Your client chooses to invest $75,000 of her portfolio in your eq50uity fund and $75,000 in a T-bill money market fund. What is the expected return and standard deviation of return on your client’s portfolio? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
What does the expected return equal (%)?
What does the standard deviaiton equal
(%)?
Total investment : 75000+75000 = 150000
Return on equity =risk free rate +risk premium
= 6.4 +12.6
= 19%
Expected return : [19*75000/150000]+[6.4*75000/150000]
= 9.5+ 3.2
= 12.70%
standard deviation of portfolio = SD of equity *weight of equity
= 40 *75000/150000
= 20%
**as treasury bill is risk free security.
