C) 8.5%. D) 13.8%. The correct answer was D) RRStock = Rf + (RMarket - Rf) * BetaStock, where RR= required return, R = return, and Rf = risk-free rate Here, RRStock = 6 + (12 - 6) * 1.3 = 6 + 7.8 = 13.8%. 22.What is the required rate of return for a stock with a beta of 1.2, when the risk-free rate is 6 percent and the market is offering 12 percent?
