If the risk-free interest rate is 6% and the expected return of the market portfolio is 11.5%, what is the expected return of a portfolio that consists of 55% Autodesk stock and 45% Costco stock. according to the CAPM? The expected return is \%. (Round to two decimal places.)
Calculation of the expected return (ER) on Autodesk stockER on Autodesk stock = RFR + Beta X (ERM - RFR)= 6% + 2.15 x (11.5% - 6%)= 6% + 2.15 x 5.5%= 6% + 11.825%= 17.825%Expected return on Auto Desk = 17.825%
