a T-bill money market fund that yields a sure rate of 4.6%. The probability distributions of the risky funds are: Expected Return Standard Deviation Stock fund (S)166%Bond fund (B)70%The correlation between the fund returns is 0.0800. What is the Sharpe ratio of the best feasible CAL

Respuesta :

Answer:

The Sharpe ratio of the best feasible CAL is 0.3167.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete as some data are omitted. The complete qustion is therefore provided before answering the question. See attached pdf file for the complete question.

Risk-free rate = Sure rate of the T-bill money market fund = 4.6%, or 0.046

Sharpe ratio of a fund = (Expected return - Risk-free rate) / Standard Deviation …………. (1)

Using equation (1), we have:

Sharpe ratio of Stock fund = (16% - 4.6%) / 36% = 0.3167

Sharpe ratio of Bond fund = (7% - 4.6%) / 30% = 0.08

Since Sharpe Ratio of Stock Fund (S) is higher than Sharpe Ratio of Bond Fund (B), this implies that the best option is to invest in Stock Fund (S).

Therefore, the Sharpe ratio of the best feasible CAL is 0.3167.
