What is the risk-free rate if the expected return is 20.4 and beta is 1.6 and expected market return is 15?

Expected market return = risk free + beta*(market return - risk free) So by putting in values: 20.4 = rf+ 1.6(15-rf) expected market return = risk free + beta*(market return - risk free) So by putting in values: 20.4 = rf+ 1.6(15-rf) where rf = risk free 20.4 - 24 = rf - 1.6rf 3.6 = -0.6rf rf = 6.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
