    The expected market risk premium is 9.20%

    Explanation:

    In order to calculate the expected market risk premium we would have to calculate the following formula:

    expected market risk premium = (Rs-Rf) / β

    Rf=3.7%

    β=1.28

    Rs=15.47%

    expected market risk premium = (15.47%-3.7%) / 1.28

    expected market risk premium=9.20%

    The expected market risk premium is 9.20%
