Solution :
i. We have fR nominal = realR inf lation= 3 + 6.5= 9.5%
mR = 15% (it is important to know that this is also nominal i.e it includes 6.5%)
Market Risk Premium m fR R= 15 - 9.5 = 5.5%
SML e f m fR R R R β eR 9.5 5.5β
ii. Now, inflation premium = 7.5% f no min alR 3 7.5%
= 10.5%
mR = 15 + 1 = 16%
m fR R = 16 - 10.5= 5.5% (Same as earlier)
New SML= eR = 10.5 + 5.5
iii. New m fR R = 5.5 + 20% of 5.5= 6.6%
SML = eR 9.5 5.5β
iv. eR 10.5 6.6β
Note : The whole purpose of the above e.g. was to tell you that when inflationchanges, m fR R will not change.

Now putting the value of m fR R in equation (I)
14 = fR 1.75 3.478
