Answer:
5%
Explanation:
stock's Alpha = R - Rf - beta (Rm - Rf)
- R represents the stock's return = $6/$25 = 24%
- Rf = 6%
- Beta = 1.3
- Rm = 16%
Alpha = 0.24 - 0.06 - 1.3 (0.1) = 0.24 - 0.06 - 0.13 = 0.24 - 0.19 = 0.05 = 5%
A stock's Alpha is basically the excess return that the stock yields compared to an specific benchmark, e.g. S&P 500, Dow Jones.
