    Answer: ER (P) = Rf + β (Rm - Rf)

    ER (P) = 7 + 1 (13-7)

    ER (P) = 7 + 6

    ER (P) = 13%

    Explanation: According to capital asset pricing model, the expected return on a portfolio is a function of risk free rate and market risk premium. Market risk premium is the product of Beta (market risk) and risk premium ie β (Rm-Rf)
