Answer:
13.64%
Explanation:
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)
= 4.8% + 1.7 × (10% - 4.8%)
= 4.8% + 1.7 × 5.2%
= 4.8% + 8.84%
= 13.64%
The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also called market risk premium

Answer:
The answer is B. Ethan has more experience than Karen.
Explanation:
Now, lets take each Answer option separately and see why only B is correct.
Option A is no longer legally accepted or ethical. Perhaps during the era of segregation back in 1960s' this option could have been acceptable. But today it is illegal and is considered as a violation of basic human rights.
Option C is not correct as well because although people with special needs and physical requirements are entitled to receive certain special treatments, paying them more solely based on their disability is not considered suitable nor ethical.
Option D is unacceptable. No one can assume that men have more stamina than women. There are competent, strong and qualified women who can do their jobs much better than men. So we cannot accept this as an answer.
Option E is incorrect as well. Although a person could be an immigrant, once that person has lawfully taken the citizenship of a country, that "immigrant" is considered as a "citizen" of that country (this is not applicable for illegal immigrants!).
However, we can take option B as the answer. This is because when comparing a new employee with a more experienced employee, we can't see any problem in paying the experienced employee more.
