Assume that the risk-free rate is 3.5% andthe market risk premium is 4%. What is the required return for the overall stock market?What is the required rate of return on a stock with a beta of 0.8?
How do you find the market risk premium and market expected return given the expected return of stock, beta, and risk free rate? Example:
The expected return of a stock with a beta of 1.2 is 16.2%. Calculate the market risk premium and the market expected return, given a risk-free rate of 3%.
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.
