Poul Incorporated's actively managed mutual fund generated a rate of return of 0.08 last year. The U.S. T-Bill rate is 0.03, and Poul's standard deviation is 0.16. What is the Poul fund's Sharp Ratio?
Sharpe ratio=(Expected portfolio return - Risk free
rate)/(Standard deviation)
Here, the t-bill is considered as risk free asset
=(0.08-0.03)/(0.16)
=0.3125

Problem 2 Risk-free rate is 4%. Expected return on actively managed fund P is 16%, expected return on the market index is 12%. Standard deviation of the fund is 20%, and standard deviation of the index is 17%. Beta of the fund is 0.73. Calculate Sharpe ratio of the market index and of fund P. Does the fund beat the market? Calculate Treynor measure of the market index and of fund P. Does the fund beat the market? Calculate the...
A pension fund manager is considering three mutual funds. The first is a stock fund, the second is a long-term government and corporate bond fund, and the third is T-bill money market fund that yields a rate of 4.1%. The probability distribution of the risky funds is as follows: Expected Return Standard Deviation Stock fund 11% 33% (S) Bond fund (B) 8 25 The correlation between the fund returns is 0.16 Solve numerically for the proportions of each asset and...

Question 15 A mutual fund has earned an annual average return of 15% over the last 5 years. During that time, the average risk-free rate was 2% and the average market return was 12% per year. The correlation coefficient between the mutual fund’s and market’s returns was 0.7. The standard deviation of returns was 45% for the mutual fund and 22% for the market. What was the fund’s CAPM alpha? a) -2.9% b) -1.3% c) 0.3% d) 1.9% e) 3.5%
