Question

Suppose that there are two independent economic factors, F, and F2. The risk-free rate is 6%, and all stocks have independent firm-specific components with a standard deviation of 46%. Portfolios A and 8 are both well-diversified with the following properties:

Expected

Portfolio      Beta on F1     Beta on F2       Es Return
A                   2.1                   2.4                    35%
B                   3.0                  -0.24                  30%

What is the expected return-beta relationship in this economy? Calculate the risk-free rate, rf, and the factor risk premiums, RP1 and RP2, to complete the equation below. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places.)

Blrp) = r¢ + (Ber * RP1) + (Bp2 * RP2)
