Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] A pension fund manager is considering three mutual funds. The first is a stock fund, the second is a long- term government and corporate bond fund, and the third is a T-bill money market fund that yields a sure rate of 5.5%. The probability distributions of the risky funds are: Expected Return Stock fund (S) 17% Bond fund (B) 11% Standard Deviation 32% 23% The correlation between the fund returns is 0.30. Suppose now that your portfolio must yield an expected return of 14% and be efficient, that is, on the best feasible CAL. Required: a. What is the standard deviation of your portfolio? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Standard deviation % b-1. What is the proportion invested in the T-bill fund? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Proportion invested in the T- bill fund % b-2. What is the proportion invested in each of the two risky funds? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) Proportion Invested Stocks Bonds % % Hide Transcribed Text ?
