A mutual fund with beta of 0.8 has an expected rate of return of 14%. If the risk-free rate is 5% and you expect the rate of return on the market portfolio is 15%, what is the fund's alpha

Answer :

jepessoa

Answer:

1%

Explanation:

Portfolio's alpha = expected return of the portfolio - required return of the portfolio

Alpha = 14% - (5% + (0.8 x 10%)) = 14% - (5% + 8%) = 1%

A portfolio's alpha is the excess return yielded by the portfolio compared to the market's expected return for a similar investment.
