Answer:

I expect 4.6% Risk-free rate of return on a Norwegian security.

Explanation:

Spot rate = NKr5.9433  per $

US

Risk Free Rate = 3.2%

Inflation rate = 1.7%

Norway

Risk Free Rate = ?

Inflation rate = 3.1%

As we know

Real rate is the same globally

Real rate = Risk free rate - Inflation rate

Real Rate of US =  Real Rate of Norway

US Risk free rate - US Inflation rate = Norway Risk free rate - Norway Inflation rate

3.2% - 1.7% = Norway Risk free rate - 3.1%

1.5% = Norway Risk free rate - 3.1%

Norway Risk free rate = 3.1% + 1.5%

Norway Risk free rate = 4.6%
