    0.681 and better

    Explanation:

    The formula to compute the Sharpe measure is shown below:

    Sharpe ratio = (Portfolio return - Risk-free rate) : (Standard deviation of portfolio return)

    = (17.5% - 3.2%) : (21%)

    = 0.681

    Simply we deduct the risk free return from the portfolio return and divide it by the standard deviation of portfolio return

    And the market Sharpe measure would be 0.31 and ours Sharpe measure would be 0.681 which reflect the better
