Answer:
Expected return of the portfolio = 8.57%
Explanation:
The expected return of the portfolio is the weighted average return of all assets in that portfolio, which is calculated as below:
The expected return of the portfolio = (Weight of U.S. government T-bills x Return of U.S. government T-bills) + (Weight of large-company stocks x Return of large-company stocks) + (Weight of small-company stocks x Return of small-company stocks)
= 47% x 4.08% + 38% x 11.38% + 15% x 15.53% = 8.57%
Answer:
ER = 8.57%
Explanation:
The total expected return can be calculated by computing return with weights of the portfolio.
Expected Return
= W1*R1 + W2*R2 +W3*R3
where W1 is the weight of 1 asset and subsequent assets as W2 and W3.
R1 = return of assets and subsequent assets as R2 and R3,
ER = 0.47(0.0408) + 0.38(0.1138) + 0.15(0.1553)
ER = 8.57%
Hope that helps.
