Suppose the rate of return on short-term government securities (perceived to be risk-free) is about 5%. Suppose also that the expected rate of return required by the market for a portfolio with a beta of 1 is 12%. According to the capital asset pricing model:a. What is the expected rate of return on the market portfolio?b. What would be the expected rate of return on a stock with β = 0?c. Suppose you consider buying a share of stock at $40. The stock is expected to pay $3 dividends next year and you expect it to sell then for $41. The stock risk has been evaluated at β = −.5. Is the stock overpriced or underpriced?

. The following questions are related to modern portfolio theory. • Assume there are only two stocks in the equity market. •The risk-free rate is 1.00%. Stock Return Volatility Correlation Matrix Y 0.7 1.0 X Y X 15.00% 20.00% 1.0 10.00% 15.00% 0.7 (a) Make an investment portfolio using the risky assets that has an expected return 12%. (b) Calculate the volatility of the portfolio in (a).

2- Assume that the market has an expected return of 12% and volatility (standard deviation) of 20%. Company X has a 50% volatility (standard deviation). The correlation between the market and Company X is 90%. The risk-free rate is 3%. What would be the expected return on Company X?

Help me with part E please. Thank you so much a) Discuss the main assumptions of the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM).  (b) Write the equation of the Security Market Line (SML). Compute and draw theSML when the expected return of the NASDAQ index (market portfolio) is17% and the return to the risk-free asset is 7%. (c) Given the SML in (b), compute the beta and the expected return of the newshare Facebook assuming the volatility of the NASDAQ index (market portfolio) is 23.86% and its covariance with the share is 0.0655. (d) Facebook pays a dividend of 5 GBP and the growth of dividends is equal to 4%for the first two years and then rise to 6%. Assuming constant cost of capitalas computed in point (c), estimate the price of the Facebook share.  (e) Consider investing 20% of your wealth in the Facebook share with beta as in, What is the proportion you need to allocate to the Apple share with beta1.8 in order to replicate the market portfolio?
