Question
Suppose rRF = 6%, rM = 10%, and bi = 1.8.
- What is ri, the required
rate of return on Stock i? Round your answer to one decimal place.
%
- 1. Now suppose rRF increases to 7%. The slope of the SML remains constant. How would this affect rM and ri?
- Both rM and ri will remain the same.
- Both rM and ri will increase by 1 percentage point.
- rM will remain the same and ri will increase by 1 percentage point.
- rM will increase by 1 percentage point and ri will remain the same.
- Both rM and ri will decrease by 1 percentage point.
2. Now suppose rRF decreases to 5%. The slope of the SML remains constant. How would this affect rM and ri?
- Both rM and ri will remain the same.
- Both rM and ri will decrease by 1 percentage point.
- rM will decrease by 1 percentage point and ri will remain the same.
- rM will remain the same and ri will decrease by 1 percentage point.
- Both rM and ri will increase by 1 percentage point.
- 1. Now assume that rRF remains at 6%, but rM increases to 11%. The slope of the SML does not remain constant. How would these changes affect ri? Round your answer to one decimal place.
The new ri will be %.
2. Now assume that rRF remains at 6%, but rM falls to 9%. The slope of the SML does not remain constant. How would these changes affect ri? Round your answer to one decimal place.
The new ri will be %.

- Indicate whether the following statements are true or false (circle one). Use 1 or 2 sentences to discuss why it is so. (a) If R, is simple 1-month return, then the annualized return is 12 x R, after assuming all R = R. True False Why? (b) Let and r GSA be continuously compounded 1 - month returns for Goldman Sachs Group (GS) and American International Group (AIG). If we construct a portfolio using the share ain[0, 1] for GS, the portfolio cc return is ľ AIG = 0x*y +(1-x)*r True False Why? (c) In 5.

In each period the price can move up or down, St+1 is either uSt or dSt. Assume that the factor for moving up is u = 4/3, the factor for moving down is d = 3/4, and that the interest rate is r = 0.0. The initial stock price is So = 1. (a) Compute the price process (i.e. prices at all times and states) for a European Put option on the stock with strike price K = 1 and maturity T = 3.

- A researcher has determined that a two-factor model is appropriate to determine the return on a share. The factors are the percentage change in GNP and an interest rate. GNP market return is expected to grow by 13.5 percent and interest rate is expected to be 12.9 percent. A share has a beta of 1.2 on the GNP and -0.8 on the interest rate. If the risk-free rate is 11 percent, calculate the required rate of return on the share using APT.
