The following regression model was estimated to forecast the value of the Malaysian ringgit (MYR): MYR Fao+a+INC+a₂INF+U where MYR is the quarterly change in the ringgit, INF is the previous quarterly percentage change in the inflation differential, and INC is the predious quarterly percentage change in the income growth differential. Regression results indicato coeficients ao-0.004; a₁-0.6; and az -0.5. The most recent quarterly percentage change in the income differential is -1%, while the most recent quarterly percentage change in the inflation differential is -7%. Using this information, the forecast for the percentage change in the ringgit is % (1 decimal place please; note % is already given, so if you find an answer of .055, you will need to enter 5.5 for the correct answer because .055-5.5%)

If Zemin's beta is 1.12 and the risk-free rate is 7 percent, what would be an expected return for an investor owning Zemin? (Note: Because the preceding returns are based on monthly data, you will need to annualize the returns to make them comparable with the risk-free rate. For simplicity, you can convert from monthly to yearly returns by multiplying the average monthly returns by 12.) c. How does Zemin's historical average return compare with the return you believe you should expect based on the capital asset pricing model and the firm's systematic risk? Question content area…
