Two securities, A and B, are available for trading. Prices (at t=0) and future payoffs (at t=1) in both states are given in the following table. Assume that both states are equally likely (50% chance of each). There is another security, call it C, whose payoff at t=1 is equal to $300 in the weak state and $600 in the strong state. Find the no-arbitrage price (at t=0) of security C What is the risk-free rate of return in this economy?
Risk and return
Before understanding the concept of Risk and Return in Financial Management, understanding the two-concept Risk and return individually is necessary.
Capital Asset Pricing Model
Capital asset pricing model, also known as CAPM, shows the relationship between the expected return of the investment and the market at risk. This concept is basically used particularly in the case of stocks or shares. It is also used across finance for pricing assets that have higher risk identity and for evaluating the expected returns for the assets given the risk of those assets and also the cost of capital.
