Suppose you have $200,000 in cash, and you decide to borrow another $24,000 at a 6% interest rate to invest in the stock market. You invest the entire $224,000 in a portfolio J with a 21% expected return and a 27% volatility. a. What is the expected return and volatility (standard deviation) of your investment? b. What is your realized return if J goes up 39% over the year? c. What return do you realize if J falls by 35% over the year? a. What is the expected return and volatility (standard deviation) of your investment? The expected return of your investment is ☐ %. (Round to two decimal places.)
