    17%

    Explanation:

    We know that the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula would be

    Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta * (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

    where,

    (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) = Market risk premium

    20.36% - 3.36% = Market risk premium

    So, the market risk premium would be 17%
