Answer:

Whole numbers with more digits are greater than whole numbers with fewer digits.
Unless there is a decimal making the number have more digits then the answer to the blank would be greater than.

Answer:
(a) 41300 (b) 8.10 % (c) 3.41% (at real rates)
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution
Given:
(a) The Weights of assets in Rachel's portfolio: = amount in each stock/ sum of amounts invested in all stocks
Share Amount Weights
A 13500 0.33
B 7600 0.18
C 14700 0.36
D 5500 0.13
THE TOTAL: 41300
(b) The Geometric average return of a portfolio = ((1+R1)*(1+R2)*(1+R3)....*(1+Rn))^(1/n) - 1
Now,
R1= return of period 1 Rn= return in nth period
Thus,
The Geometric average return of Rachel's portfolio=
((1+9.7%)*(1+12.4%)*(1-5.5%)*(1+17.2%))^(1/4) - 1
= 8.10 % (approx) per year.
(c) Using nominal rate of return (including inflation):
The CAPM: Required return= Risk free return + (Risk premium * Beta)
13.6 = Rf + (4.8*1.5)
So,
Rf= 6.4% (not inflation adjusted)
The inflation adjusted rate of return: ((1+return)/(1+inflation rate))-1
= ((1+13.6%)/(1+2.7%))-1 = 10.61%
Using CAPM: 10.61= Rf + (4.8*1.5)
Therefore, Rf= 3.41% (at real rates)
