The index model has been estimated using historical excess return data for stocks A, B, and C, with the following results:
RA = 0.02 + 0.9RM + eA
RB = 0.04 + 1.2RM + eB
RC = 0.10 + 1.0RM + eC
M = 0.22
(eA) = 0.21
(eB ) = 0.11
(eC ) = 0.23
a. What are the standard deviations of stocks A, B, and C? (1.5 marks)
b. Break down the variances of stocks A, B, and C into their systematic and firm-specific components. (1.5 marks)
