a)      If your goal is to create a portfolio of 12%, how much money you should invest in Stock X and in Stock Y?                                                                                                       

b)      If risk free rate is 5% then calculate the Equity Risk Premium (ERP) for Stock X and Stock Y.                                                                                                             

c)      If return on market portfolio is 8 percent, then calculate the Market Risk Premium for Stock X and Stock Y.                                                                                                                               

d)      Calculate the beta of Stock X and Stock Y.
