Answer:

Ke 0.08690 = 8.69%

Explanation:

The capital assets price model formula(CAPM) is as follows:

[tex]Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)[/tex]  

risk free       = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04

market rate = 11% = 11/100 = 0. 11

premium market: (market rate - risk free) = (0.11-0.04) = 0.07

Beta(non diversifiable risk) 0.67

[tex]Ke= 0.04 + 0.67 (0.07)[/tex]  

Ke 0.08690
