A stock has a beta of 1.45, the expected return on the market is 19 percent, and the risk-free rate is 5.00 percent. What must the expected return on this stock be? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)

Respuesta :

Answer: 25.30%

Explanation:

This can be calculated by the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM):

= Risk free rate + Beta * (Market return - Risk free rate)

= 5% + 1.45 * (19% - 5%)

= 5% + 20.3

= 25.30%
