Answer:

12.64%

Explanation:

In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

= 4% + 0.87 × 7.4%

= 4% + 6.438%

= 10.438%

The Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)  is also known as the market risk premium and the same is applied.

Now the required rate of return would be

= 10.438% + 2.2%

= 12.64%
