1. Correct Answer is A: 11.41%
Expected Return of Portfolio = R1W1 +R2W2
= 15* 3200/5800 + 7 *2600/ 5800
= 11.41%
2. Correct answer is C : 8.30%
Expected Return = Rf + (Rm -Rf)Beta
= 4.1 + (10.1 - 4.1)0.7
=8.3%
3. Correct answer is B : 21%
Expected Return = Rf + (Rm -Rf)Beta
= 3 + (12 - 3)2
=21%
4. Correct answer is A : 18.20%
Expected Return = Rf + (Rm -Rf)Beta
= 2 + 9*1.80
=18.2%
