1.    UPS, a delivery services company, has a beta of 1.4, and Wal-Mart has a beta of 0.8. The risk-free rate of interest is 4% and the market risk premium (rM-rRF)is 6%. What is the expected return on a portfolio with 40% of its money in UPS and the balance in Wal-Mart?  

Expert Solution

Rate of Return on UPS = 4 + 1.4* (6)

= 12.4%

 

Rate of Return on Walmart = 4 + 0.8* (6)

= 8.8%

 

Portfolio Return = 60%*8.8 + 40%*12.4

= 10.24%
