A portfolio that combines the risk-free asset and the market portfolio has an expected return of 9 percent and a standard deviation of 16 percent. The risk-free rate is 4.1 percent and the expected return on the market portfolio is 11 percent. Assume the capital asset pricing model holds. What expected rate of return would a security earn if it had a .38 correlation with the market portfolio and a standard deviation of 60 percent?

There are three assets, A, B and C, where A is the market portfolio and C is the risk-free asset. The return on the market has a mean of 12% and a standard deviation of 20%. The risk-free asset yields a return of 4%. Asset B is a risky asset whose return has a standard deviation of 40% and a market beta of 1. Assume that the CAPM holds. Compute the expected return of asset B and its covariances with...
