    the answer is 7%

    Explanation:

    If we estimate the beta as a proportion between the expected risk - free rate and the expected market value, we obtain 4%/16%=25%

    b=0.25 r=?

    r_m=0.16

    r_ref=0.04

    then we use the CAPM Model

    r=r_ref + b (r_m-r_ref)

    r = 0.04+0.25 * (0.16-0.04) = 0.07
