There are two ways to calculate the expected return of a portfolio: either calculate the expected return using the value and dividend stream of the portfolio as a whole, or calculate the weighted average of the expected returns of the individual stocks that make up the portfolio. Which return is higher? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each?
Please explain the calculations of the two ways using an example and the reasons.

- A portfolio manager is trying to balance investments between bonds, stocks and cash. The return on stocks is 12 percent, 9 percent on bonds, and 3 percent on cash. The total portfolio is $1 billion, and he or she must keep 10 percent in cash in accordance with company policy. The fund's prospectus promises that stocks cannot exceed 75 percent of the portfolio, and the ratio of stocks to bonds must equal two. Formulate this investment decision as a linear programming problem, defining fully your decision variables and then giving the objective function and constraints. Solve the problem and show the optimal solution.
