Answer #1

1.A . Firstly we will need to find out the beta according to the Capital Asset pricing model.

Expected rate of return= risk free rate+(beta*market risk premium)

14= 6+(beta*8.5)

BETA= (8/8.5)=.9411

Expected price next year= (50*114%)=$57

B. if the correlation coefficient with the market portfolio will be doubling it will mean that the beta will be doubling and then the price of the share can be as follows-

Expected rate of return= 6+(2*.9411*8.5)

= 22%

Expected price next year=( 50*122%)= $61
