Respuesta :

Answer:

10.125%

Explanation:

The formula to compute the expected return on the asset is shown below:

Expected return on the asset = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

= 3.25% + 1.25 × 5.5%

= 3.25% + 6.875%

= 10.125%

The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also known as the market risk premium and the same is used in the computation part
