The market price of a security is $50. Its expected rate of return is 13%. The risk-free rate is 4% and the market risk premium is 6%. What will be the market price of the security if its beta doubles (and all other variables remain unchanged)? Assume that the stock is expected to pay a constant dividend in perpetuity.

New Market price =$29.55

Explanation:

Using the   CAPM,Capital Asset Pricing Model CAPM formule ,  The expected return on stock is given as

Er = Rf +β( Mr)

which means

Expected return = Risk free rate + beta (market risk premium)

13%= 4% +beta (6%)

beta= 13%-4%/6%=0.13-0.04 /0.06

beta= 1.5

The dividend expected  to be paid is given as

Expected dividend, D = Price of security X Expected return

= 50 X 13%

= $6.5

Now, if beta doubles, Expected return becomes

Er = Rf + 2β( Mr)  

Er= 4% + 2 x 1.5( 6%)

=4%+ 3.0( 6%)

0.04 + 0.18

Er = 0.22 = 22%

New Market price

Expected dividend, D = Price of security X Expected return

Price = Expected dividend, D/Expected return

= $6.5/0.22

=$29.55

typically a loft will include modern kitchen and bathrooms, this increases the price tag. lofts also have a good amount of open space, this requires more heating and electricity. lofts are also in older buildings, this means that maintaining the location increases the bill. keep in mind this is without talking about the high state and property taxes.

i hope this you! : )
