1. Suppose you have a portfolio where you have invested $12,790 in Stock A and Stock B. Stock A has an expected return of 15.6% and Stock B has an expected return of 6.2%. If your goal is to create a portfolio with an expected return of 12.3%, what is your dollar investment in Stock B??
2. You have invested 20.4% in Stock A, 43.7% in Stock B, and the remainder in the risk free asset. You want a portfolio to be as risky as the market (i.e. you want the beta of your portfolio to equal 1). If Stock A has beta of 1.1, what is the beta of Stock B?
