Using the data generated in the graph, show what the information looks like in a spreadsheet.
a) Plot the Security Market Line (SML)
b) Superimpose the CAPM’s required return on the SML
c) Indicate which investments will plot on, above, and below the SML?
d) If an investment’s expected return (mean return) does not plot on the SML, what does
it show? Identify undervalued/overvalued investments from the graph.
In an efficient market when asset expected returns are plotted against asset betas, then all assets would be on the security market line
A. Because all assets have the same beta
B. Because no assets have the same risk premium
C. Because all assets have the same reward to risk ratio
D. Because all assets have the same systematic risk
E. Because all assets have the same average amount of systematic risk
A measure of how the returns of two risky
assets move in relation to each other is the:
Elasticity
Covariance.
Beta. Correlation.
