10. There is a risky portfolio of multiple stocks with an expected return of 14% and a standard deviation of 21%. Jason invests 65% of his total wealth on this risky portfolio and the rest 35% on Treasury bills (so, he has constructed a ‘complete portfolio’ of a risky asset and a risk-free asset). One-year T-bill rate is 3%. a. Calculate the expected return and standard deviation of his complete portfolio b. Calculate his risk premium of the risky portfolio as well as of the complete portfolio c. Compute the Sharpe ratio d. Draw the capital allocation line

Mr. Scared, a portfolio manager has a P10 million portfolio, which consist of P1 million invested in 10 separate stocks. The portfolio beta is 1.2. The risk free rate is 5% and the market risk premium is 6%. What is the portfolio’s required rate of return? Given the same details of Mr. Scared's case, what is the new required return of his portfolio using CAPM if he sells one of the stocks in his portfolio for P1 million which has a beta of 0.9 and uses the P1 million to purchase a new stock that has a beta of 1.6?

Security A has a beta of 0, security B has a beta of 0.5 and Security C has a beta of -0.3. Discuss which security will be most effective in reducing the portfolio's systematic risk? How would portfolio expected return change (higher or lower) if you add this security?
2B) You have $600,000 to invest in the stock market. Suppose you invested one-third of your wealth in stock Q and the rest in stock L. These stocks have the following characteristics: Stock Q has an expected return of 10% and a standard deviation of 7%. Stock L has an expected return of 18% and a standard deviation of 11%. Determine the expected return and standard deviation on a portfolio of stocks Q and L, when the two stocks are uncorrelated and when they are negatively perfectly correlated. Interpret and compare your answers in these two cases.
4. You have $116,000 to invest in a portfolio containing Stock X, Stock Y, and a risk-free asset. You must invest all of your money. Your goal is to create a portfolio that has an expected return of 11 percent and that has only 60 percent of the risk of the overall market. If X has an expected return of 28 percent and a beta of 1.8, Y has an expected return of 18 percent and a beta of 1.1, and the risk-free rate is 7 percent, how much money will you invest in Stock Y? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.) Amount $
Consider that an investor has a total of £300,000 to invest. The investor invested £200,000 in asset A and the remainder in asset B.

A client wants to invest 44% of her money in a portfolio of risky assets and the rest in Treasury bills (the risk-free asset). The expected return on the risky portfolio is 25.4% and the standard deviation, is 10.6%. T-bills pay 3%. What is the risk of the client's complete portfolio? Enter your answer as a % with one decimal (e.g., 20.5)
You have just invested in a portfolio of three stocks. The amount of money that you invested in each stock and its beta are summarized below. Stock Investment Beta A $222,000 1.41 B 333,000 0.53 C 555,000 1.30 Calculate the beta of the portfolio and use the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) to compute the expected rate of return for the portfolio. Assume that the expected rate of return on the market is 12 percent and that the risk-free rate is 7 percent.
