Arisa [49]

Answer:

15.4%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine your best guess for the rate of return on the stock

The revised estimate on the rate of return on

the stock would be:

Before

14% = α +[4%*1] + [6%*0.4]

α = 14% - 6.4%

α = 7.6%

With the changes:

7.6% + [5%*1] + [7%*0.4]

= 7.6% + 5% + 2.8%

= 15.4%

Therefore your best guess for the rate of return on the stock will be 15.4%
