Finding the Efficient Set Using the Critical Line Technique and EXCEL
Mangiero, George A.; Manley, John F.
College Teaching Methods & Styles Journal, v2 n2 p41-54 2006
This paper extends the discussion of the critical line approach using three risky stocks as described in Haugen's Modern Investment Theory, 4th edition. A dynamic presentation of the concepts involved in finding the efficient set, using two EXCEL spreadsheets and an HP-12C hand-held calculator, is provided. This dynamic presentation will enable students to understand the composition of the efficient set in a much clearer and effective manner. (Contains 2 footnotes and 15 figures.)
