Question

You own a portfolio that has $2,100 invested in Stock A and $3,200 invested in Stock B. If the expected returns on these stocks are 13 percent and 17 percent, respectively, what is the expected return on the portfolio?

Answer 1

Stock A: $2,100, 13%
Stock B: $3,200 17%

Stock A-> 2100 x .13 = 273
Stock B -> 3200 x .17 = 544

Add
273 + 544 = 817

Expected return is $817
