Using CAPM to determine the expected rate of return for risky assets, consider the following example stocks, assuming that you have already compute the betas Stock Beta A 0.70 B 1.00 C 1.15 D 1.40 E -0.30 Assume that we expect the economy’s RFR to be 5 percent (0.05) and the expected return on the market portfolio (E(RM)) to be 9 percent (0.09), 1, what would this imply? With these inputs, what would the be the following required rate of returns for these five stocks, show the formula for each in your calculations.

Finance The risk-free rate is 3.7 percent and the expected return on the market is 12.3 percent. Stock A has a beta of 1.1and an expected return of 13.1 percent. Stock B has a beta of .86 and an expected return of 11.4 percent. Arethese stocks correctly priced? Why or why not? Use E(Ri) = Rf + βi(E(RM) − Rf).
d. Compute the portfolio return and portfolio risk if the Stock A and Stock B are combined equally in a portfolio. 19. Consider the three factor APT model Factor Risk Premium Change in GNP 5% Change in energy prices -1 Change in long-term interest rates +2 Calculate the expected rate of return on the following stocks. The risk free interest rate is 7% a. A stock whose return is uncorrelated with all three factors b. A stock with average exposure to each factor (i.e., with b = 1 for each) c. A pure play energy stock with high exposure to the energy factor (b-2) but zero exposure to the other two factors /20. Maroc Group of Companies (MGC) Ltd is considering an investment in an equipment costing GHC80,000. The equipment would attract a 25% annual written down allowance. The operating cash 1lows are expected to be as follows: Year GHC 30,000 2 40,000 3. 20,000 The investment would also require additional working capital of GHC25,000 in the year of investment which will be recovered at the…
Suppose that the index model for stocks A and B is estimated from excess returns with the following results: RA = 2.60% + 0.90RM + eA RB = -2.00% + 1.20RM + eB OM = 26%; R-squarea = 0.21; R-squareg = 0.12 Assume you create portfolio P with investment proportions of 0.70 in A and 0.30 in B.
Suppose that many stocks are traded in the market and that it is possible to borrow at the risk-free rate, rƒ. The characteristics of two of the stocks are as follows: Stock Expected Return Standard Deviation A 8% 55% B 4% 45% Correlation = −1 Required: a. Calculate the expected rate of return on this risk-free portfolio? (Hint: Can a particular stock portfolio be formed to create a “synthetic” risk-free asset?) (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) b. Could the equilibrium rƒ be greater than rate of return?
You own a portfolio equally invested in a risk-free asset and two stocks. One of has risky as has a beta of 1.6, and the total portfolios is equally as risky as the market. What's the beta of the second stock?
Using the following information determine the expected rate of return for a risky asset using CAPM, consider the following example stocks assuming that you have already computed their betas Stocks Beta A 0.70 B 1.00 C 1.15 D 1.40 E -0.30 Assume that you expect the economy RFR to be 6% (0.06) The expected return on the market portfolio (E(Rm)) to be 8% (0.08) A market risk premium of (0.04). Question: What would be the SML required rate of return for the following stocks. A, B,C,D and E
Consider a CAPM economy. The risk free rate (rf ) is 4% and the expected market return (rM )is 10%. (a) Stock 1: β = 0.90. Compute the expected return of stock 1. (b) Stock 2: β = 1.1. Compute the expected return of stock 2. (c) Portfolio 1: The proportions invested in stock 1, stock 2, and risk free asset are 30%, 30%,and 40%, respectively. Compute the beta and expected return of portfolio 1. (d) Portfolio 2: The proportions invested in stock 1, stock 2, and risk free asset are 50%, 60%,and -10%, respectively. Compute the beta and expected return of portfolio 2.
Suppose you estimate that stock A has a volatility of 32% and a beta of 1.42, whereas stock B has a volatility of 68% and a beta of 0.75. (a) Which stock has more total risk? (b) Which stock has more market risk? (c) Suppose the risk-free rate is 2% and you estimatethe market’s expected return as 10%. Which firm has a higher cost of equity capital?
Currently the risk-free rate equals 5% and the expected return on the market portfolio equals 11%. An investment analyst provides you with the following information: Stock A Beta 1.33 Expected Return 12% Stock B Beta 0.7 Expected Return 10% (a) Calculate the reward-to-risk ratios of stock A, stock B and in market equilibrium. Are stock A and stock B overvalued, undervalued or fairly valued? Briefly explain. [within 150 words] (b) You want a portfolio with the same risk as the market. Calculate the weights of stock A and B respectively. (please show me steps and round the final answer to 2 decimal places, thanks)
