Bond Fund             12                                         15


The correlation between the fund returns is 0.10.

 

Tabulate the investment opportunity set of the two risky funds. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

 

Proportion in Stock fund Proportion in bond fund Expexted return  Standard deviation
