Answer:
The required rate of return on stock is 14.6% and option b is the correct answer.
Explanation:
The required rate of return is the minimum return that investors demand/expect on a stock based on the systematic risk of the stock as given by the beta. The expected or required rate of return on a stock can be calculated using the CAPM equation.
The equation is,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Where,
- rRF is the risk free rate
- rM is the return on market
r = 0.05 + 1.2 * (0.13 - 0.05)
r = 0.146 or 14.6%
