Given the following information, use the CAPM to calculate the beta of the stock. The required rate of return of the stock is 12%, Risk free interest rate is 4% and market return is 10%.
required return= risk-free rate +Beta*(market rate- risk-free rate )
12=4+Beta*(10-4)
Beta=(12-4)/(10-4)
=1.33(Approx).
Given the following information, use the CAPM to calculate the beta of the stock. The required...
Based on the CAPM, a stock has a required return of 16%. The beta of the stock is 2.5 and the risk-free rate is 4%. What is the market risk premium? 12% 4.4% 8.8% 6.30% None of the above
What is the CAPM required return of a stock with a beta of 1.2 if the risk-free rate is 1.9% and the expected market risk premium is 5.5%? Answer in percent, rounded to two decimal places. (e.g., 4.32% = 4.32). [Hint: CAPM required return = Risk-free rate + beta x EMRP. Remember order of operations. Multiply beta and EMRP first, then add the risk-free rate]
answer a & b please
