    A

    Expected return = 0.08+0.06 = 0.14 = 14%

    Expected return = 0.5*80000 + 0.5*200000 / P - 1

    40000+100000/P = 1.14

    P = 122,807

    B)

    R = 6+8 = 14%

    C)

    Expected return = 0.12+0.06 = 0.18 = 18%

    Expected return = (0.5*80000 + 0.5*200000 / P) - 1

    140000/P = 1.18

    P = 118,644
