Assume that you manage a risky portfolio with an expected rate of return of 19% and a standard deviation of 30%. The T-bill rate is 4%.
Suppose that your client prefers to invest in your fund a proportion y that maximizes the expected return on the complete portfolio subject to the constraint that the complete portfolio’s standard deviation will not exceed 17%.

Investment proportion y %
b. What is the expected rate of return on the complete portfolio? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Omit the "%" sign in your response.)
