b) Suppose that you observe the following information in Table 2 for stocks A and B: Table 2 Expected Return (%) 11% Stock Beta A 0.8 В 14% 1.5 The risk-free rate of return is 6% and the expected rate of return on the market index is 12%. Using the Single-Index Model, calculate the alpha of both stocks. Show your calculations. Explain what the alpha of the single-factor model represents and interpret your results.

Use the portion of the stock table shown below to answer the questions that follow. Round dollar amounts to the nearest cent, if necessary.
