    1.575%

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    A stock has a return = 16.9 percent,

    Standard deviation = 11.7 percent

    Beta = 1.50

    Risk-free rate = 2.65 percent

    market risk premium = 8.45 percent

    Jenson' Alpha:

    = Expected Return - [Risk Free Rate + (Beta * Market Risk Premium) ]

    = 16.9 - [2.65 + (1.50 * 8.45) ]

    = 1.575%

    Therefore, the Jensen alpha of this stock is 1.575%.
