Answer:
The Beta is 1
The required return increases to 13%
Explanation:
The formula for required return is given below:
Required Return = Risk-Free Rate of Return + β(Market Return – Risk-Free Rate of Return)
required return is 11%
risk-free rate of return=7%
Beta is unknown
market return-risk free rate of return is market risk premium is 4%
11%=7%+beta(4%)
11%-7%=beta*4%
4%=beta*4%
beta=4%/4%
beta=1
If the market risk premium increased to 6%,required return is calculated thus:
required return=7%+1(6%)
required return =13%
This implies that the riskier the stock, the higher the market risk premium, the higher the required return to investors.
