Suppose the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is valid in a market. Use CAPM to ex- plain and answer following questions. Note: There is no relationship between each situation. (a) Can security A exist in the market? (Hint: Security market line) If yes, compute risk premium on security A. If not, is this security underpriced or overpriced? Expected return 5% Asset Beta Risk-free Market 12% 1 A 15% 1.3 (b) Can security B exist in the market? (Hint: Security market line) If yes, compute risk premium on security B. If not, is this security underpriced or overpriced? Expected return 6% Asset Beta Risk-free Market 13% 16.5% 1 1.5 Suppose the expected cash flow can be collected from investment in security B is $1000 at time 1. And an investor thinks the beta of security B is 1.8. But the actual beta is given in the above table. Then how much more/less (you also need to select "more" or "less") will he offer for the firm than it is truly worth at time 0? Hint: the present value of the cash…

We believe that the single factor model can predict any individual asset’s realized rate of return well. Both Portfolio A and Portfolio B are well-diversified: ri = E(ri) + βiF + Ei, where E(ei) = 0 and Cov(F, i) = 0 A B β 1.2 0.8 E(r) 0.1 0.08 (1) What is the rate of return of the risk-free asset? (2) What is the expected rate of return of the well-diversified portfolio C with βC = 1.6, which also exists in the market? (3) A fund constructs a well-diversified portfolio D. Studies show that βD = 0.6. The expected rate of return of D is 0.06. Is there an arbitrage opportunity? If so, construct a trading strategy to earn profits with no risk. If not, why?
Please do a and b separate (Question 2) a) Plot the Security Market Line (SML)b) Superimpose the CAPM’s required return on the SMLc) Indicate which investments will plot on, above and below the SML? d) If an investment’s expected return (mean return) does not plot on the SML, what doesit show? Identify undervalued/overvalued investments from the graph.

True or False. and briefly explain. a. Under the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), if a stock has a zero beta, then it must be identical to the riskfree asset. b. For Value at Risk (VaR) to be useful, the returns have to be normally distributed. c.If the borrowing rate is higher than the lending rate, a particular risk-averse investor can achieve a maximized utility score of UC* by choosing optimally. Now if the borrowing rate is equal to the lending rate, this investor must be able to achieve a utility score higher than UC*
