The market price of a security is $50. Its expected rate of return is 14%. The risk-free rate is 6%, and the market risk premium is 8.5%. What will be the market price of the security if its correlation coefficient with the market portfolio doubles (and all other variables remain unchanged)? Assume that the stock is expected to pay a constant dividend in perpetuity.

Assume that the risk-free rate is 2.8 percent, and that the market risk premium is 4.8 percent. If a stock has a required rate of return of 16.1 percent, what is its beta? Your Answer: Answer
Assume the expected return on the market is 16 percent and the risk-free rate is 4 percent. -What is the expected return for a stock with a beta equal to 0.50? - What is the market risk premium?
Suppose the market premium is 12%, market volatility is 20% and the risk-free rate is 6%. Suppose a security has a beta of 0.8. Using the CAPM, what is its expected return? (Round off the final answer to one decimal place. Example of writing your answer 2.5%)
the risk free rate is 3% and the market premium rM rRF is 4%. stock A has a beta of 1.2, and stock B has a beta of 0.8. what is the required rate of return on each stock? assume that investors become less willing to take risk (i.e, they become more risk averse), so the market risk premium rises from 4% to 6%. Assume that the risk free rate remains constant. what effect will this have on the required rates of return on the two stocks?
