The following table shows betas for several companies. Calculate each stock’s expected rate of return using the CAPM. Assume the risk-free rate of interest is 6%. Use a 8% risk premium for the market portfolio. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
Company | Beta | Cost of Capital | |
Caterpillar | 1.81 | % | |
Apple | 1.45 | % | |
Johnson & Johnson | 0.64 | % | |
Consolidated Edison | 0.36 | % |
Risk-free rate = RF = 6%
Market risk premium = (RM - RF) = 8%
CAPM Equation
Expected return on an investemnt i is given by:
E[Ri] = RF + βi*(RM - RF)
where, RF = Risk-free rate, βi = beta of the investment i, (RM - RF) = market-risk premium
Caterpillar
Beta of caterpillar = βC = 1.81
Expected return on Caterpillar = E[RC] = RF + βA*(RM - RF) = 6% + 1.81*8% = 20.48%
Apple
Beta of Apple = βA = 1.45
Expected return on Apple = E[RA] = RF + βA*(RM - RF) = 6% + 1.45*8% = 17.6%
Johnson & Johnson
Beta of Johnson & Johnson = βJ = 0.64
Expected return on Caterpillar = E[RJ] = RF + βJ*(RM - RF) = 6% + 0.64*8% = 11.12%
Consolidated Edison
Beta of Edison = βE = 0.36
Expected return on Edison = E[RE] = RF + βE*(RM - RF) = 6% + 0.36*8% = 8.88%
Answer (in %)
Company | Cost of Capital |
Caterpillar | 20.48 |
Apple | 17.60 |
Johnson & Johnson | 11.12 |
Consolidated Edison | 8.88 |
