Answer: d. The actual expected stock return indicates the stock is currently underpriced.

Explanation:

According to CAPM, the expected return is:

= Risk free rate + beta * (market return - risk free rate)

= 4.3% + 1.14 * (12.01% - 4.3%)

= 13.09%

The actual expected return is greater than the CAPM expected return.

This stock is underpriced because it is bringing in a higher return than CAPM predicted based on the market.

Disadvantage of Corporate Form of Organization:

d. Government regulation
