Mikkelson Corporation's stock had a required return of 4.85% last year, when the risk-free rate was 2% and the market risk premium was 4.75%.

What is the company's new required rate of return? (Hint: First calculate the beta, then find the required return.) Do not round your intermediate calculations.
