54. An investor invests 40 percent of his wealth in a risky asset with an expected rate of return of 0.18 and a variance of 0.10 and 60 percent in a T-bill that pays 4 percent. His portfolio's expected return and standard deviation are __________ and __________, respectively. A. 0.114; 0.112 B. 0.087; 0.063 C. 0.096; 0.126 D. 0.087; 0.144 E. 0.106; 0.137
E(rP) = 0.4(18%) + 0.6(4%) = 9.6%; sP = 0.4(0.10)1/2 = 12.6%.
