    The expected return on a portfolio is 14.30%

    Explanation:

    CAPM : It is used to described the risk of various types of securities which is invested to get a better return. Mainly it is deals in financial assets.

    For computing the expected rate of return of a portfolio, the following formula is used which is shown below:

    Under the Capital Asset Pricing Model, The expected rate of return is equals to

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

    = 8% + 0.7 * (17% - 8%)

    = 8% + 0.7 * 9%

    = 8% + 6.3%

    = 14.30%

    The risk free rate is also known as zero beta portfolio so we use the value in risk free rate also.

    Hence, the expected return on a portfolio is 14.30%
