Question 2 Assume that in a particular economy, there are only two assets: Asset One has an expected return of 12% and variance of returns 30%; Asset Two has an expected return of 19% and variance of returns 50%. The covariance of returns between the two assets is 0.15. Assume that the market portfolio consists of 40% of Asset One and 60% of Asset Two. What is the beta for Asset Two? 0.7 %3D A B 0.9 1.1 1.2 1.4 E Question 3 A two-asset portfolio with an expected return of 13% consists of assets with the following parameters. Expected return Standard deviation 12% Asset 25% 2 15% 30% The correlation coefficient between the two assets is 0.25.
