Problem 6-10 Consider historical data showing that the average annual rate of return on the S&P 500 portfolio over the past 85 years has averaged roughly 8% more than the Treasury bill return and that the S&P 500 standard deviation has been about 23% per year. Assume these values are representative of investors' expectations for future performance and that the current T-bill rate is 6%.

Calculate the expected return and variance of portfolios invested in T-bills and the S&P 500 index with weights as shown below. (Enter your answers as decimals rounded to 4 places. Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required.)
