Answer:


R_p = 0.1754 = 17.54%

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected portfolio return is given as


R_p = W_1 * R_A + W_2 * R_B + W_3 * R_CWhere

w represent % of stocks


R_p Return % of portfolio


R_A, R_B, R_Care expected return value

from data given above we have

Total amount $55000

17% of 55000 = $9350

remaining amount = 55,000 - (34000 + 9350) = $ 11650


R_p = (((9350 * 1.14 + 34000 * 1.17 + 11650 * 1.22) - 55000))/(55000)


R_p = 0.1754 = 17.54%
