T

The investor"s expected total rate of return( increase in market value) after three years is closest to:
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】Portfolio Value : = sum of market values = 2000 + 3200 + 2800 = 8000
Portfolio Weights:
w A = 2000/8000 = 0.25, w B = 3200/8000 = 0.40, w C = 2800/8000 = 0.35
ER portfolio = ( ER stook ) ( W % of funds invested in each of the stocks ) = w A ER A + w B ER B + w C ER C = (0.25×17.0)+(0.40×8.0)+(0.35×13.0)=12.0%
Expected Return after three years = (1 + return) 3 -1=(1.12) 3 -1=1.405-1=0.405, or 40.5%.
