Suppose you observe the following situation: Security Beta Expected Return Peat Company 1.70 13.60 Re - Peat Company 0.85 10.80 Assume these securities are correctly priced. Based on the CAPM, what is the expected return on the market? What is the risk - free rate?
Using the SML [LO4] Asset W has an expected return of 11.8 percent and a beta
of 1.15. If the risk-free rate is 3.7 percent, complete the following table for
portfolios of Asset W and a risk-free asset. Illustrate the relationship between
portfolio expected return and portfolio beta by plotting the expected returns against
the betas. What is the slope of the line that results?

- 2C) Assume that the CAPM holds in the economy. The following data is available about the market portfolio, the riskless rate, and two risky assets, W and X: The market portfolio has a standard deviation equals to 10%, stock W has an expected return equals to 16%, standard deviation equals to 12%, and beta equals to one, stock X has a standard deviation equals to 6% and beta equals to 0.7. The risk-free rate is 3%. What is the expected return and the beta of the market portfolio? What is the expected return on asset X? Does asset W lie on the Capital Market Line?
