Problem 7-03 You are an analyst for a large public pension fund and you have been assigned the task of evaluating two different external portfolio managers (Y and Z). You consider the following historical average return, standard deviation, and CAPM beta estimates for these two managers over the past five years: Portfolio Actual Avg. Standard Beta Return Deviation Manager Y 13.00% 14.40% 1.20 Manager Z 6.40% 8.40% 0.80 Additionally, your estimate for the risk premium for the market portfolio is 4.00 percent and the risk-free rate is currently 3.50 percent. a. For both Manager Y and Manager Z, calculate the expected return using the CAPM. Round your answers to two decimal places. Manager Y: % Manager Z: % b. Calculate each fund manager's average "alpha" (i.e., actual return minus expected return) over the five-year holding period. Round your answers to two decimal places. Manager Y: % Manager Z: % Choose the correct SML graph. The correct graph is -Select- ^ . Security market Line A. ERS 0127 017 ocet Roost 002 Security market Line B.
