If an equal amount of risk is added to a portfolio moving along the Markowitz Efficient Frontier to the northeast, the return will:   Decrease at an increasing rate Decrease at a decreasing rate Increase at an increasing rate Increase at a decreasing rate Remain constant None of the above answers is correct

Return on a portfolio of two risky assets which are perfectly negatively correlated is equivalent to a. Risk-free rate b. Return on market portfolio c. Zero return d. -1%

The portfolio with the highest Sharpe Ratio is I. The minimum-variance point on the efficient frontier II. The tangency point of the capital market line and the efficient frontier III. The maximum-return point on the efficient frontier  IV. The line with the steepest slope that connects the risk-free rate to the efficient frontier Select one: a. II and IV only b. I and IV only c. III and IV only d. Only IV e. I and II only

D3) Critically examine one of the key assumptions of Modern Portfolio Theory , the assumption of normally distributed returns. In doing so, also address the issue of the period used to calculate returns.

Question 5 Choose the correct answer for the following: (1) Which is the best measure of risk for choosing an asset which is to be held in isolation? (2) Which is the best measure for choosing an asset to be held as part of a diversified portfolio? O Variance; correlation coefficient. O Standard deviation; correlation coefficient. O Beta; variance. O Coefficient of variation; beta. O Beta; beta.

Select all that are true with respect to systematic and unsystematic risk. Group of answer choices Systematic risk is unimportant when estimating expected returns Unystematic risk is unimportant when estimating expected returns Total risk (Systematic + Unsystematic) is the key risk measure one needs to estimate expected returns In a well diversified portfolio, unsystematic risk is largely eliminated A key reason why the risk-return tradeoff is better for portfolios than in individual assets is because combining assets into portfolios reduces unsystematic risk A key reason why the risk-return tradeoff is better for portfolios than in individual assets is because combining assets into portfolios reduces systematic risk

Which statement is true? Multiple Choice ___ The larger the standard deviation, the lower the total risk. ___ The larger the standard deviation, the higher the total risk.  ___ The larger the standard deviation, the more portfolio risk. ___ The standard deviation is not an indication of total risk.
