Suppose the risk-free return is 4% and the market portfolio has an expected return of 10% and a volatility of 16%. 3M stock has a 22% volatility and a correlation with the market of 0.50. Required 1.what is 3M's beta with the market? 2. What capital market line portfolio has equivalent market risk 3. what is the expected return?
We have the following information on Stocks A and B. The risk-free rate is 5%, and the market risk premium is 7.5%. Assume that the market portfolio is correctly priced. Based on the reward-to-risk ratio, are Stocks A and B overpriced, underpriced, or correctly priced? Stock A Stock B Expected return 1196 16.25% Beta 0.8 1.5

Use the expected return-beta equation from the CAPM. What is the expected return for a stock if the risk-free rate is 4%, beta 0.9 and the expected return for the market portfolio is 6%? What is the risk-free rate if beta is 1.1, the expected return 6.3% and the expected return for the market portfolio is 6%? What is beta if the risk-free rate is 4%, the expected return 11% and the expected return for the market is 6%? What is the expected return for the market if the risk-free rate is 4%, beta 0.9 and the expected return 11%?
If the risk free rate is 4.4%, the expected return on the market portfolio (i.e., Rm)( is 11.6%, and the beta of Stock B is 0.9 , what is the required rate of return for Stock B according to the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)? (Round your answer rounded to one decimal place and record without a percent sign). Your Answer: If the risk free rate is 1.2%, the market risk premium (i.e., Rm - Rf) is 13.5%, and the beta of Stock B is 1.9 , what is the required rate of return for Stock B according to the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)? (Round your answer rounded to one decimal place and record without a percent sign). Your Answer:
You're analyzing a stock that has a beta of 1.65. If the risk free rate of return is .04 and market risk premium is .15, what is the required rate of return for this stock?
Using the CAPM, estimate the appropriate required rate of return for the three stocks listed here, given that the risk-free rate is 4 percent and the expected return for the market is 17 percent. STOCK BETA A 0.63 B 0.95 C 1.48 a. Using the CAPM, the required rate of return for stock A is B.Using the CAPM, the required rate of return for stock b is C.Using the CAPM, the required rate of return for stock C is (Round to two decimal places.)
When the return on the market portfolio goes up by 5%, the return on Stock A goes up onaverage by 8% and when the market portfolio return goes down by 5%, Stock A return goes down by 6%.a) Calculate the beta of this stock.b) Assuming that CAPM holds, calculate the required rate of return on this stock by assigning values forthe risk-free rate and the expected return on the market portfolio depending on your own choice. (The useof the same risk-free rate and market return by different students will be treated as a cheat attempt).
1. Suppose you have n risky assets you can combine in a portfolio. Each risky asset has an expected return of 8% and a standard deviation of 30%. The risky assets are uncorrelated with each other. (a) Consider an equally weighted portfolio of 2 of these securities. What is its expected return? What will its standard deviation be? (b) Consider an equally weighted portfolio of 30 of these securities. What is its expected return? What will its standard deviation be? (c) Suppose we let the number of these securities increase without bound. That is, n→ ∞o. What happens to the standard deviation of an equally weighted portfolio of these securities as the number of assets in the portfolio becomes extremely large? What will the riskless rate be in this case, and why? -int IDE
Suppose the risk-free return is 3.5% and the market portfolio has an expected return of 11.9% and a volatility of 12.9% Merck & Co.

A) What expected return should an investor expect from investments in common stock? You are given the following information: Risk free rate of return = 4%; market risk premium = 11%; Beta of the stock (assume CAPM holds) = 0.72. B) Stock A with beta of 0.8 offers a 11% return while stock B with a beta of 1.2 offers a 15% return. What is the risk-free rate? What is the common market return? Assume CAPM holds.
