    Sir Im a self study student and I absolutely fear this paper..pls help me with this question

    the question says that 75% equity and 80 % debt is to finance other activities so when calculating the asset beta why cant we take 25% of equity and 20% of debt and then calculate the asset beta
    thanks alot!

    No. It is the equity that carries the risk. 75% is attributed to other activities and therefore 25% is component production.

    Sir can you also explain me why do we have to calculate WACC when we have already used the capm formula…is 14.4% not the cost of capital?

    The CAPM formula gives the cost of equity, not the WACC.

    You really should watch my free lectures on CAPM 🙂
