    The required rate of return on this equity is 16.15 percent

    Explanation:

    Using the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) the required rate of return on an asset can be calculated. The equation for the required rate of return under this model is,

    r = rRF + β * (rpM)

    Where,

    rRF is the riskfree or tbill rate β is the stock's beta rpM is the market risk premium

    Thus for Hoogle, the required rate of return is:

    r = 2.5% + 1.95 * 7% = 16.15
