Suppose rRF = 6%, rM = 10%, and bi = 1.5.
1. What is ri, the required rate of return on Stock i? Round your answer to one decimal place.
=
2. Now suppose rRF increases to 7%. The slope of the SML remains constant. How would this affect rM and ri?
Both rM and ri will remain the same.
IIBoth rM and ri will increase by 1 percentage point.
3. Now suppose rRF decreases to 5%. The slope of the SML remains constant. How would this affect rM and ri?
3.
The new ri will be %.
2. Now assume that rRF remains at 6%, but rM falls to 9%. The slope of the SML does not remain constant. How would these changes affect ri? Round your answer to one decimal place.
The new ri will be %.
