Suppose that the index model for stocks A and B is estimated from excess returns with the following results: RA = 1.0% + 0.45RM + eA RB = –1.0% + 1.00RM + eB σM = 16%; R-squareA = 0.28; R-squareB = 0.21 Assume you create a portfolio Q, with investment proportions of 0.50 in a risky portfolio P, 0.30 in the market index, and 0.20 in T-bill. Portfolio P is composed of 60% Stock A and 40% Stock B.
a. What is the standard deviation of portfolio Q? (Calculate using numbers in decimal form, not percentages. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
b. What is the beta of portfolio Q? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
c. What is the "firm-specific" risk of portfolio Q? (Calculate using numbers in decimal form, not percentages. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)
d. What is the covariance between the portfolio and the market index?

Dr. sperry, a biologist, is using excel to track growth rates of different populations of bacteria. she has a very complex formula in one cell. it begins with “round”. dr. sperry would like to see exactly how excel’s calculation reached the final rounded value that she sees in the cell. what could dr. sperry do to best understand how the calculation was made? try different formulas on her own until she reaches the value shown in excel click on the evaluate formula button in the formulas tab and then click “step in” select the cell and then look at the formula in the formula field of the ribbon remove “round” from the formula in order to see the actual value before rounding
