You can answer Question 3 Only (I give you the answer for question2, cause you need it to answer question 3)

Please answer Question3 in detail

The answer for Question2 is:

lFor stock C:

E(r)=0.21, A=4, =0.16

The expected utility= E(r)-0.5A=0.21-0.5*4*=0.21-0.0512=0.1588

lFor stock D:

E(r)=0.25, A=4, =0.21

The expected utility= E(r)-0.5A=0.25-0.5*4*=0.25-0.0882=0.1618

Therefore, the investor will choose stock D, because stock D has more expected utility.

Consider the following four stocks: Stock Expected Return (E[r]) Standard Deviation A 0.12 0.30 B 0.15 0.50 C 0.21 0.16 D 0.25 0.21 1) According to the mean-variance dominance principle, which stock a rational and risk-averse investor will choose from stocks A, B and C? How does this choice compare with stock D? 2) An investor's risk preferences are characterized by the following utility function: U=E(r)-0.5A62 Assume that for this investor: A=4. Based on this utility function, should the investor select stock C or stock D? 3) Besides the four risky assets, now the investor can also invest in a newly issued T-bill with annual rate of return at 5%. With risk-aversion level at A=4, the investor is considering to hold a portfolio of the stock (the stock that you picked from part 2) and the risk-free assets, instead of just holding the stock alone. Is this a wise decision for the investor? Why or why not. If so, how will the investor allocate between the stock and risk-free assets
