Summary Introduction

Adequate information:

Risk-free Asset E(rp)=11%

sp=15%

rf=5%

Expected rate of return or complete portfolio=8%

To compute: The proportion of investment in the risky portfolio (P) along with the proportion of risk-free asset.

Introduction:

Capital Allocation Line (CAL): It states the prevailing market equilibrium conditions for various portfolios which consist of both risky and risk-free investment. The formula used to calculate CAL is as follows:

  E(rc)=[rf+y×(E(rprf))]

Where

E(rc)= Expected return of the portfolio

rf=Risk free rate

y=Proportion invested

E(rp)=Expected return of the risky portfolio

Risk-aversion: It can be described as the preference of sure return or outcome over an investment which has either equal value or even more high value.
