Question

the following table for portfolios of Asset W and a risk-free asset. (Leave no cells blan to enter wherever required. Do not round intermediate calculations. Enteryour Asset W has an expected return of 11.4 percent and a beta of 1.40 If the risk-free rate is 3.7 p expected returns as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16, and your beta a 3 decimal places, e.g.. 32.161.) n Asset W Expected Return Beta 0% 25 50 75 100 125 150 between portfolio expected return and porfolio beta, what is the slope of the line that results? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Slope of the line

Explanation / Answer

Part - A

Slope of the line

=Risk Free Rate + Beta(Rm-Rf)

=3.70+1.40(11.40-10.78)

=14.48%
