Explain the three types of risk and beta, and how these concepts relate to a company’s required rate of return.
Find your company’s beta from a credible source.
You can get this information from the Mergent database or by looking it up on a financial website like Yahoo! Finance (Links to an external site.).
Compare your company’s beta to the market beta of 1.0.
Calculate the company-specific required rate of return using the CAPM formula.
Show all calculations.
Use the beta you determined for your chosen company
Use a risk-free rate of 2.0%.
For the market risk premium, use the following assumptions:
For a large capitalization company (greater than $10.0 billion in market capitalization) use 6.0% as the market risk premium.
For a mid-cap company (between $2.0 billion and $10.0 billion in market capitalization) use 8.0% as the market risk premium.
For a small-cap company (less than $2.0 billion in market capitalization) use 11.0% as the market risk premium.
Compare the company-specific required rate of return you calculated to the required return based on size you used in Section 3: Dividend Analysis and Preliminary Valuation in Week 3 for the constant growth formula.
Determine whether the company-specific required rate of return higher or lower than the rate of return based on size that you used in Section 3 in Week 3 for the constant growth formula?
