Over the long-run LR Corp has a 10% historical return and the long-run t-bill rate is 3% over the same amount of time. If the current t-bill rate is 1%, what is the current expected return on LR Corp?
Current expected return = Historic long run return + Difference between Long run T bill rate and Current T bill rate.
= 10 % + (3 % - 1 %)
= 10 % + 2 %
= 12 %.
Conclusion :- Current expected return = 12 %.
Over the long-run LR Corp has a 10% historical return and the long-run t-bill rate is...
For Problems 10 through 12: Consider historical data showing that the average annual rate of return on the S&P 500 portfolio over the past 90 years has averaged roughly 8% more than the Treasury bill return and that the S&P 500 standard deviation has been about 20% per year. Assume these values are representative of investors' expectations for future performance and that the current T-bill rate is 5% 10. Calculate the expected return and variance of portfolios invested in T-bills...

Suppose that the current 1-year rate (1-year spot
rate) and expected 1-year T-bill rates over the following three
years (i.e., years 2, 3, and 4, respectively) are as follows:
1R1 = 3.18%,
E(2r1) = 4.60%,
E(3r1) = 5.10%,
E(4r1) = 6.60%
Using the unbiased expectations theory, calculate the current

Arisky fund has an expected return of 9% and standard deviation of 15%. The T-Bill rate is 3%. An investor allocates 125% of her retirement portfolio to the risky fund and -25% to T-Bills (recall the negative allocation to T-Bills indicates borrowing at risk free rate). What is the investor's risk aversion coefficient (A)? 0.47 2.13 -2.13 1.40
