Blair & Rosen, Inc. (B&R) is a brokerage firm that specializes in investment portfolios designed to meet the specific risk tolerances of its clients. A client who contacted B&R this past week has a maximum of $50,000 to invest. B&R's investment advisor decides to recommend a portfolio consisting of two investment funds: an Internet fund and a Blue Chip fund. The Internet fund has a projected annual return of 14%, and the Blue Chip fund has a projected annual return of 7%. The investment advisor requires that at most $35,000 of the client's funds should be invested in the Internet fund. B&R's services include a risk rating for each investment alternative. The Internet fund, which is the more risky of the two investments, has a risk rating of 5, and the Blue Chip fund has a risk rating of 3. For a portfolio of $50,000, the investment in the Internet fund should be $35,000 and the investment in the Blue Chip fund should be $15,000. The risk rating for this portfolio would be 10. Finally, B&R developed a questionnaire to measure each client's risk tolerance. Based on the responses, each client is classified as a conservative, moderate, or aggressive investor. Suppose that the questionnaire results classified the current client as a moderate investor. B&R recommends that a client who is a moderate investor limit his or her portfolio to a maximum risk rating of 240.

Ike, an investor, is considering opening a margin account and investing $2,000 in Mike's mutual fund. The terms of the account require that he pay back the amount he borrowed on the margin by the end of the year with 10 percent interest. Ike is trying to decide what level of margin he wants. For example, if he chooses an account at the level of 50 percent, the bank will let him borrow and invest an additional $1,000, or 50 percent of his original $2,000. Complete the table below by filling in Ike's account value at the end of the year, given varying levels of the margin account and mutual fund performance. Assume that Mike's mutual fund will return 40 percent per year in a stellar market and 8 percent per year in a fair market, and that in a terrible market, it will lose 30 percent.
