The following table provides the average annual rate of return for Portfolio X, the market portfolio (as measured by the Standard and Poor’s 500 Index), and U.S. Treasury bills (T-bills) during the past eight years.

a.   Calculate both the Treynor measure and the Sharpe measure for both Portfolio X and  the
S&P 500. Briefly explain whether Portfolio X underperformed, equaled, or outperformed the S&P 500 on a risk-adjusted basis using both the Treynor measure and the Sharpe measure.
b.   Based on the performance of Portfolio X relative to the S&P 500 calculated in Part a,
briefly explain the reason for the conflicting results when using the Treynor measure versus the Sharpe measure.
