*Data obtained from federal government sources.
2) Since household/consumer spending (consumption) represents almost 70% of the nation's GDP, any change will cause a major change in the total GDP. E.g. if consumption increases by 5%, then the whole economy will grow by 5% x 68% = 3.4%.
It is given that Joseph purchased 100 shares of ABCD Growth Fund for a price of $10.00 per share with a total investment of $1,000. At the end of the year he sold his investment for $11.20 per share. Find the total capital gain.
To get the capital gain, compute the total price in which Joseph sold his investment.
$11.20 x 100 = $1,120

Answer:
Expected Portfolio return = 0.5(10)+0.5(13)= 5+6.5=11.5%
Expected Portfolio SD= 0.5(20)+0.5(30)= 25%
Beta of A, 10= 5+B(6)
5=6B
B= 5/6= 0.833
B of B, 13=5+B(6)
8=6B
B=8/6
B=1.33
b. Portfolio AB's standard deviation is 25%
c. Stock A's beta is 0.8333
These two statements are correct
