1.0, but it will decrease for stocks that have a beta less than 1.0.

Assume that both portfolios A and B are well diversified, that E(rA) = 20% and E(rB) = 15%. If the economy has only one factor, and BetaA = 1.3, whereas BetaB = 0.8, what must be the risk-free rate (write as percentage, rounded to two decimal places)?
The risky portfolio expected return and standard deviation is 14% and 20%, respectively. The risk free rate is 5%. The risk aversion coefficient A is 2.5 and 4 for Mary and Kim, respectively. Answer the following questions: A. Who is more risk averse? B. What is the capital allocation y to the risky portfolio for each investor? C. Suppose investors have the following utility function: U = E(R) - ¹2 Ao² Calculate the Utility level for each investor's optimal complete portfolio.
Suppose that there are two independent economic factors, F1 and F2, the risk-free rate is 6%, and all stocks have independent firm-specific components with a standard deviation of 30%.
