$40.$ Calculate the Alpha and Beta for General Motors using the historic total return data on the spreadsheet. The Beta is:

a$.0\mathrm{.}10$ f$.1\mathrm{.}72$

b$.0\mathrm{.}63$ g$.1\mathrm{.}93$

c$.0\mathrm{.}93$ h$.-0\mathrm{.}27$

$1\mathrm{.}09$ i$.-0\mathrm{.}91$

e$.1\mathrm{.}40$ j$.-1\mathrm{.}04$

$41.$ Using the data for question $40,$ the Alpha is $[$note the answers are given as percentages because the Alpha is part of the $$return$$ while the regression will provide numbers$]$:

$0\mathrm{.}01\%$ f$.-0\mathrm{.}01\%$

$0\mathrm{.}29\%$ g$.-0\mathrm{.}29\%$

c$.0\mathrm{.}53\%$ h$.-0\mathrm{.}53\%$

d$.0\mathrm{.}59\%$ i$.-0\mathrm{.}59\%$

e$.0\mathrm{.}72\%$ j$.0\mathrm{.}72\%-$
