Answer:

6.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Capital asset pricing model measure the expected return on an asset or investment. it is used to make decision for addition of specific investment in a well diversified portfolio.

As per given data

Expected return = 13.8%

Market Risk premium = Mrp = 4.8%

Investment beta = [tex]\beta[/tex] = 1.5

Formula for CAPM

Expected return = Risk free rate + beta ( market risk premium )

Expected Return = Rf + [tex]\beta[/tex] ( Mrp)

As we have the expected return, we need to calculate the the risk free rate.

13.6% = Rf + 1.5 ( 4.8% )

13.6% = Rf + 7.2%

Rf = 13.6% - 7.2%

Rf = 6.4%
