- Investors expect the market rate of return this year to be 13.00%. The expected rate of return on a stock with a beta of 1.6 is currently 20.80%. If the market return this year turns out to be 11.40%, how would you revise your expectation of the rate of return on the stock?arrow_forwardYou are thinking of buying a stock priced at $100 per share. Assume that the risk-free rate is about 4.5% and the market risk premium is 6%. If you think the stock will rise to $117 per share by the end of the year, at which time it will pay a $1 dividend, what beta would it need to have for this expectation to be consistent with the CAPM?arrow_forwardImagine that you are an investor who is contemplating whether to purchase a stock which is valued at $100 per share to today that pays a 3.5% annual dividend. The stock has a beta compared with the market of 0.3, which indicates that it is riskier than a market portfolio. Keep in mind also that the risk free rate is 5% and that you would expected the market to rise in value by 9% per year. What is the expected return of the stock using the CAPM formulaarrow_forward
