Estimate Bartman's and Reynolds's betas by running regressions of their returns against the index's returns. Round your answers to four decimal places.
Bartman's beta: _______________
Reynolds's beta: ______________
Assume that the risk-free rate on long-term Treasury bonds is 4.5%. Assume also that the average annual return on the Winslow 5000 is not a good estimate of the market's required return—it is too high. So use 10% as the expected return on the market. Use the SML equation to calculate the two companies' required returns. Round your answers to two decimal places.
Bartman's required return: ____________ %
Reynolds's required return: ___________ %

2. 3: Risk and Rates of Return: Risk in Portfolio Context Risk
and Rates of Return: Risk in Portfolio Context The capital asset
pricing model (CAPM) explains how risk should be considered when
stocks and other assets are held . The CAPM states that any stock's
required rate of return is the risk-free rate of return plus a risk
premium that reflects only the risk remaining diversification. Most
individuals hold stocks in portfolios. The risk of a stock held in...
