Answer:

10.8%

Explanation:

Given that,

Investment in Stock A = $2,000

Investment in Stock B = $3,000

Expected return on Stock A = 9%

Expected return on Stock B = 12%

Expected return on the portfolio:

= [(Investment in Stock A × Expected return) + (Investment in Stock B × Expected return)] ÷ Total investment in Stock A and B

= [($2,000 × 9%) + ($3,000 × 12%)] ÷ ($2,000 + $3,000)

= ($180 + $360) ÷ $5,000

= $540 ÷ $5,000

= 0.108 or 10.8%
