Risk and Return

What is the beta of a portfolio with the expected return of $18\%,$ if the risk$-$free rate is $6\%$ and the

risk premium of market portfolio is $8\%?$

Assume that the risk$-$free rate of interest is $6\%$ and the expected rate of return on the market is

$16\%.$ A share of stock sells for $$50$ today. It will pay a dividend of $$6$ per share at the end of the

year. Its beta is $1\mathrm{.}2.$ What do investors expect the stock to sell for at the end of the year?

Assume that the risk$-$free rate of interest is $6\%$ and the expected rate of return on the market is

$16\%.$ A stock has an expected rate of return of $4\%.$ What is its beta? Why would anyone consider

buying this risky asset which provides an expected return less than the risk$-$free rate?

The rate of return on short$-$term government securities $($perceived to be risk$-$free$)$ was about $5\%.$

Suppose the expected rate of return required by the market for a portfolio with a beta measure of

$1$ is $12\%.$ According to the capital asset pricing model:
