- An investor has an opportunity to invest in two risky assets and a risk-free asset. Theexpected return of the two risky assets are μ1 = 0.12, μ2 = 0.15. Their standarddeviations are σ1 = 0.05 and σ2 = 0.1, and the correlation coefficient between theirreturn is 0.2. The risk-free rate is 0.05. Suppose the investor has $1000 and he wantsto hold a portfolio with expected return of 0.1. If the investor is risk averse, how muchshould he invest in the two risky assets and the risk-free asset?You can invest in a portfolio of two assets: the riskfree asset with rate of return 10%, and a risky portfolio with expected return 14% and stdev 35%. You optimally choose to invest equal amount in the two assets. What is your utility?There are two risky assets and a riskfree asset. The riskfree rate is 0.03. The first risky asset has expected rate of return 0.18 and standard deviation 0.3; the second risky asset 0.09 and 0.2. Their correlation is 0.1. A portfolio on the best feasible CAL has an expected return of 0.12. Then this portfolio's portfolio weight on the first risky asset is 0%. (Enter a percentage number and keep 3 decimal places).
- Consider an economy with a (net) risk-free return r1 = 0:1 and a market portfolio with normally distributed return, with ErM = 0:2 and 2M = 0:02. Suppose investor A has CARA preferences, with risk aversion coe¢ cient equal to 1 and an endowment of 10. a) Write down the maximization problem for the investor. b) Determine the amount invested in the risky portfolio and in the risk-free asset. c) Suppose another investor (B) has a coe¢ cient of absolute risk aversion equal to 2 (and the same endowment 10). Compute his optimal portfolio and compare it to that of investor A. Explain the di§erent results for investors A and B. d) Finally, consider Investor C with mean-variance preferences Ec V ar(c) (and endowment 10). Compute his optimal portfolio and compare it to that of investors A and B (as obtained in questions b and c). Compare your result with those obtained for investors A and B.The optimal proportion of the risky asset in the complete portfolio is given by the equation below y*= E(Rp− Rf) A0² For each of the variables on the right side of the equation, discuss the impact of the variable's effect on y* and why the nature of the relationship makes sense intuitively. Assume the investor is risk averseSuppose you are considering investing your entire portfolio in three assets A, B and C. You expect that after you invest, four possible mutually exclusive scenarios will occur, with associated returns (in %) for each of the three assets as listed below. The probability of each scenario is given below (Attached image). Find the expected returns and standard deviations of Asset A, B & C. (HINT: the expected return is given by the probability-weighted sum of returns in each scenario. The expected standard deviation is given by the square root of the probability-weighted sum of squared deviations from the expected return.) Is there any reason to invest in Asset A given its low expected return and high standard deviation?
- Supposing the return from an investment has the following probability distribution Return Probability R (%) 8 0.2 10 0.2 12 0.5 14 0.1 Required: What is the expected return of the investment? What is the risk as measured by the standard deviation of expected returns?Two assets have the following expected returns and standard deviations when the risk-free rate is 5%: Asset A E(rA) = 10% σA = 20% Asset B E(rB) = 15% σB = 27% An investor with a risk aversion of A = 3 would find that _________________ on a risk-return basis.There is a riskless asset with a return of 0.026, and a risky asset with an expected return of 0.240 and standard deviation of 0.468. If you were building a portfolio for an investor with a risk aversion of A=4.7, what proportion of their assets would you invest in the risky asset?
- Assume that there is a portfolio with an E(r) =20% and σ = 30%. Also, the risk-free rate of return on T-Bills is 7%. If you are a risk-averse investor with degree of risk aversion A=4 would you invest in the risky portfolio or in the risk free asset? And what if your A=2? Assume that there is a portfolio with an E(r) =20% and σ = 30%. Also, the risk-free rate of return on T-Bills is 7%. If you are a risk-averse investor with degree of risk aversion A=4 would you invest in the risky portfolio or in the risk free asset? And what if your A=2?Asset W has an expected return of 13.4 percent and a beta of 1.6. If the risk-free rate is 5.0 percent, complete the following table for portfolios of Asset W and a risk-free asset. (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your expected return answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16. Round your beta answers to 3 decimal places, e.g., 32.161.) Asset W has an expected return of 13.4 percent and a beta of 1.6. If the risk-free rate is 5.0 percent, complete the following table for portfolios of Asset W and a risk-free asset. (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your expected return answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16. Round your beta answers to 3 decimal places, e.g., 32.161.)Now assume that your portfolio only includes a risky asset, Asset C and a risk-free asset, Asset D. If the expected return on Asset D is 18%, the expected return on your po is 12% and the percentage of your wealth allocated to Asset C is 30%, what is the risk-free rate?
