A4 0.08  0.8 0.125
Market 0.11     1    0.2
RFR 0.03     0       0


Refer to Exhibit 18.6. Calculate the Jensen alpha Measure for each portfolio.
  a. A1 = 0.014, A2 = -0.002, A3 = 0.002, A4 = -0.02  
  b. A1 = 0.002, A2 = -0.02, A3 = 0.002, A4 = -0.014  
  c. A1 = 0.02, A2 = -0.002, A3 = 0.002, A4 = -0.014  
  d. A1 = 0.03, A2 = -0.002, A3 = 0.02, A4 = -0.14  
  e. A1 = 0.02, A2 = -0.002, A3 = 0.02, A4 = -0.14
