Answer:
14%
Explanation:
The expected return on security is 15.8%
The stock beta is 1.2
The risk free interest rate is 5%
Therefore the expected market return can be calculated as follows
15.8= 5 × 1.2mrp
15.8-5= 1.2MRP
10.8= 1.2MRP
Mrp= 10.8/1.2
= 9%
Expected market return= 5% + 9%
= 14%
Hence the expected market return is 14%
