- The Ajax Company uses a portfolio approach to manage their research and development (RD) projects. Ajax wants to keep a mix of projects to balance the expected return and risk profiles of their RD activities. Consider a situation in which Ajax has six RD projects as characterized in the table. Each project is given an expected rate of return and a risk assessment, which is a value between 1 and 10, where 1 is the least risky and 10 is the most risky. Ajax would like to visualize their current RD projects to keep track of the overall risk and return of their RD portfolio. a. Create a bubble chart in which the expected rate of return is along the horizontal axis, the risk estimate is on the vertical axis, and the size of the bubbles represents the amount of capital invested. Format this chart for best presentation by adding axis labels and labeling each bubble with the project number. b. The efficient frontier of RD projects represents the set of projects that have the highest expected rate of return for a given level of risk. In other words, any project that has a smaller expected rate of return for an equivalent, or higher, risk estimate cannot be on the efficient frontier. From the bubble chart in part a, which projects appear to be located on the efficient frontier?Talal can pick one of two investment portfolios - A and B. Each requires an initial outlay of $100,000 and each has a most likely annualrate of return of 18%. Estimated the returns associated with each investment. Past estimates indicate that the probabilities of thepessimistic, most likely, and optimistic outcomes are 30%, 50%, and 20%, respectively. Note that the sum of these probabilities mustequal 100%; that is, they must be based on all the alternatives considered.Question:1.

Use your findings in part a to draw the security market line (required rate of return relative to nondiversifiable risk) Discuss the relative nondiversifiable risk of projects A through E.

- As a financial analyst, you are tasked with evaluating a capital-budgeting project. You were instructed to use the IRR method, and you need to determine an appropriate hurdle rate. The risk-free rate is 4%, and the expected market rate of return is 11%. Your company has a beta of 0.75, and the project that you are evaluating is considered to have risk equal to the average project that the company has accepted in the past. According to CAPM, the appropriate hurdle rate would be A. 15%. B. 9.25%. C. 4%. D. 11%. E. 0.75%A particular firm’s portfolio is composed of two assets, which we will call" A" and "B." Let X denote the annual rate of return from asset A, and let Y denote the annual rate of return from asset B. Suppose that E(X) = 0.15, E(Y) = 0.20, SD (X) = 0.05, SD (Y) = 0.06, and CORR (X, Y) = 0.30. Use a spreadsheet to perform the following analysis. (a) What is the expected return of investing 50% of the portfolio in asset A and 50% of the portfolio in asset B? What is the variance of this return? (b) Replace CORR (X, Y) = 0.30 by CORR (X, Y) = 0.60, 0, -0.30, and -0.60 and answer the questions in part (a). What is the impact of correlation on the expected returns and its variance? Explain why this is so. (c) Suppose that the fraction of the portfolio that is invested in asset B is f, and so the fraction of the portfolio that is invested in asset A is (1 – f).
