Explanation: C) Security "Z" is the risk-free asset since its return is constant regardless of the market. Therefore the risk-free rate is the return on security Z which is 4%. The expected return on the market rate is .50(24%) + .50(-8%) = 8%. Using the CAPM, the return on this security is .04 + 1.2(.08 - .04) = 8.8%
