Expected return and standard deviation. Use the following information to answer the questions:
a. What is the expected return of each asset?
b. What is the variance and the standard deviation of each asset?
c. What is the expected return of a portfolio with 8% in asset J, 46% in asset K, and 46% in asset L?
d. What is the portfolio's variance and standard deviation using the same asset weights from part (c)?
State of Economy | Probability of State | Return on Asset J in State | Return on Asset K in State | Return on Asset L in State |
Boom | 0.28 | 0.05 | 0.22 | 0.3 |
Growth | 0.39 | 0.05 | 0.12 | 0.23 |
Stagnant | 0.23 | 0.05 | 0.06 | 0.09 |
Recession | 0.1 | 0.05 | -0.07 | -0.2 |
Hi Friend,
please find attached the answer to your question.
Imp Note: In Part C, the portfolio is a mixture of stock J, K, L but you haven't attached the details of stock l. Therefore, I am solving the question by taking weights *% in K & 92% in K. But, if you find the returns of Stock L, Please follow the same method for the calculation of Portfolio Return, Variance, and Standard Deviation.
