Answer: The expected return on the portfolio is 9.5 percentage

Explanation:

Stock A

30% of the money is invested in Stock A that has an expected return of 13%

Stock B

70% of the money is invested in Stock B that has an expected return of 8%

In order to calculate the total expected return on the portfolio which consists of Stock A and Stock B, we should multiply the amount of money invested in each stock with its expected reutns. Then we sum up the values.

Expected Return of the Portfolio = (30%) (13%) + (70%) (8%) = 9.5%
