A pension fund manager is considering three mutual funds. The
first is a stock fund, the second is a long-term government and
corporate bond fund, and the third is a T-bill money market fund
that yields a rate of 6%. The probability distribution of the risky
funds is as follows:
Expected Return |
Standard Deviation |
|||||
Stock fund (S) | 17 | % | 38 | % | ||
Bond fund (B) | 12 | 17 | ||||
The correlation between the fund returns is 0.13.
You require that your portfolio yield an expected return of 11%,
and that it be efficient, on the best feasible CAL.
a. What is the standard deviation of your
portfolio? (Round your intermediate calculations to 4
decimal places. Round your answer to 2 decimal
places.)

b. What is the proportion invested in the T-bill
fund and each of the two risky funds? (Round your
intermediate calculations to 4 decimal places. Round your answers
to 2 decimal places.)
