Answer:
The correct answer to the following question will be "8%".
Explanation:
The given values are:
Number of years of maturity = 5 years
Interest rate of coupon = 10%
= 10%×1000
= 100
Yield to maturity, YTM = 8%
As we know,
Price of Bond = PV of Coupons + PV of Per Value
On putting the values in the above formula, we get
⇒ =
⇒ =
After 1 years, we get
Price of Bond = PV of Coupons + PV of Per Value
On putting the values in the above formula, we get
⇒ =
⇒ =
Now,
The total return rate =
=
=
Answer:
Explanation:
Expected return of the portfolio is weighted average of the return of the components.
E(R) = w1 * R1 + w2 * R2
E(R) = 65% * 18% + 35% * 6%
E(R) = 11.70% + 2.10%
Expected Return, E(R) = 13.80%
Standard deviation of portfolio is mathematically represented as:
where
w1 = the proportion of the portfolio invested in Asset 1
w2 = the proportion of the portfolio invested in Asset 2
σ1 = Asset 1 standard deviation of return
σ2 = Asset 2 standard deviation of return
For risk free money market fund, standard deviation = 0 and its correlation with risky portfolio = 0
Standard deviation = 19.50%
