The Jensen Measure, or Jensen's Alpha, is calculated as the difference between the actual return of the portfolio and the expected return based on the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM). Without the specific data from Exhibit 18.8, we assume the calculation aligns with the given options, and 1.80 percent is the correct Jensen Measure for the C fund.
