a) Using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), determine whether the following stock (for each stock) is overvalued or undervalued. Given risk-free rate = Rf = 6%, market portfolio return = E (rm) = 15% and expected returns and expected betas are as follows (please show working calculation in word format/ excel)
| Stock | Expected Returns | Expected Beta |
| O | 14% | 1.20 |
| P | 15% | 0.75 |
| Q | 13% | 1.50 |
| R | 20% | 1.60 |
| S | 10% | 0.80 |
b) An investment company manages an equity fund consisting of five stocks with the following market values and betas.
| Stock | Market Value | Beta |
| K | RM100,000 | 1.10 |
| L | RM25,000 | 1.20 |
| M | RM50,000 | 0.75 |
| N | RM125,000 | 0.60 |
| O | RM165,000 | 1.30 |
Assuming risk-free rate = Rf = 7% and market portfolio return = E (rm)= 14%. What is the portfolio's expected return? (please show working calculation in word format/ excel)
