Answer:

Portfolio weight A = 0.6872

Portfolio weight B = 0.3128

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for What are the portfolio weights

First step is to calculate the Top Value

Top Value = 145(45) + 110(27)

Top Value = 9495

Calculation for Portfolio weight A

Portfolio weight A = 145(45)/9495

Portfolio weight A = 0.6872

Calculation for Portfolio weight B

Portfolio weight B = 110(27)/9495

Portfolio weight B = 0.3128

Therefore the portfolio weights are :

Portfolio weight A = 0.6872

Portfolio weight B = 0.3128
