How is beta calculated in CAPM?

Answer» ERI = Rf + βi (ERm- Rf)

Eri = Expected return of investment or security
Rf = Risk-free rate
βi = Beta of the investment or security
ERm = Expected return of the market
(ERm - Rf) = Market risk premium


Beta measures the risks in the STOCKS that have been INVESTED. If a stock is RISKIER than the market, then the beta will be higher than one. If a stock has less risk, then the beta will be less than one.
