Question 25
You own a portfolio invested 28.44% in Stock A, 14.81% in Stock B, 27.19% in Stock C, and the remainder in Stock D. The beta of these four stocks are 0.78, 1.14, 0.34, and 1.04. What is the portfolio beta?
Note: Enter your answer rounded off to two decimal points. For example, if your answer is 12.345 then enter as 12.35 in the answer box.
22...According to the CAPM,SML equation is as follows: |
Reqd. return on Equity, ke=RFR+Beta*Market risk premium |
So, calculating the reqd. return on Stock Y, |
3.5%+(1.8*6.5%)= |
15.20% |
AS the expected return in the market for this stock is 14% , for this measure of beta,it will be plotted below the SML in the graph. |
It is overvalued in price because return of 14% does not seem to overcome the risks associated with the stock. |
Similarly,, calculating the reqd. return on Stock Z, |
3.5%+(1.1*6.5%)= |
10.65% |
AS the expected return in the market for this stock is 11.5% , for this measure of beta,it will be plotted above the SML in the graph. |
Hence Stock Z is under-valued in price because of its greater return of 11.5% that overcomes the risks associated with the stock. |
So, ANSWER is: Security that is overvalued is: |
Stock Y, because it plots below the SML |
23..ABC's expected reurn =Sum of all probable returns |
ie.ABC's expected Return=(40%*8.6%)+(25%*11.2%)+(35%*21.7%)= |
13.84% |
24…AS per CAPM, |
The expected return of ABC=3.1%+(1.22*10.7%) |
16.15% |
25..The portfolio beta is the weighted beta of its individual components |
ie. (28.44%*0.78)+(14.81%*1.14)+(27.19%*0.34)+(29.56%*1.04)= |
0.79 |
