Question 21 (1)
Given the following information calculate the standard deviation of returns of a portfolio that combines government bonds with the market portfolio.
Rm = .11
Rf = .05
Standard Deviation of market return = 0.11
Enter your answer as a decimal accurate to three decimal places.
Proportion invested in Rm = 0.5
Question 22 (1)
With respect to the graph provided above (PBEHP 12th Ed, page 184) which of the following statements is incorrect.
A risk-averse investor would prefer combinations on the hard red line represented by ?1,2 = -1.0, Risk-averse investors would never hold combinations of the two securities represented by pointson the on the dotted lines
The degree of risk reduction increases as the correlation between returns on the two securities Question 23 (1) The portfolios represented by the points on the line through Rf and M dominate the portfolios represented by the line Rf through T The lowest risk portfolio is a portfolio of 100% in government bonds, at point Rf For investors the levered (borrowing) portfolios from M up to N provide higher returns The lines U1, U2, and U3 represent the utility function of three different investors, U1
represents a risk averse investor, U2 represents a risk neutral investor and U3 is a risk seeker
To reach a point on the line Rf through to N, that is above M the weight or proportion ofRf must be negative
