Summary Introduction
Adequate information:
Expected return on portfolio [E(RP)] = 9% or 0.09
Standard deviation of the portfolio (σP) = 16% or 0.16
Risk-free rate (Rf) = 4.1% or 0.041
Market expected return [E(RM)] = 11% or 0.11
Security correlation with the market (ρL,M) = 0.38
Standard deviation of the security (σ1) = 60% or 0.60
To compute: Expected
Introduction: Expected return on security refers to the yield or return that is anticipated on the security in the future.

A portfolio that combines the risk-free asset and the market portfolio has an expected return of 6.4 percent and a standard deviation of 9.4 percent. The risk-free rate is 3.4 percent, and the expected return on the market portfolio is 11.4 percent. Assume the capital asset pricing model holds.
What expected rate of return would a security earn if it had a .39 correlation with the market portfolio and a standard deviation of 54.4 percent? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
b. A portfolio that combines the risk-free asset and the market portfolio has an expected return of
7 percent and a standard deviation of 10 percent. The risk-free rate is 4 percent, and the
