Answer:

 

(a)    13,3%

(b) 18,1%

Explanation:

To calculate the required rate of return for an assets it's necessary to use the CAPM (Capital Asset Pricing Model) model which considers these variables to estimate the required return of an assets, the model states the next:

ER = Rf  +   Bix( ERm - Rf )  

ER : Expected Return of Investment    

Rf : Risk-Free Rate    

Bi : Beta of the Investment    

ERm : Expected Return of the Market    

(Erm-Rf) :    Market Risk Premium    

It tries to explain the relationship between the systematic risk ((Erm-Rf  Market Risk Premium) of the market and the expected returns for assets.
