Answer to Problem 1PS

The expected rate of return is 15.5% of the stock.

Explanation of Solution

Here, the expected rate of return is calculated as given below,

Return rate = [E(R)+β1F1+β2F2] , here first we calculated F1 and F2 .

Now calculate F1 , A the value of actual (IP) is 5% and E (IP) is 3%

  F1 = 5%  3%   = 2%

Now calculate factor F2 , F2= [Actual (IR)  E (IR)],

  F2= 8%  5%     = 3%,

Now substitute the values of factor in equation, we get,

  Return rate(R)=[E(R)+β1F1+β2F2]=12%+1×2%+0.5×3%=15.5%

Hence the expected rate of return is 15.5 % for the firm.
