    c. 22.2%, 33.3%

    Explanation:

    Portfolio weight of each investment equals division of total value of each investment to total value of portfolio.

    Portfolio weight of YHOO = (300*$20) / (300*$20 + 300 * $30 + 80*150) = 0.222 = 22% Portfolio weight of GM = (300*$30) / (300*$20 + 300 * $30 + 80*150) = 0.333 = 33%
