What does the capital market line (CML) indicate? correct answers that the market portfolio
maximizes the Sharpe ratio
What is the CML invested in correct answers the risk-free asset and the market portfolio

CML
When you own a single stock, what kind of risk are you exposed to? correct answers Firm
specific risk
Systematic risk
What is the risk of an asset held in isolation measured by correct answers variance of returns
What is the risk of an asset held in a portfolio measured by correct answers its covariance of

exactly get this one i thought mkt beta was = 1 help)
What kind of risk do assets on the CML have? (other than Rf) correct answers systematic risk
only
If an asset is correctly priced in CAPM equilibrium what do we know about the E(r) and
standard deviation? correct answers E(r) - same as risk free rate
σ - greater than the market
In CAPM equilibrium what do we know about assets that plot on the CML and SML? correct
answers Every asset that plots on the CML also plots on the SML
If an asset has a beta of 1 in CAPM equilibrium, what do we know about it's price? correct
answers it is correctly priced
If an asset has a beta of 1 in CAPM equilibrium, how is it correlated to the market correct
answers perfectly correlated
What do we know about the Sharpe ratio of assets that are perfectly correlated with the market?
correct answers Their Sharpe ratio is maximized
What is a factor model used for? correct answers - estimate E(r), variances and covariances
, - partition risk into factor and non-factor components
- calculate ex-post alpha and beta
assumptions of single factor model correct answers - cov(ei,ej) = 0
- E(ei) = 0
The right price is the price that provides correct answers the correct E(r)
What does CAPM tell you? correct answers The correct E(r) which is the same as k (required
return)

What does total risk cause? correct answers variance
What does a SIM allow us to find? correct answers Ex post CAPM alpha and beta
