Suppose Binder corporatio's common stock has a return of 17.61 percent. The risk-free rate is 3.68 percent, the market return is 12.4 percent and there is no unsystematic risk affecting Binder's return. Given the one-factor arbitrage pricing model, what is the factor beta

1.597

Explanation:

The computation of the factor beta using the one-factor arbitrage pricing model is shown below:

As we know that

= (Expected rate of return - risk-free rate of return) ÷ (market rate of return-risk-free rate of return)

= (17.61% - 3.68%) ÷ (12.4% - 3.68%)

= 1.597

We simply applied the above formula to determine the factor beta and the same is to be considered
