Beta of stock A = 1.0; Beta of stock B = 1.5. Pick the correct answer.

 Stock B’s return > stock A’s return

Choose the correct answer

Strike in Jacksonville

High inflation

Recession

Hyper interest rates

Pick the correct answer (SML: security market line).

Returns should decreases with beta

The slope of SML = market risk premium

Beta shows diversifiable risk

The intercept of SML = market return

Beta of stock A is 1.2 and σ is 21%.  Beta of stock B is 0.8 and σ is 26%. You have a total investment of $200,000, among which 50% invest in stock A and the rest in B. Imagine your total investment including this portfolio is well diversified. Pick the correct answer.

Stock A’s return < stock B’s return

Stock A is safer than Stock B.

Stock A’s return = stock B’s return

Your portfolio’s beta = 1

Stock A has an expected return of 10% and a standard deviation of 25%.  Stock B has an expected return of 13% and a standard deviation of 35%.  Assume that risk free rate is 5% and the market risk premium, rM − rRF, = 6%. Portfolio AB: 50% invested in Stock A; 50% invested in Stock B. The correlation between stock A and B is 0. Choose the correct answer.

Portfolio of AB is riskless, because the two stocks are not correlated

Stock B's beta is 1b

Portfolio AB's return is 11%b

Beta of stock A = 0.8333

If investors anticipate a 5% risk-free rate, the market risk premium = 6%, beta = 1. Find the return.
