A pension fund manager is considering three mutual funds. The first is a stock fund, the second is a long-term government and corporate bond fund, and the third is a T-bill money market fund that yields a sure rate of 5.5%. The probability distributions of the risky funds are:
Suppose now that your portfolio must yield an expected return of 12% and be efficient, that is, on the best feasible CAL.

Respuesta :

This problem is about pension fund management. It is to be noted that the best Feasible Capital Allocation Line (CAL) is: 0.3162.

What is Capital Allocation Line (CAL)?

A graph's capital allocation line depicts all conceivable combinations of risky and risk-free assets, allowing investors to estimate future returns depending on risk.

What is the calculation for the above solution?

It is to be noted that the optimal risky portfolio's stock percentage is determined by:

Weight of Stock = ((Return on Stock - Risk Free Rate) * Variance of bond) - ((Return on Bond - Risk Free Rate) * Co-Variance of bond & Stock)/ ((Return on Stock - Risk Free Rate) * Variance of bond + (Return on Bond - Risk Free Rate) * Variance of Stock - ((Return on Bond - Risk Free Rate + Return on Stock - Risk Free Rate + ) * Co-Variance of bond & Stock)

→ The weight of stock

= ((15% - 5.5%) * 529) - ((9% - 5.5%) * 110.40)/ ((15% - 5.5%) * 529) + (9% - 5.5%) * 1,024 - ((15% - 5.5% + 9% - 5.5%) * 110.40)

= [(50.255) * (3.864) /(50.255) + (46.08) - (14.352)]

Weight of Stock = 0.646628

Weight of  Bonds = 1 - 0.646628

Weight of  Bonds= 0.353372

Expected return of portfolio = 0.646628 * 15% + 0.353372 * 9%

= 12.88%

Standard Deviation of Portfolio (SDP)= (0.6466282² * 1,024 + 0.3533722² * 529 + 2 * 0.646628* 0.353372* 110.40)⁰·⁵

SDP = (544.67)⁰·⁵

SDP = 23.34%

Hence,

Best feasible CAL = (12.88% - 5.5%)/ 23.34%

Best feasible CAL = 0.3162
