A share has an expected return of 10%, the risk-free rate is 3%, and the market risk premium is 3.5%. If the share is correctly priced, what must the beta of this share be?
We will use the CAPM model. As per the CAPM model: expected return = risk free rate + (beta * market risk premium)
Thus 10% = 3% + (beta * 3.5%)
Or 7% = beta * 3.5%
Or beta = 7%/3.5%
