Wolff Enterprises must consider several investment projects, A through E, using the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) and its graphical representation, the security market line (SML). Relevant information is presented in the following table ITEM RATE OF RETURN BETA Risk-free asset 9% 0.0 Market portfolio 14% 1.0 Project A - 1.5 Project B - 0.75 Project C - 2.00 Project D - 0.0 Project E - -0.50 Calculate (1) the required rate of return and (2) the risk premium for each project, given its level of nondiversifiable risk. Use your findings in part a to draw the security market line (required rate of return relative to nondiversifiable risk) Discuss the relative nondiversifiable risk of projects A through E. Assume that recent economic events have caused investors to become less risk-averse, causing the market return to decline to 12%. Calculate the new required returns fcor assets A through E and draw the new security market line on the same graph you drew for b. Compare your findings…

Calculate the NPV of each project for discount rates of 0%, 10%, and 20%. Plot these on a graph with NPV on the vertical axis and discount rate on the horizontal axis. b. What is the approximate IRR for each project? c. In what circumstances should the company accept project A? d. Calculate the NPV of the incremental investment (B – A) for discount rates of 0%, 10%, and 20%. Plot these on your graph. Show that the circumstances in which you would accept A are also those in which the IRR on the incremental investment is less than the opportunity cost of capital.
