Consider a single-index model economy. The index portfolio M has E(RM ) = 6%, σM = 18%.An individual asset i has an estimate of βi = 1.1 and σ2ei = 0.0225 using the single index modelRi = αi + βiRM + ei. The forecast of asset i’s return is E(ri) = 12%. rf = 4%. a) According to asset i’s return forecast, calculate αi. (b) Calculate the optimal weight of combining asset i and the index portfolio M . (c) Calculate the Sharpe ratio of the index portfolio M and the portfolio optimally combiningasset i and the index portfolio M .
