As an equity analyst you are concerned with what will happen to the required return to Universal Toddler' stock as market conditions change. Suppose rRF = 3%, rM = 13%, and bUT = 1.2.

Answer:

The required rate of return on UT Stock is 18.60%

Explanation:

In this question, we use the Capital asset pricing model (CAPM) formula  

To compute the required rate of return on UT Stock, we need to apply the formula which is presented below:

Required rate of return = rRF + (bUT × rM)

where,  

rRF is a risk-free rate of return

bUT is a beta  

rM is a market risk  

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the answer would be equal to  

= 3% + (1.2 × 13%)

= 3% + 15.6%

= 18.60%
