Answer:
=2.98%
Explanation:
Use CAPM to find the required return of the stock;
CAPM: r = risk free + beta(market return - risk free)
risk free = 4.5% or 0.045 as a decimal
beta = -0.4
market return = 8.3% or 0.083 as a decimal
Next, plug in the numbers into the CAPM formula;
r = 0.045 -0.4(0.083 - 0.045)
r = 0.045 -0.0152
r = 0.0298 or 2.98%
Therefore the required return is 2.98%

Answer:
The correct answer is option a.
Explanation:
The long run aggregate supply curve is inelastic and vertical in shape. The reason behind this is that in the long run the output level is not affected by the change in price level. It is rather affected by the quantity of inputs.
A leftward shift in the long run aggregate supply means that the output level is decreasing. This decrease in input in this case is either because of decrease in quantity of labor available,or because of increase in minimum wages the firms are hiring less labor.
So, option a is the correct answer.
