Expected rate of return with the market portfolio


Problem:

A portfolio that combines the risk-free asset and the market portfolio has an expected return of 22 percent and a standard deviation of 5 percent. The risk-free rate is 4.9 percent, and the expected return on the market portfolio is 19 percent. Assume the capital-asset-pricing model holds.

What expected rate of return would a security earn if it had a 0.6 correlation with the market portfolio and a standard deviation of 3 percent?
