Answer:

a = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this expression 131=11-15a  you will simply combine the terms and then evaluate for the value of a

131=11-15a

collect or combine the like terms

131 - 11 = -15a

120 = -15a

divide both sides by  the coefficient of a which is -15

120/-15 = -15a/-15

-8 = a

a = -8

therefore the value of a in the expression 131=11-15a is equals to -8

You manage a risky portfolio with an expected rate of return of 18% and a standard deviation of 28%. The T-bill rate is 8%. Your
Fofino [41]

Answer:

y = 0.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- The expected rate of return for risky portfolio E(r_p) = 0.18

- The T-bill rate is r_f = 0.08

Find:

Investing proportion y of the total investment budget so that the overall portfolio will have an expected rate of return of 16%.

What is the proportion y?

Solution:

- The proportion y is a fraction of expected risky portfolio and the left-over for the T-bill compliance. Usually we see a major proportion is for risky portfolio as follows:

                                     E(r_c) = y*E(r_p) + (1 - y)*r_f

                                     y*E(r_p) + (1 - y)*r_f = 0.16

- Re-arrange for proportion y:

                                     y = ( 0.16 - r_f ) / (E(r_p) - r_f)

- Plug in values:

                                    y = ( 0.16 - 0.08 ) / (0.18 - 0.08)

                                    y = 0.80

- Hence, we see that 80% of the total investment budget becomes a part of risky portfolio returns.
