Suppose the portfolio of a large institutional investor ‘Ace’ has a beta of 1.5, and the standard deviation of the rate of return on its portfolio is 15 percent. The portfolio of another institutional investor ‘Yankee’ has a beta of 0.7. The market portfolio may be expressed as a portfolio comprising the portfolios of Ace and Yankee, and its Sharpe ratio is 0.8 Suppose there is a firm called ‘Rusty Steel’, whose stock’s beta is 2 and it can borrow...
Suppose the portfolio of a large institutional investor ‘Animal’ has a beta of 1.25, and the standard deviation of the rate of return on its portfolio is 15 percent and its expected rate of return is 15 percent. The portfolio of another institutional investor ‘Beast’ has a beta of 0.75. The market portfolio may be expressed as a portfolio comprising the portfolios of Animal and Beast.

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?
Suppose a large institutional investor Alliance’s portfolio has a beta of 0.5. Another institutional investor Best’s portfolio has an expected return of 10 percent and a standard deviation of 15 percent. Both portfolios have the same Sharpe ratio of 0.6, and the market portfolio can be described as a portfolio comprising these two with equal weights. Suppose there is a firm called Cunning corporation, whose stock’s beta is 2 and it can borrow at the risk free rate. Cunning’s equity...
