Actually i did'nt get the question & how to proceed with as beta is given 2 times therein.

Could you pls help me out?

dont know question is confusing or answers make me confused....there cant be two beta..i thing one column is of beta and other is of smthngelse

ok let me explain it..information is given for six mutual fund , market and t.bills but details for classic mutual fund is not summarised like other mutual fund have in table i.e. alpha, beta , gama, rho,theta.information given in first table is need to be summarised like data in second table i.e. calculate Rate, S.D., beta and other required information.

T.bills are given to calculate Risk free rate of return and market return is given for calculation of market return and s.d. etc.

finally cracked it......try it on ur own after understanding the question ..if still cant solve then let me know, i will attach solution in excel file

Find S.D. of Classic, variance of market & co-variance of Classic with market. Use variance of market & co-variance of Classic with market to find beta of Classic. Use average rate of Classic & average risk-free rate to find ratios. Data of other mutual funds is irrelevant.

Beta = Covariance divided by variance of market

Pl confirm, whether beta of market is always equal to 1 na? How to calculate jensen ratio? I think 2 beta is given for confusion purpose only as all other data is irrelevant.

Yes...beta of market is 1. Jenson ratio is expected return - actual return So by equation u will get expected return - Rf+( Rm-Rf)beta...Rm is the rate which is avg of market rates And actual return will be that return which u calculated by taking avg of return of classic mutual fund..
