1. A stock has an expected return of 10.2 percent, the risk-free rate is 4.1 percent, and the market risk premium is 7.2 percent. What must the beta of this stock be?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Beta is  0.85  

Explanation:

The value of Beta can de derived from the CAPM formula of expected return

expected return=risk-free rate+Beta*market risk premium

expected return  is 10.2%

risk-free rate is 4.10%

market risk premium is 7.2%

Beta is unknown

10.20%=4.10%+Beta*7.20%

10.20%-4.10%=Beta*7.20%

6.10% ==Beta*7.20%

Beta=6.10% /7.20%

Beta= 0.85
