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%.
1. Stock Y has a beta of 1.2 and an expected return of 11.1 percent. Stock Z has a beta of .8 and an expected return of 7.85 percent. If the risk-free rate is 2.4 percent and the market risk premium is 7.2 percent, the reward-to-risk ratios for stocks Y and Z are ____ and ____ percent, respectively. Since the SML reward-to-risk is ____ percent, Stock Y is ____(undervalued/ overvalued) and Stock Z is ____(undervalued/ overvalued).
Stock Y has a beta of 1.4 and an expected return of 15.1 percent. Stock Z has a beta of .7 and an expected
return of 8.6 percent. If the risk-free rate is 5 percent and the market risk premium is 6.5 percent, the reward-to-risk
ratios for Stocks Y and Z are
the SML reward-to-risk is
percent, Stock Y is
and
percent, respectively. Since
and Stock Z is
