A second version of the Markowitz portfolio model maximizes expected return subject to a constraint that the variance of the portfolio must be less than or equal to some specified amount. Consider the Hauck Financial Service data. We list the data again below along with the return of the S&P 500 Index. Hauck would like to create a portfolio using the funds listed, so that the resulting portfolio matches the return of the S&P 500 index as closely as possible.

(a)

Develop an optimization model that will give the fraction of the portfolio to invest in each of the funds so that the return of the resulting portfolio matches as closely as possible the return of the S&P 500 Index. Hint: Minimize the sum of the squared deviations between the portfolio's return and the S&P 500 Index return for each year in the data set.

Let:

FS= proportion of portfolio invested in the foreign stock mutual fund

IB= proportion of portfolio invested in the intermediate-term bond fund

LG= proportion of portfolio invested in the large-cap growth fund

LV= proportion of portfolio invested in the large-cap value fund

SG= proportion of portfolio invested in the small-cap growth fund

SV= proportion of portfolio invested in the small-cap value fund

D_s= the difference between the portfolio return and the S&P 500 return, years

If required, round your answers to two decimal places. For subtractive or negative numbers use a minus sign even if there is a + sign before the blank. (Example: -300)
