Sharpe-Lintner-Black‚ the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) has been subject to criticism‚ appraisal and continuous efforts for improvement‚ such as the Reward Beta approach (Bornholt‚ 2007)‚ conditional CAPM or the consumption CAPM. The Dichotomous Asset Pricing Model (DAPM)‚ introduced by Professor Liang Zou at the Universiteit van Amsterdam‚ brings a fresh approach to asset pricing and contributes significantly to enhancing the over-disputed CAPM. The model manages to combine mean-variance (MV) and

Bodie‚ Kane‚ Marcus‚ Perrakis and Ryan‚ Chapter 7 Answers to Selected Problems 1. What is the beta of a portfolio with E[rp ] = 18 percent‚ if rf = 6 percent and E[rM ] = 14 percent? Answer: Using the CAPM equilibrium condition‚ E[rp ] = rf + βp E[rM ] − rf ⇒ βp = E[rp ] − rf .18 − .06 = 1.5 . = E[rM ] − rf .14 − .06 2. The market price of a security is $50. Its expected return is 14 percent. The risk-free rate is 6 percent and the market risk premium is 8.5 percent. What will be the market

up the total of all the debt on the balance sheet. The market value of equity is the "Market Cap‚" and equals the number of (common) shares outstanding multiplied by the price/share. The variable ks represents the cost of common equity. The CAPM can be used for this variable. The weights (wd and was - note that: wd + was = 1; so you only have to calculate one of them). We need to calculate the weight of debt and the weight of equity. In other words‚ what portion of the company’s financing

the most recent beta estimate should be used because it is more relevant to the current cost of equity. Furthermore‚ the market values‚ not the book values‚ of debt and equity‚ should be used to correctly weight the capital components. 2) Using CAPM: a. The market free rate is 5.74%‚ which is the longest US Treasury Yield forecast. We used this rate because WACC is used for long-term projects and therefore‚ the longest treasury rate should also be used. b. The market risk premium is the geometric

Suppose also that the expected rate of return required by the market for a portfolio with a beta of 1 is 12%. According to the CAPM: a) What is the expected rate of return on the market portfolio? b) What would be the expected rate of return on a stock with β = 0? c) Suppose you consider buying a stock which does not pay a dividend.

The purpose of this QCS is to help you review the material on tests of the CAPM and other multifactor models and to illustrate the frequently used two-pass regression approach to testing asset pricing models such as the CAPM and other multi-factor models. As you have seen in the lectures the procedure involves running two regressions. In the first step a time-series regression to calculate factor loadings or betas and in the second step a cross-sectional regression of returns on loadings. This QCS
