Answer: 9.45%

Explanation:

To solve this question, we need to know the weights of securities A and B and this will be:

Weight of A = STD of B / (STD of A + STD of B)

= 40% / (70% + 40%)

= 40% / 110%

= 0.4/1.1

= 0.3636

Weight of security A = 0.3636

Weight of security B = 1 - 0.3636 = 0.6364

Then, the rate of return of risk free portfolio will be:

= (Return of A × Weight of A) + (Return of B × Weight of B)

= (12% × 0.3636) + (8% × 0.6364)

= 0.043632 + 0.050912

= 0.094544

= 9.45%

Ainat [17]

Answer:

i=4.84%

Explanation:

the key to answer this question, is to remember the model of return for a perpeuity dividend calculation:

Value=\frac{1}{i-k}

where value is the current stock price, i is the dividend yield and k is the growth rate, so applying to this particular case we have

k=3.4/91

k=3.74%

and solving i for the previous formula:

91=\frac{1}{i-0.0374}

0.01098={i-0.0374}

i=4.84\%
