The following table shows betas for several companies. Calculate each stock’s expected rate of return using the CAPM. Assume the risk-free rate of interest is 7%. Use a 9% risk premium for the market portfolio. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)

Solution
Based on CAPM Equation,
Cost of Capital = Risk free rate + Beta * Market risk premium
(i) Cost of capital = 7% + (1.19 * 9%) = 17.71%
(ii) Cost of capital = 7% + (1.41 * 9%) = 19.69%
(iii) Cost of capital = 7% + (0.36 * 9%) = 10.24%
(iv) Cost of capital = 7% + (0.50 * 9%) = 11.50%
