Question: Given the following information, Rf = 0.06, E(RM) = 0.12, σM = 0.15, Answer the given questions below:
[A] Assume a stock has a β of 1.2. Could this stock have a return of .10 in a given year?
[B] Calculate the β of a security with an equilibrium expected return of 0.03?
[C] Determine the numerical value of the equilibrium risk premium [that is, the excess return on the market portfolio]?
[D] Calculate the equilibrium expected return on a risky asset with β of 1.2 with β of 0.6?
Is it possible in equilibrium for the expected return on a risky security to be not greater than the risk-free rate?
