Mikkelson Corporation's stock had a required return of 12.50% last year, when the risk-free rate was 3% and the market risk premium was 4.75%. Then an increase in investor risk aversion caused the market risk premium to rise by 2%. The risk-free rate and the firm's beta remain unchanged. What is the company's new required rate of return? (Hint: First calculate the beta, then find the required return.) Do not round your intermediate calculations.

The Grunewald Company has developed the following data regarding the rates of return potential stock and the market: State of the Economy Probability of Each Rates Return If State Occurs State Occurring Stock Market Deep Recession 20% -30% -30% Mild recession 30% -20% -20% Average 20% -20% 15% Mild boom 20% -20% 25% Strong boom 10% -20% 25% Calculate the correlation between stock A and the market. Calculate the probability that stock A's return is lower than negative 8%, that is P(K < -8%) = ? Calculate the probability that stock A's return is between -8% and 15%, that is P(-8% < K < 15%) = ?
