Answer:

4%

Explanation:

In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

= 6% - 0.2 × (16% - 6%)

= 6% - 0.2 × 10%

= 6% - 2%

= 4%

The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)  is also known as market risk premium
