A 8.00% 8.80%
B 6.86% 9.70%
C 15.00% 13.00%
D 12.50% 11.50%
From the above table table, it can be seen that asset A and Asset B have underperformed as compared to the return estimated by CAPM. This can be due to error is estimation of CAPM factors. CAPM uses beta for calculation of expected return. In case there is error in beta estimated, the CAPM shall provide incorrect return.
