- Course: FinanceAs a great investor, you are interested in 3 assets to invest: A, B and C. A financial advisor tells you that the returns on the assets are independent of each other, and you are given the following data: Asset A B C E(Ri) 0.05 0.035 0.06 Variance 0.0015 0 0.008 You have not yet analyzed what your degree of risk aversion (A) is, but you know that your utility function behaves as follows: U[ E(Rp)] = E(Rp) - 0.5 * A * Variance. (See attached image for a better understanding) You are asked to:(a) Find the optimal portfolio with these 3 assets {called wA, wB and wC}.b) Calculate the expected return and risk of the optimal portfolio for the following degrees of risk aversion (A):(i) A = 5(ii) A = 10(iii) A = 16 Please ASAParrow_forwardIf NPV and IRR give you different recommendations, you should listen to IRR because it is better to get a high rate of return on each dollar invested.
