Attached are the three pages for this problem. I need help on question 6 and 7 shown in the third page. I need help with how to build this optimization model on excel. Please include a step by step process for these two questions including fomulas used in excel and pictures. Thanks!!

CASE PROBLEM. PORTFOLIO OPTIMIZATION WITH TRANSACTION COSTS Hauck Financial Services has a number of passive, buy-and-hold clients. For those clients, Hauck offers an investment account whereby clients agree to put their money into a portfolio of mutual funds that is rebalanced once a year. When the rebalancing occurs. Hauck determine the mix of mutual funds in each investor's portfolio by solving an extension of the Markowite portfolio model that incorporates transaction costs. Investors are charged a small transaction cost for the annual rebalancing of their portfolio. For simplicity, assume the following: . At the beginning of the time period in this case one year, the portfolio is rebalanced by buying and selling Hauck mutual funds. The transaction costs associated with buying and selling mutual funds are paid at the beginning of the period when the portfolio is rebalanced, which, in effect, reduces the amount of money available to reinvest. No further transactions are made until the end of the time period, at which point the new value of the portfolio is observed. The transaction cost is a linear function of the dollar amount of mutual funds bought or sold. Jean Delgado is one of Hauck's buy-and-bold clients. We briefly describe the model as it is used by Hauck for rebalancing her portfolio. The mix of mutual funds that are being con- sidered for her portfolio are a foreign stock fund (FS), an intermediate-term bond fund (IB), a large-cap growth fund (LG), a large-cap value fund 2.), a small-cap growth fund (SG), and a small-cap value fund (SV). In the traditional Markowitz model, the variables are usually interpreted as the proportion of the portfolio invested in the asset represented by the variable. For example, FS is the proportion of the portfolio invested in the foreign stock fund. How- ever, it is equally correct to interpret FS as the dollar amount invested in the foreign stock fund. Then FS 25.000 implies that $25.000 is invested in the foreign stock fund. Based on these assumptions, the initial portfolio value must equal the amount of money spent on trans- action costs plus the amount invested in all the assets after rebalancing: that is Initial portfolio value - amount invested in all assets after rebalancing+transaction costs The extension of the Markowitz model that Hauck uses for rebalancing portfolios requires a balance constraint for each mutual fund. This balance constraint is Amount invested in fund/-initial holding of fund + amount of fundi purchased amount of fund i sold Using this balance constraint requires three additional variables for each fund: one for the amount invested prior to rebalancing, one for the amount sold, and one for the amount purchased. For instance, the balance constraint for the foreign stock fund is FSFS_START + FS_BUY - FS_SELI. Jean Delgado has S100,000 in ber account prior to the annual rebalancing, and she has specified a minimum acceptable return of 10%. Hauck plans to use the following model to rebalance Ms. Delgado's portfolio. The complete model with transaction costs is Min R.R R 0.1006F5 + 0.1764/B + 0.3241LG + 0.32367V + 0.33445G + 0.24565V - R 0.1312FS + 3.2500V + 0.1871LG + 0.20612V + 0.1940SG + 0.2532SV 0.1347FS + 0.0751/B + 0.3328LG + 0.12932V + 0.385086 - 0.0670SV - R 0.454275 -0.01318 + 0.41461G + 0.0706LV + 0.58685G + 0.05435V = R. -0.2193FS + 0.0736/B - 0.232616 - 0.0537LV - 0.090250+ 0.17315V - R.

With this model, the transaction costs are deducted from the cli- ent's account at the time of rebalancing and thus reduce the amount of money invested. The solution for Ms. Delgado's rebalancing problem is shown as part of the Managerial Report Managerial Report Assume that you are a financial analytics specialist newly hired by Hauck Financial Services. One of your first tasks is to review the portfolio rebalancing model in order to resolve a dispute with Jean Delgado. Ms. Delgado has had one of the Hauck passively managed portfolios for the past five years and has complained that she is not getting the rate of return of 10% that she specified. After reviewing her annual statements for the past five years, she feels that she is actually getting less than 10% on average. 1. According to the following Model Solution, 1B_BUY = $41.268.51. How much in transaction costs did Ms Delgado pay for purchasing additional shares of the inter mediate-term bond fund? 2. Based on the Model Solution, what is the total transaction cost associated with rebalancing Ms. Delgado's portfolio? 3. After paying transactions couts, how much did Ms. Delgado have invested in mutual funds after her portfolio was rebalanced? 4. According to the Model Solution, IB - $51,268.51. How much can Ms. Delgado expect to have in the intermediate-term bond fund at the end of the year? 5. According to the Model Solution, the expected return of the portfolio is $10.000 What is the expected dollar amount in Ms. Delgado's portfolio at the end of the year?
