Hi there. I need helps answering this question. Thank you.

Suppose that the index model for stocks A and B is estimated from excess returns with the following results:

R_A = 3.5% + 0.65R_M + e_A

R_B = 1.6% + 0.8R_M + e_B

_M = 21%; R-square_A = 0.22; R-square_B = 0.14

Assume you create portfolio P with investment proportions of 0.60 in A and 0.40 in B.

1.	What is the standard deviation of the portfolio? (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Omit the "%" sign in your response.)

Standard deviation

%

2.	What is the beta of your portfolio? (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

3.	What is the firm-specific variance of your portfolio? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)

4.	What is the covariance between the portfolio and the market index? (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
