A cash inflow is expected to be realised, following the distribution above, at the end of each year, for ten consecutive years. Calculate the expected cash flow and its standard deviation (5 marks) The expected return of the stock market is 20% per annum with an annual standard deviation of 1.5 while the correlation of cash flows of the firm and market retums is 0.3. Calculate the beta of the firm. (10 marks) Calculate the risk adjusted discount rate if the risk free rate is 4% per 111) annum iv) Evaluate the present value of the cash flows.
