Answer:
d) He earned a lower interest rate than he expected
Explanation:
Data provided in the question
Invested amount ten years ago = $1,000
Expected amount = $1,800
Today amount = $1,680
Based on the above information,
Since the bond is based on the floating rate not the fixed rate that results in the value of the investment to $1,800
And, the today amount is $1,680 i.e. less than the expected amount so the internet rate should be less as compared with the expected rate
hence, correct option is d.

Calculation for YTM
First step is to use financial calculator to find the I which represent Interest rate
FV = 1,000
PMT= 1,000*8.4%/2= 42
N= 9years*2= 18
PV= -955
Hence,
I= 4.57%
Now let calculate YTM
YTM = 4.57%*2
YTM =9.14%
Therefore YTM will be 9.14%
Answer:
Expected market return is 13%
Explanation:
CAPM is used to calculate the expected return on an asset for decision making to add any further asset to a well diversified portfolio. It involves different factors like market risk premium, asset beta and risk free rate as well to calculate a return rate which is expected to obtain from underline asset or investment.
As per given data
Expected return = 17.2%
Stock beta = 1.6
Risk free rate = 6%
According to CAPM
Expected Return on security = Risk free rate + Stock beta ( Market Risk Premium )
17.2% = 6% + 1.6 × ( Market Risk Premium )
17.2% = 6% + 1.6 × ( Market return - Risk free rate )
17.2% = 6% + 1.6 × ( Market return - 6% )
17.2% - 6% = 1.6 × ( Market return - 6% )
11.2% = 1.6 × ( Market return - 6% )
11.2% / 1.6 = Market return - 6%
7% = Market return - 6%
7% + 6% = Market return
Market return = 13%
