Answer:

After tax real rate will be 2.2 %

So option (b) will be correct answer

Explanation:

We have given nominal interest rate = 8 %

Inflation rate = 5 %

And marginal tax = 10 %

We have to find the after tax real rate interest

After tax real rate of interest is given by

After tax real rate = nominal interest rate ( 1 - tax rate ) - inflation rate

= 8 ( 1 - 0.1 ) - 5 = 8×0.9 -5 = 7.2 - 5 = 2.2 %

So option (b) will be correct answer

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

D) Beta .98 expected return .107

Explanation:

In CAPM (Capital Asset Pricing Model), expected return = risk-free rate + Beta * market risk premium = 3.4% + Beta * 7.4%

We try every choice consecutively

A) Beta .87  expected return .096

⇒ expected return = 3.4% + 0.87 * 7.4% = 0.098

A is wrong

B) Beta 1.09   expected return .102

⇒ expected return = 3.4% + 1.09 * 7.4% = 0.1147

B is wrong

C) Beta 1.62 expected return .146

⇒ expected return = 3.4% + 1.62 * 7.4% = 0.154

C is wrong

D) Beta .98 expected return .107

⇒  expected return = 3.4% + 0.98 * 7.4% = 0.107

D is TRUE

E) Beta 1.16   expected return .139

⇒ expected return = 3.4% + 1.16* 7.4% = 0.12

E is wrong
