Answer:
Risk free asset - X = 8-0/8+0 = 1
Market portfolio - X = 18-22/18+22 = -1/10
Portfolio B - X = 15-12/15+12 = 1/9
The reward to variability ratio for Portfolio B is greater than that of market and hence not possible according to CAPM (1/9 > abs(-1/10)
6. Assume that the CAPM holds. Is the following scenario possible? Risk Free Asset Market Portfolio...
4. Consider the following information about the market portfolio, the risk-free asset and funds A and B. Return Standard Deviation Beta 5% 0% Risk-free asset 0 Market portfolio Fund A 15% 20% 1 40% 12% 0 30% Fund B 18% 1.5 Analyze the performance of fund A relative to fund B in the context of the CAPM.
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?
Question 4 [3 points) Suppose that the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) holds. The market portfolio has an expected return of 9% and a standard deviation of 16%. Stock AAA has an expected return of 12%, a beta of 1.4, and a standard deviation of 28%. a. What is the risk-free rate? [1 point] b. What is the alpha of stock AAA? [1 point) c. What proportion of the total risk of stock AAA is idiosyncratic? [1 point]
Assume a setting in which the risk-free rate is 4% and the CAPM holds. The market portfolio has a mean return of 16% and a return standard deviation of 30%. The data on two stocks that exist in this market are as follows. Stock X has a mean return of 10% and a standard deviation of 40%. Stock Y has a mean return of 20% and a standard deviation of 50%. The pair of stocks have a return correlation of...
Assume the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) holds. The expected annual return of stock A is 6%. The annual risk-free rate was 5% and the expected annual return of the market was 7%. If the standard deviation of annual return of stock A was 15% and the standard deviation of annual return of the market was 10%, what is the correlation between annual returns of stock A and the market? A. 0.5 B. 0.33 C. 0.66 D. −0.66 E. 1
If the simple CAPM is valid, is the situation shown below possible? Beta Portfolio Risk-free Market Expected Return 6% 18% 14% 1.2 Possible Not possible
Assume that CAPM holds, i.e. ri = ro+ B;(PM-ro) where Bi portfolio of stocks X, Y, and the risk-free asset. The beta of the portfolio is Bp a beta of 1.5 and Y has a beta of 2.0. Expected return of Y is 10% more than the expected return of X. Risk-free rate is 5%. What is the expected return of this portfolio? iM Your goal is to create a 0.7. X has
Asset A has a CAPM beta of 1.5. The covariance between asset A and asset B is 0.13. If the risk-free rate is 0.05, the expected market risk premium is 0.07, and the market risk premium has a standard deviation of 25%, then what is asset B's expected return under the CAPM? Asset A has a CAPM beta of 1.5. The covariance between asset A and asset B is 0.13. If the risk-free rate is 0.05, the expected market risk...
Consider the following information: Portfolio Expected Return Standard Deviation Risk-free 6 % 0 % Market 10.8 24 A 8.8 13 a. Calculate the Sharpe ratios for the market portfolio and portfolio A. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) b. If the simple CAPM is valid, is the above situation possible? Yes No
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...
