The CAPM Method for the expected return I have given you monthly returns for the stock market, Google, and the three-month treasury (risk-free rate). 1) Run the regression to estimate the beta of Google and report the ouput in a new worksheet. 2)Draw the security characteristic line equation (SCL) using the regression output and write the SCL. 3) Suppose that the risk free rate is 0.15% and the market expected return is 0.50%. Using the beta from Question 1), figure out the expected return for Google based on the CAPM framework.
