Assume that you manage a risky portfolio with an expected rate of return of 18% and a standard deviation of 42%. The T-bill rate
amm1812

Answer:

a. Expected Return = 16.20 %

   Standard Deviation = 35.70%

b. Stock A  = 22.10%

   Stock B  = 29.75%

   Stock C  = 33.15%

   T-bills  = 15%

Explanation:

a. To calculate the expected return of the portfolio, we simply multiply the Expected return of the stock with the weight of the stock in the portfolio.

Thus, the expected return of the client's portfolio is,

  • w1 * r1 + w2 * r2
  • 85% * 18% + 15% * 6% = 16.20%

The standard deviation of a portfolio with a risky and risk free asset is equal to the standard deviation of the risky asset multiply by its weightage in the portfolio as the risk free asset like T-bill has zero standard deviation.

  • 85% * 42% = 35.70%

b. The investment proportions of the client is equal to his investment in T-bills and risky portfolio. If the risky portfolio investment is considered of the set proportion investment in Stock A, B & C then the 85% investment of the client will be divided in the following proportions,

  • Stock A = 85% * 26% = 22.10%
  • Stock B = 85% * 35% = 29.75%
  • Stock C = 85% * 39% = 33.15%
  • T-bills = 15%
  • These all add up to make 100%
