Answer:

-0.4242

Explanation:

Ra = 0.21 or 21%

Rf = 0.045 or 4.5%

Rp = 0.28 or 28%

Expected return on a portfolio is weighted average return of its assets :

Rp = Rf*(1-w) + Ra*w

28 = 4.5*(1-w) + 21*w

28 = 4.5 - 4.5w + 21w

28 - 4.5 = 21w - 4.5w

21w - 4.5w = 28 - 4.5

16.5w = 23.5

w = 23.5/16.5

w = 1.4242

Hence, weight of risky asset = 1.4242

So, Weight of risk free asset = 1 - 1.4242

Weight of risk free asset = -0.4242
