Let's break down **part (a)** into 2 steps, showing explanations and calculations for each:
---
### **Step 1: Calculate the Adjusted Returns (μi - rf) for Each Asset**
Given risk-free rates \( r_f \) of 2.5%, 12.5%, and 20% (expressed as decimals: 0.025, 0.125, 0.20), calculate the excess return for each asset:
| Asset | μi | μi - rf (rf=0.025) | μi - rf (rf=0.125) | μi - rf (rf=0.20) |
|-------|------|---------------------|---------------------|-------------------|
| A | 0.18 | 0.155 | 0.055 | -0.02 |
| B | 0.15 | 0.125 | 0.025 | -0.05 |
| C | 0.12 | 0.095 | -0.005 | -0.08 |
| D | 0.20 | 0.175 | 0.075 | 0.00 |
**Explanation:**
Subtract the given \( r_f \) from each asset's expected return \( \mu_i \) to get the risk premium (μi - rf). This is needed for the tangency portfolio formula.
---
### **Step 2: Set Up the Tangency Portfolio Formula and Prepare for Allocation Calculation**
The tangency portfolio weights (from the formula in the question) are:
\[
w_{T,i}^* = \frac{\sum_j^{-1}(\mu_j - r_f)}{\mathbf{1}'\Sigma^{-1}(\mu - r_f)}
\]
Where:
- \( \Sigma \) is the covariance matrix (given as R in the question).
- \( \mu \) is the vector of expected returns.
- \( r_f \) is the risk-free rate.
- \( \mathbf{1} \) is a vector of ones.
**Explanation:**
Here, you set up the formula that will be used to calculate the tangency weights for each asset for each value of \( r_f \). You'll need to:
- Form the vector \( (\mu - r_f) \) for each \( r_f \).
- Use the covariance matrix R to find \( R^{-1} \).
- Multiply as per the formula to get the portfolio weights.
---
## **Final Answer for Step 1 & 2:**
- **Step 1:** Calculated the excess returns (\( \mu_i - r_f \)) for each asset at different risk-free rates.
- **Step 2:** Set up the tangency portfolio formula using these excess returns and the given covariance matrix.
**Next Steps:**
To get the actual allocations (\( w_{T,i}^* \)), you would numerically calculate as per the formula for each \( r_f \), inverting the covariance matrix and multiplying by the excess return vector, then normalizing so weights sum to 1.
**If you want the actual allocations and standard deviations in a table, let me know!**
