Answer: Positivity effect

Explanation: In simple words, positivity effect refers to the situation when someone gets unexpected results from a research or analysis but the results stills happens to be positive and useful for future reference.

In the given case, the research group were expecting a negative review from the coal workers due to their continuous complaints about low pay and benefits. However the results came to be completely different as the workers were happy most of the time.

The risk-free rate is 7% and the expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 11%. a. Calculate the required rate of retur
____ [38]

Answer:

Required rate of return= 14.8

If the security is expected to return 15%, it is underpriced.

Explanation:

The required rate of return on the security can be calculated using the CAPM formula which states that

Required rate of return =rf + B(rm  - rf)

where rf= risk free rate

          B= beta of the security

          rm = return on the market

Required rate of return = 0.07 + 1.92(0.11-0.07) = 14.68%

If the security is expected to return 15%, it is underpriced, and is a good investment. Discounting the expected cash-flows from the security at this higher expected return of 15% is going to yield a lower price compared to what the investor is prepared to pay given his required rate of return of 14.68%.
