Q1 : We can see from the second constraints section that the final value of return is 14000 and budget is 20000 and both are binding with no slack. Hence average return = 14000/20000 = 7%
Q2 : We can see from the second constraints section that the shadow price for Returns is 2.1. This means that for every $1 increase in required return the risk (objective function) would increase by 2.1. Thus if an additional $1000 income is required, the total risk would increase (by an amount equal to 1000*2.1 = 2100)
Q3 : We can see from the second constraints section that the shadow price for Budget is -0.002. This means that for every $1 increase in budget the risk (objective function) would decrease by -0.002. Thus if an additional $1000 budget is available to invest, the total risk would decrease (by an amount equal to 1000*0.002 = 2)
Q4 : The shadow price for Budget is -0.002 and the current risk is 29000. Hence if additional 1000 is available to invest then the total risk is 29000-1000*0.002 = 29000-2 = 28998
