Expert Solution

Computation of the required rate of return:-

Required rate of return = rRF + (Beta*RPM)

= 3% + (1 * 4%)

= 3% + 4%

= 7.00%

 

If inflation increases by 1%, then;

Risk free shall be = 3% + 1% = 4%

Required rate of return = 4% + (1 * 4%)

= 4% + 4%

= 8.00%

 

If risk aversion increases by 2%, then;

RPM shall be = 4% + 2% = 6%

Required rate of return = 3% + (1 * 6%)

= 3% + 6%

= 9.00%

 

If inflation increases by 1% and risk aversion increases by 2%, then;

Risk free rate = 3% + 1% = 4%

RPM = 4% + 2% = 6%

Required rate of return = 4% + (1 * 6%)

= 4% + 6%

= 10.00%
