A Question 14(15 points) Retbie quetion
A second version of the Markowitz portfolio model maximizes expected return subject to a constraint that the variance of the portfolio must be less than or equal to some specified amount.
Consider the Hauck Financial Portfolio Problem.

(a) Construct this version of the Markowitz model for a maximum variancy of 36.
Let:
FS = proportion of portfolio invested in the foreign stock mutual fund
IB = proportion of portfolio invested in the intermediate-term bond fund
LG = proportion of portfolio invested in the large-cap growth fund
IV = proportion of portfolio invested in the large'cap value fund
56= proportion of portfolio invested in the smatt-cap growth fund
5 V = proportion of portfollo invested in the small-cap value fund
R (R-bar)= the expected return of the portfolio
R= the return of the portfollo in years
If required, round your answers to two decimal places. For subtractive or negative numbers use a minus sign even if there is a sign before the blank (Examples -300). If the constant is "1" It must be entered in the box. If your anower is zero enter "0".
