Question 12

Economy Return Probablity Expected return
Normal 9% 67% 6.03
Booms 13% 21% 2.73
Recession 8% 12% 0.96
      9.72%

Answer = 9.72%

Question 13

Return = [ Dividend + ( Closing price - Opening price ) ] / Opening price

           = [ 2.34 + ( 46.45 - 45 ) ] / 45
           = 8.42% Answer

Question 14

Required return = [ { D0 * ( 1 + g ) } / P0 ] + g

0.16 = [ { 2 * ( 1 + g ) } / 69 ] + g

0.16 = [ ( 2 + 2g + 69g ) / 69 ]

71g = 9.04

g = 9.04 / 71

g = 12.73% Answer

Question 15

Beta = Change in stock / Change on Market

Month Change in stock Change in Market Change in stock / Change in Market
1 1.5% 1.1%

1.5%/1.1%

2 2% 1.4%

2%/1.4%

= 1.43

3 -2.5% -2.0% -

2.5%/-2.0%

= 1.25

Thus, beta is greater than 1.

Option A is correct.
