Given the$$ holding$-$period returns shown in the popup$$ window, LOADING...$,$ compute the average returns and the standard deviations for the Zemin Corporation and for the market.

b$.$ If$$ Zemin's beta is $1\mathrm{.}17$ and the$$ risk$-$free rate is $9$percent$,$ what would be an appropriate required return for an investor owning$$ Zemin? $($Note: Because the returns of Zemin Corporation are based on monthly$$ data, you will need to annualize the returns to make them compatible with the$$ risk$-$free rate. For$$ simplicity, you can convert from monthly to yearly returns by multiplying the average monthly returns by$12.)$

c$.$ How does$$ Zemin's historical average return compare with the return you believe to be a fair$$ return, given the$$ firm's systematic$$ risk?
