1. Suppose S₁ = 4, S₁(H) = 8, S₁(T) = 2 and the risk-free interest rate So is r = 0. Someone is willing to buy or sell European Call options with strike price k = 10 for the price Vo = 2. Explain why there exists an arbitrage opportunity; ie construct a portfolio which starts with nothing, has a positive chance of earning money and zero probability of losing money. SOLUTION
Suppose you observe the following situation: Security Beta Expected Return Peat Company 1.70 13.60 Re - Peat Company 0.85 10.80 Assume these securities are correctly priced. Based on the CAPM, what is the expected return on the market? What is the risk - free rate?
The market portfolio (M) has the expected rate of return E(rM) = 0.12. Security A is traded in the market. We know that E(rA) = 0.17 and βA = 1.5. (1) What is the rate of return of the risk-free asset (rf)? (2) Security B is also traded in the market. βB = 0.8. Then what is “fair” expected rate of return of security B according to the CAPM? (3) Security C is a third security traded in the market. βC = 0.6, and from the market price, investors calculate E(rC) = 0.1. Is C overpriced or underpriced? What is αC?

Suppose that the Treasury bill rate is 6% rather than 3%, as we assumed in Table 12.1, and the expected return on the market is 9%. Use the betas in that table to answer the following questions. a. When you assume this higher risk-free interest rate, what makes sense for how you should modify your assumption about the rate of return on the market portfolio? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 1 decimal place.) b. Recalculate the expected return on the stocks in Table 12.1. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 1 decimal place.) c. Suppose now that you continued to assume that the expected return on the market remained at 9%. Now what would be the expected returns on each stock? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 1 decimal place.)d. Ford offer a higher or lower expected return if the interest rate is 6% rather than 3%? e. Walmart offer a higher or…
Assume the APT equation for portfolios A and B with the following system of equations: E[rA] = λ0 + (λ1)3 + (λ2)0.2 = 11.0 E[rB] = λ0 + (λ1)2 + (λ2)1 = 13.0 Assume the following: . The risk free rate is λ0 = Rf = 5 . The expected return on the market portfolio is RM = 10 . Expected returns are consistent with the CAPM. . (hint: note that λ1 = E[RA] − Rf and λ2 = E[RB] − Rf ). Answer the following: (a) What are λ1 and λ2? (b) What is the CAPM β associated with the pure portfolio associated with factor 1? (c) What is the CAPM β associated with the pure portfolio associated with factor 2?
a) Suppose the risk-free rate is 7% and the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 10%. In your view, the expected rate of return of a security is 12.2%. Given that this security has a beta of 1.4, do you consider it to be overpriced, under-priced or fairly priced according to the Capital Asset Pricing Model? Please provide the details of your calculations b) explain when a security is overpriced, under-priced or fairly priced according to the Capital Asset Pricing Model.
Consider an economy with a (net) risk-free return r1 = 0:1 and a market portfolio with normally distributed return, with ErM = 0:2 and 2M = 0:02. Suppose investor A has CARA preferences, with risk aversion coe¢ cient equal to 1 and an endowment of 10. a) Write down the maximization problem for the investor. b) Determine the amount invested in the risky portfolio and in the risk-free asset. c) Suppose another investor (B) has a coe¢ cient of absolute risk aversion equal to 2 (and the same endowment 10). Compute his optimal portfolio and compare it to that of investor A. Explain the di§erent results for investors A and B. d) Finally, consider Investor C with mean-variance preferences Ec V ar(c) (and endowment 10). Compute his optimal portfolio and compare it to that of investors A and B (as obtained in questions b and c). Compare your result with those obtained for investors A and B.
Suppose the CAPM holds. You know that the average investor has a degree risk aversion of 3.3. The current risk free rate is 0.012, the inflation is estimated 0.017, and the volatility of the market is 0.17. What is the market risk premium? [*.000]
