Explanation:
If the price of corn is above its equilibrium price, corn becomes more expensive to consumers. As a result, they reduce the quantity demanded of corn. there would be a movement along the demand curve for corn and not a shift of the demand curve.
Quantity supplied would also increase as a result of the high price. The fall in quantity demanded coupled with the rise in quantity supplied would lead to a surplus. Due to the surplus, sellers would reduce price until price falls to equilibrium price

Answer:
The portfolio return is 12.6% and the portfolio SD is 15.4%. Thus, option a is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The expected return of a portfolio is the weighted average of the individual stock returns that form up the portfolio. Thus, the expected return for a two stock portfolio is,
Return of Portfolio = wA * rA + wB * rB
Where,
- w represents the weight of each stock in the portfolio
- r represents the return of each stock
Portfolio return = 0.7 * 0.15 + 0.3 * 0.07 = 0.126 or 12.6%
The standard deviation of a two stock portfolio containing one risky and one risk free asset is the weight of risky asset in the portfolio multiplied by the standard deviation of the risky asset. The risk free asset has zero standard deviation.
Standard deviation of such a portfolio is,
Portfolio SD = w of risky asset * SD of risky asset
Portfolio SD = 0.7 * 0.22
Portfolio SD = 0.154 or 15.4%
