(ii) Based on the APT, if there are only two factors that influence returns, then the expected returns on diversified portfolios should satisfy the equation E[Rp] = Ao+bp₂ λ₁ + bp₂ λ₂ Find the values of the factor prices. (iii) Use the expected portfolio return equation to find the expected return for portfolio D. Is this answer the same as in (i)? bp₁ (iv) Suppose that you can construct another portfolio, E, which has 0.6 and bp₂ = 0.6. This portfolio has an expected return of 15%.
