(Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the final answer to 3 decimal places) Risk-free rate % Assume these securities are correctly priced.

- Which of the following statements is false? A. Basel II use the value at risk (VaR) with a one-year time horizon and a 99.9% confidence level for calculating capital for credit risk and operational risk. B. 20 BP = 0.2% C. Basel I is increasing the amount of capital that banks are required to hold and the proportion of that capital that must be equity. D. Model-building approach is a model for the joint distribution of changes in market variables and using historical data to estimate the model parameters.The following question illustrates the APT. Imagine that there are only two pervasive macroeconomic factors. Investments X, Y, and Z have the following sensitivities to these two factors: Investment b1 b2 X 1.75 0 Y −1.00 2.00 Z 2.00 1.00 We assume that the expected risk premium is 7.8% on factor 1 and 11.8% on factor 2. Treasury bills obviously offer zero risk premium. According to the APT, what is the risk premium on each of the three stocks? Suppose you buy $500 of X and $125 of Y and sell $375 of Z. What is the sensitivity of your portfolio to each of the two factors? What is the expected risk premium? Suppose you buy $200 of X and $150 of Y and sell $100 of Z. What is the sensitivity of your portfolio to each of the two factors? What is the expected risk premium? Finally, suppose you buy $400 of X and $50 of Y and sell $200 of Z. What is your portfolio's sensitivity now to each of the two factors? And what is the expected risk premium?Suppose you observe the following situation: Security Beta Expected Return Pete Corp. 1.70 0.180 Repete Co. 1.39 0.153 What is the risk - free rate? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the final answer to 3 decimal places.) Risk - free rate % Assume these securities are correctly priced. Based on the CAPM, what is the expected return on the market? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the final answers to 2 decimal places.) Expected Return on Market Pete Corp. % Repete Co. %
