In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below
Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)
= 6.10% + 1.25 × 8.8%
= 6.10% + 11%
= 17.10%
The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also known as market risk premium and the same is applied.
All other information which is given is not relevant. Hence, ignored it

It is calculated as
PED =% change in quantity demand / % change in price.

If the PED is greater than 1, the demand is price elastic
If the PED is less than 1 , demand is price inelastic
For Dan, the demand is price inelastic
