Answer:
The beta coefficient for Stock L that is consistent with equilibrium
Explanation:
According to Capital Asset Pricing Model, the formula to compute expected rate of return is equals to
Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × (Market risk - risk free rate of return)
where,
rRF = risk free rate of return
rM = market risk
Stock L that is consistent with equilibrium is expected rate of return which equals to = 9.25%
So,
9.25% = 3.6% + Beta × (8.5% - 3.6%)
9.25% = 3.6% + 4.9% Beta
9.25% - 3.6% = 4.9% Beta
5.65% = 4.9% Beta
Beta = 5.65% ÷ 4.9% = 1.15
Hence, the beta coefficient for Stock L that is consistent with equilibrium is 1.15
