QUESTION 7: Given the following information: The risk-free rate is 2.5%, the beta of stock A is 1.5, the beta of stock B is 0.78, the expected return on stock A is 11.5%, and the expected return on stock B is 10.5%. Further, we know that stock A is fairly priced and that the betas of stocks A and B are correct. What is the reward-to-risk ratio of stock B? Is stock B fairly priced?

d. Interpret your results in (c) above, assuming that the historical average return of 8.5% from the stock is a good benchmark. e. Critically evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of applying the implied rate of return from the RIVM as a proxy of the expected return.

Give me three steps solution and explanation

Stock Y has a beta of 1.8 and an expected return of 18.2 percent. Stock Z has a beta of 8 and an expected return of 9.6 percent. If the risk-free rate is 5.2 percent and the market risk premium is 6.7 percent, the reward-to-risk ratios for Stocks Y and Z are percent, respectively. Since and the SML reward-to-risk is percent, Stock Y is and Stock Z is (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
