Answer:

B. 500

Explanation:

Portfolio return =  Weighted average return

Let the amount invested in portfolio is x and amount invested in risk free = 1000 - x

27.5% = 20%*x + 5%*(1000-x)

27.5% * 1,000 = 20%x + 50 – 5%x

0.275 * 1,000 = 15%x + 50

275 - 50 = 15%x

225 = 15%x

x = 225 / 0.15

x  =  $1,500

Hence, the amount of money borrowed = $1,500 - $1000

= $500
