Consider a portfolio consisting of the following two risky assets. Asset i Hi, Return on Asset i 7% 7% 0, Risk in Asset i 18% 14% The coefficient of correlation between the returns is p = -100%. (a) State the expected return and associated risk (as measured by the standard deviation) in terms of w if w is the weight allocation of Asset 1 in the portfolio. Hry (w) = 0.07 Or, (w) = sqrt(0.0632w^2-0.C (b) Suppose that the portfolio...

Exercise 2. Suppose that there is one risk free asset with return rf and one risky asset with normally distributed returns, r ~ N(u,02). Show that the CARA utility u(r) = -e-Ar gives the same optimal allocation of wealth to the risky asset as the mean-variance utility function we used in class. That is, show that E[r] – rf OCARA = AO2 Hint: Use the fact that if a random variable x is distributed normally with mean Mx and variance...

Suppose that you have a risky asset that provides you with an expected return of 12% per year with 20% volatility (standard deviation). Consider a risk-free asset that provides you with a 3% risk-free return. a. If you have $100,000 and invest 80% into the risky asset and 20% into the 6. b. How much will your portfolio be worth if the realized return on the risky c. If you cannot borrow money, what is the maximum possible expected return...

Suppose there are three assets: A, B, and C. Asset A’s expected return and standard deviation are 1 percent and 1 percent. Asset B has the same expected return and standard deviation as Asset A. However, the correlation coefficient of Assets A and B is −0
Suppose there are three assets: A, B, and C. Asset A’s expected return and
standard deviation are 1 percent and 1 percent. Asset B has the same expected
return and standard deviation as Asset A. However, the correlation coefficient of
Assets A and B is −0.25. Asset C’s return is independent of the other two assets.
The expected return and standard deviation of Asset C are 0.5 percent and 1
percent.
(a) Find a portfolio of the three assets that...
