The market portfolio has expected return of 12% and risk of 19%, and the risk-free rate is 5%. According to the CML, what is the portfolio weight for the risky market portfolio if an investor wants to achieve 8.5% return? What about 16.2%? And 19% return?

Based on the hypothetical portfolios provided in the table below, which of the portfolios would lie on the Efficient Frontier? Portfolio Expected Return Risk A B с D E 4% 6% 8% 8% 10% 3% 3% 5% 8% 12%

You are given the following information concerning three portfolios, the market portfolio, and the risk- free asset: Portfolio X Y Z Market Risk-free Rp 14.5% R-squared 13.5 9.1 10.7 5.4 op 36% 31 21 26 0 6p 1.60 1.30 .80 1.00 0 Assume that the correlation of returns on Portfolio Y to returns on the market is 72. What percentage of Portfolio Y's return is driven by the market? (Enter your answer as a decimal not a percentage. Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)

The beta on risky asset A is 1.8 and the beta on risky asset Bis 1.1. The expected return on the market portfolio is 10% and the risk free rate of return is 4%. Consider a portfolio comprising the two riskypssets and the risk-free asset where you invest 50% in risky asset A and 30% in risky asset B.

Consider two well-diversified portfolios: Portfolio 1 has an expected return of 8% and a beta of 0.80 while Portfolio 2 has an expected return of 13% and a beta of 1.50. If the risk-free rate is 1.5%, which portfolio would a rational risk-averse investor prefer and why? O A. Portfolio 2 because it has the higher reward to risk ratio. O B. Portfolio 1 because it has the higher reward to risk ratio. OC. Portfolio 2 because it has the higher reward. O D. Portfolio 1 because it has the lower risk.

Consider a portfolio that offers an expected rate of return of 13% and a standard deviation of 20%. T-bills offer a risk-free 4% rate of return. What is the maximum level of risk aversion for which the risky portfolio is still preferred to T-bills? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Maximum level of risk aversion must be
