答案和详解如下:

Question 91 

The correct answer was D) 10.2%. 

Use the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) to find the required rate of return. The approximate risk-free rate of interest is 5% (2% real risk-free rate + 3% inflation premium).

k = 5% + 1.3(4%) = 10.2%.

Question 92 

The correct answer was C) Market efficiency assumes that individual market participants correctly estimate asset prices. 

Market efficiency does not assume that individual market participants correctly estimate asset prices, but does assume that their estimates are unbiased. That is, some agents will over-estimate and some will under-estimate, but they will be correct, on average.

Question 93 

The correct answer was A) Changes in politics and regulation tend to affect the economy as a whole rather than particular industries. 

Politics and regulation can have significant effects on particular industries. For example, increasing import duties on steel benefits domestic steel producers but increases costs for industries that use steel.

Question 94 

The correct answer was B) $62.50. 

The preferred dividend is 0.075($50) = $3.75. The value of the preferred = $3.75 / 0.06 = $62.50.

Question 95 

The correct answer was C) Results of trading rule tests, such as filter rules, support the semi-strong form of the EMH. 

Results of trading rule tests, such as filter rules, support the weak form of the EMH.

The other choices are true. Tests show that professional money managers perform no better than a random buy and hold strategy. This supports the strong form EMH contention that stock prices reflect all information, public and private. (Aside from corporate insiders and specialists, no group has monopolistic access to information that would result in superior returns.)
