4. Explain what the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is and calculate
and explain the result of the CAPM based on the following data.
a. Expected Return: 8%
b. Risk-free rate: 4%
c. Beta of the investment: 1.2
ER=Rf+B(ERm - Rf)
where:
ER = expected return of investment
Rf risk-free rate
B;= beta of the investment
-
(ERm - Rf) = market risk premium
