a. If your risk-aversion coefficient is A = 5.4 and you believe that the entire 19272018 period is representative of future expected performance, what fraction of your portfolio should be allocated to T-bills and what fraction to equity? Assume your utility function is U= E(r) 0.5 A². (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
