The risk-free rate is 3 percent. Also, the expected return on the market portfolio is 10.5 percent. a. Calculate the expected return of your portfolio. (Hint: The expected return of a portfolio equals the weighted average of the individual stocks" expected returns, where the weights are the percentage invested in each stock.) b. Calculate the portfolio beta. c. Given the preceding information, plot the security market line on paper. Plot the stocks from your portfolio on your graph. d. From your plot in part c, which stocks appear to be your winners, and which ones appear to be your losers? e. Why should you consider your conclusion in part d to be less than certain?

The risk-free rate is 5.6%, the market risk premium is 8.5%, and the stock’s beta is 2.27.  What is the required rate of return on the stock, E(Ri)? Use the CAPM equation.

Problem 1: You invest in a portfolio of 5 stocks with an equal investment in each one. The betas of the 5 stocks are as follows: .75, -1.2, .90, 1.3, 1.5. The risk free return is 4% and the market return is 9%. A. Compute the beta of the portfolio B. Compute the required return of the portfolio

*Stock A has a beta of 1.3 and an expected return of 10.2. Stock B has a beta of 0.8 and an expected return of 8.7. If these stocks are priced correctly according to the CAPM, what is the risk-free rate? Give your answer in percentage to the nearest basis point.

The beta of a portfolio​ is:   A. A measure of the correlation of betas of the securities in the portfolio.   B. Always greater than one.   C. The market value weighted average beta of the securities in the portfolio.   D. The geometric average of the beta of the securities in the portfolio.

Expected return of a portfolio using beta. The beta of four stocks-P, Q, R, and S-are 0.59, 0.89, 1.05, and 1.31, respectively and the beta of portfolio 1 is 0.96, the beta of portfolio 2 is 0.87, and the beta of portfolio 3 is 1.05. What are the expected returns of each of the four individual assets and the three portfolios if the current SML is plotted with an intercept of 4.5% (risk-free rate) and a market premium of 12.0% (slope of the line)? ..... What is the expected return of stock P? % (Round to two decimal places.)
