Answer:

The Beta is 1

The required return increases to 13%

Explanation:

The formula for required return is given below:

Required Return = Risk-Free Rate of Return + β(Market Return – Risk-Free Rate of Return)

required return is 11%

risk-free rate of return=7%

Beta is unknown

market return-risk free rate of return is market risk premium is 4%

11%=7%+beta(4%)

11%-7%=beta*4%

4%=beta*4%

beta=4%/4%

beta=1

If the market risk premium increased to 6%,required return is calculated thus:

required return=7%+1(6%)

required return =13%

This implies that the riskier the stock, the higher the market risk premium, the higher the required return to investors.

maw [93]

Answer:

80 miles

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Rental of the first agency = $36.95 + 36 cents per mile

or

= $36.95 + $0.36 per mile                   [as $1 = 100 cents ]

Rental of the second agency = $44.95 + 26 cents per mile

or

= $44.95 + $0.26 per mile  

now,

let the mileage be 'x' miles

therefore,

the cost for the first agency will be = $36.95 + ( 0.36 × x )    ............(a)

and,

the cost for the second agency will be = $44.95 + ( $0.26 × x )    ........(b)

for the equal mileage, equating (a) and (b)

$36.95 + ( 0.36 × x ) = $44.95 + ( $0.26 × x )

or

( $0.36 - $0.26 ) × x = $44.95 - $36.95

or

0.1x = 8

or

x = 80 miles
