Answer:

16.96%

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)

= 5.8% + 1.8 × (12% - 5.8%)

= 5.8% + 1.8 × 6.2%

= 5.8% + 11.16%

= 16.96%

The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)  is also called market risk premium

Answer:

  • After-Tax return on Municipal Bond = 7%
  • After-Tax Return on Corporate Bond = 6.72%

Explanation:

The main advantage that Municipal Bonds usually carry with them is that they are tax-exempt. As no taxes are paid on them, there is no need to calculate an after-tax return because it is the same as a pre-tax return.

After-Tax return on Municipal Bond = 7%

The Corporate Bond is subject to tax based on the holder's tax bracket.

After-Tax Return on Corporate Bond = 8.4 % * ( 1 - 20%)

After-Tax Return on Corporate Bond = 6.72%

<em>Considering taxes, the Municipal Bond is better. </em>
