a]
Expected return of two-asset portfolio Rp = w1R1 + w2R2,
where Rp = expected return
w1 = weight of Asset 1
R1 = expected return of Asset 1
w2 = weight of Asset 2
R2 = expected return of Asset 2
b]
Average portfolio return over 6 year period is calculated using AVERAGE function in Excel
Average portfolio return over 6 year period is 10.27%
c]
Standard deviation of portfolio returns is calculated using STDEV.S function in Excel
Standard deviation of portfolio returns is 3.620%
d]
The correlation between Asset 1 and Asset 2 is calculated using CORREL function in Excel
The correlation between Asset 1 and Asset 2 is -1.00
The assets are negatively correlated
e]
Negative correlation between assets in a portfolio reduces the overall risk of the portfolio, as the factors affecting the returns of one asset do not affect the other asset. Hence, the returns of the assets do not move together.
The answer is (A) - by combining negatively correlated assets, the overall portfolio risk is reduced.
