A pension fund manager is considering three mutual funds. The first is a stock fund, the second is a long-term government and corporate bond fund, and the third is a T-bill money market fund that yields a sure rate of 5.5%. The probability distributions of the risky funds are:

	Expected Return	Standard Deviation
Stock fund (S)	16%	45%
Bond fund (B)	7%	39%

The correlation between the fund returns is .0385.

What is the expected return and standard deviation for the minimum-variance portfolio of the two risky funds?
