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.
