Expected return of the stock is greater than 12%.
Using formula, Risk free rate + beta (market risk rate - risk free rate)\
= 2% + 2.0 (7%-2%)
= 13.6 - 0.4* risk premium
Risk premium of a stock is greater than 12%.
A stock's total return takes into account both capital gains and losses as well as dividend income, as opposed to a stock's nominal return, which only displays its price movement. In addition to considering the actual rate of return, investors should consider their ability to withstand the risk involved with a given investment. An investment's return on investment (ROI) provides a general indication of its profitability. The return on investment (ROI) is calculated by subtracting the investment's initial cost from its final value, dividing the result by the cost of the investment, and finally multiplying the result by 100.
