Round Stic M Part II: Problems (50%). You MUST show me all details of your work. Simply giving me one number is NOT acceptable and receives 0, whether or the number you give is correct. 1. Consider a risky portfolio. The end-of-year cash flow derived from the portfolio will be either $70,000 or $200,000 with equal probabilities of 5. The alterative risk-free investment in T-bills pays 6% per year. (15%) &. If you require a risk premium of 8%, how much will you be willing to pay for the portfolio?

Comparing your answer to questions a and b above, what do you conclude about the relationship between the required risk premium on a portfolio and the price at which the portfolio will sell? (5%) 2. You are considering investing $1,000 in a complete portfolio. The complete portfolio is composed of Treasury bills that pay 2% and a risky portfolio, P, constructed with two risky securities, X and Y. The optimal weights of X and Y in P are 40% and 60%, respectively. X has an expected rate of return of 0.10 and variance of 0.0081, and Y has an expected rate of return of 0.06 and a variance of 0.0036. The coefficient of correlation, rho, between X and Y is 0.45. If you decide to hold a complete portfolio that has a standard deviation of expected returns, i.e., the risk or sigma, of 10% (35%) 7604 oma (8) ty0% .6016 Pxy =,45 10 0081
