Given the following information:

\begin{tabular}
{|p{1.5cm}|p{1.5cm}|p{1.2cm}|p{1.2cm}|p{1.2cm}|}
\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.5cm}|}{State of economy}\multicolumn{1}{|p{2.6cm}|}{Probability of State of economy}\multicolumn{3}{|p{4.8cm}|}{Rate of Return if State Occurs}\\[1ex] 
\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.5cm}|}{}\multicolumn{1}{|p{2.6cm}|}{}\multicolumn{1}{|c|}{Stock A}&StockB&Stock C\\[2ex]
\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.5cm}|}{Boom}\multicolumn{1}{|p{2.6cm}|}{0.66}\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.27cm}|}{0.09}&0.03&0.34\\
\end{tabular}
\begin{tabular}
{|p{1.5cm}|p{1.5cm}|p{1.2cm}|p{1.2cm}|p{1.2cm}|}
\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.5cm}|}{Bust}\multicolumn{1}{|p{2.6cm}|}{0.34}\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.27cm}|}{0.23}&0.29&-0.14\\
\end{tabular}

Part A:

The expected return on an equally weighted portfolio of these three stocks is given by:

0.66[0.33 (0.09) + 0.33 (0.03) + 0.33(0.34)] \\ +0.34[0.33 (0.23) + 0.33(0.29) +0.33(-0.14)] \\  \\ =0.66(0.0297 + 0.0099 + 0.1122)+0.34(0.0759+0.0957-0.0462) \\  \\ =0.66(0.1518)+0.34(0.1254)=0.1002+0.0426=0.1428=\bold{14.28\%}



Part B:

Value of a portfolio invested 21 percent each in A and B and 58 percent in C is given by

For boom: 0.21(0.09) + 0.21(0.03) + 0.58(0.34) = 0.0189 + 0.0063 + 0.1972 = 0.2224 or 22.24%.

For bust: = 0.21(0.23) + 0.21(0.29) + 0.58(-0.14) = 0.0483 + 0.0609 - 0.0812 = 0.028 or 2.8%

Expected return = 0.66(0.2224) + 0.34(0.028) = 0.1468 + 0.00952 = 0.1563 or 15.63%

The variance is given by

0.66(0.2224-0.1563)^2+0.34(0.028-0.1563)^2 \\  \\ =0.66(0.0661)^2+0.34(-0.1283)^2=0.66(0.00437)+0.34(0.01646) \\  \\ =0.00288+0.0056=\bold{0.00848}

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

<u>900</u> black and white copies are printed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

For every 9 black and white copies printed there are 2 color copies printed.

If there are 200 color copies printed.

Now, to find the number of black and white copies are printed.

Let the number of black and white copies printed be x.

As given, for every 9 black and white copies printed there are 2 color copies printed.

So, 9 is equivalent to 2.

If there are 200 color copies printed.

Thus, x is equivalent to 200.

Now, to solve by using cross multiplication method:

\frac{9}{2} =\frac{x}{200}

<em>By cross multiplying we get:</em>

1800=2x

<em>Dividing both sides by 2 we get:</em>

900=x

x=900.

Therefore, 900 black and white copies are printed.
