    11.5%

    Explanation:

    The computation of the return on the market portfolio is shown below:

    As we know that

    Alpha = Average return - [risk free return + beta (return on market portfolio - risk free return) ]

    0.01 = 0.14 - [0.04 + 1.2 (return on market portfolio - 0.04) ]

    0.01 = 0.14 - [0.04 + 1.2 return on market portfolio - 0.048]

    0.01 = 0.14 - 0.04 - 1.2 return on market portfolio + 0.048

    1.2 return on market portfolio = 0.14 - 0.04 + 0.048 - 0.01

    1.2 return on market portfolio = 0.138

    So, the return on the market portfolio is

    = 0.138 : 1.2

    = 11.5%
