Answer:
the portfolio's return will be Ep(r)= 9.2 %
Explanation:
if the stock lies on the security market line , then the expected return will be
Ep(r) = rf + β*( E(M)- rf)
where
Ep(r) = expected return of the portfolio
rf= risk free return
E(M) = expected return of the market
β = portfolio's beta
then
Ep(r) = rf + β*( E(M)- rf)
E(M) = (Ep(r) - rf ) / β + rf
replacing values
E(M) = (Ep(r) - rf ) / β + rf
E(M) = ( 17.2% - 3.2%) /1.4 + 3.2% = 13.2%
since the stock and the risk free asset belongs to the security market line , a combination of both will also lie in this line, then the previous equation of expected return also applies.
Thus for a portfolio of β=0.6
Ep(r) = rf + β*( E(M)- rf) = 3.2% + 0.6*(13.2%-3.2%) = 9.2 %
Ep(r)= 9.2 %

Answer:
correct option is b. $167
Explanation:
given data
free cash flow FCF 1 = -$10 million
t = 1
free cash flow FCF 2= $20 million
t = 2
FCF grow rate = 4%
average cost of capital = 14%
to find out
what is the firm's value of operations
solution
first we get here firm value in year 2 that is express as
firm value in year 2 = expected FCF in 3 ÷ (cost of capital - growth) .........1
put here value
firm value in year 2 = 
firm value in year 2 = 208 million
and
firm value of operation this year will be as
firm value = discounted value in year 2 + discounted FCF1 and FCF2 .............2
firm value = 
firm value = 166.67 = 167 million
so correct option is b. $167
