Which stock is the riskiest stock? ____________
Explain
The risk free rate on a stock is 3%, the required rate in the market is 7%, and the beta is 1.6. This is the original position. Calculate the required rate of return, r.
Based on the above, now assume that inflation is expected to increase by 2%. Calculate the required rate of return. 2 points, show work
What happens to the SML? Circle one: Shifts Up or Shifts Down or Pivots Up or Pivots Down
What happens to the slope? Circle one: Slope remains the same or Slope gets steeper or Slope gets flatter
Now assume that inflation is expected to decrease by 1%. Calculate the required rate of return.
What happens to the SML? Circle one: Shifts Up or Shifts Down or Pivots Up or Pivots Down
What happens to the slope? Circle one: Slope remains the same or Slope gets steeper or Slope gets flatter
Now assume that investors are fearful, uneasy, with the current market situation and require a higher rate of return in the market. Thus, rm increases by 2.5%. Calculate the required rate of return.
What happens to the SML? Circle one: Shifts Up or Shifts Down or Pivots Up or Pivots Down
What happens to the slope? Circle one:Slope remains the same or Slope gets steeper or Slope gets flatter
Now assume that investors are confident, at ease, with the current market situation and require a lower rate of return in the market. Thus, rm decreases by 1%. Calculate the required rate of return.
