Answer:
The average expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 10 percent.
Explanation:
The CAPM (fixed asset pricing) model describes the relationship between systematic risk and expected return on assets, especially stocks. CAPM is widely used throughout the financial community to value high-risk securities and achieve the expected returns on assets when taking into account the risk of those assets and the cost of capital.
The formula for calculating the expected return on an asset taking into account its risk is as follows:
ERi = Rf + βi (ERm - Rf)
where:
ERi = expected return on investment
Rf = risk-free interest rate = 4 percent.
βi = beta inversion =1.0
(ERm −Rf) = market risk premium = 6 percent.
ERi = 4 + 1 ×(6) =10
The average expected rate of return on the market portfolio is 10 percent.
The correct answer would be Incentive.
Incentive is a thing that motivates or encourages one to do something.

Answer: $62
Explanation:
The customer sold the stock short at $74 per share. Later on, the customer sold a Sept 65, Put at $3 on this stock. If the short put is exercised, the customer is obligated to buy the stock at $65 per share. Since the customer received $3 in premiums when the put was sold, the net cost to the customer is $62 per share for the stock (this is the cost basis in the stock for tax purposes). The stock that has been purchased is delivered to cover the short sale, closing the transaction. The customer's gain is: $74 sale proceeds - $62 cost basis = 12 point gain.
