A portfolio generates an annual return of 23.5%, a beta of 0.5, and a standard deviation of 25.5%. The market index return is 19.0% and has a standard deviation of 23.5%. What is the M2 measure of the portfolio if the risk-free rate is 4%? |
2.72%
2.17%
2.97%
3.23%
The M2 measure of the portfolio if the risk-free rate is 4% is computed as shown below:
= 0.235 / 0.255
= 0.9216 Approximately
So the weight in risk free asset will be:
= 1 - 0.9216
= 0.0784
= 0.9216 x 0.235 + 0.0784 x 0.04
= 0.2197 Approximately
So the M2 measure will be:
= 21.97% - 19%
= 2.97%
So the correct answer is option of 2.97%
