An investor has a portfolio of two assets A and B. The details are shown in the below table. Portfolio Details Asset Expectedreturn Standarddeviation Covariance (A, B) Expected Portfolio Return A 0.06 0.5 0.12 0.1 B 0.08 0.8 Which one of the following statements is NOT correct? a. The portfolio weight in asset A is -100%. b. The correlation of asset A and B’s returns is 0.3. c. The investor can benefit from a fall in the price of asset A. d. The variance of the portfolio is 2.33. e. The order of short selling is borrowing, buying, selling, and returning.
Asset A has a standard deviation of 0.17, and asset B has a standard deviation of 0.52. Assets A and B have a correlation coefficient of 0.44.

Assume that using the Security Market Line(SML) the required rate of return(RA)on stock A is found to be halfof the required return (RB) on stock B. The risk-free rate (Rf) is one-fourthof the required return on A. Return on market portfolio is denoted by RM. Find the ratioof betaof A(A) tobeta of B(B). Thank you for your help.
