The CAPM Model (or more correctly just CAPM) is a model applied to indicate an investor's "expected return", or how much percentage profit a company investor ought to logically demand to be a "fair" return for making investmentsinto a company.
To find this, yet another question can be queried: Just how much is the sound "decent" percentage % profit that a financier should probably receive if he invests in a business (having comparatively high risk)in contrast to putting his money in government bonds which might be regarded to be "risk free" and instead of putting his hard earned cash in the generalshare market presumed to offer "medium" risk?
Visibly, it is almost only "fair" that in fact the investor receives a gain higher compared to the government bond percentage (due to the reason that the solitary enterprise possesses higher risk). It's moreover only just that he should expect a return larger than the broad stock exchange yield, because the specific business enterprise has higher risk compared to the "medium risk" general stock market. So just as before,how much exactly should this investor fairly receive as a smallest expected return?
This is where the CAPM Model or Capital Asset Pricing Model comes in. The CAPM Formula includes all these variables simultaneously: riskiness of the individual firm depicted by its "beta", riskiness of the universal stock market, rate of interest a "risk free" government bond would give, as well as others... and then spits out an actual percent which your investor "should be allowed" to take for investing his or her hard earned money into this "riskier" single firm.
This particularly exact percent is known as the "expected return", given that it can be the yield that he should "expect" or require to obtain if he invests his hard earned cash into a specific firm. This precise percentage is known as the "cost of equity".

The CAPM Model or CAPM Formula looks something like this:
Expected Return =
Govt. Bond Rate + (Risk represented by "Beta")(General Stock Market Return --Govt. Bond Rate)

Utilizing this formula, you are able to see the theoretically exact rate of return theindividual business enterprise investor ought to reasonably expect for his or her investment, if the CAPM Model or Capital Asset Pricing Model is to be held. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWsEJYPSw0k

  • Really well done and you made it look so easy a child could understand it. To the snobby folks that commented below about how easy this is. YES it's easy to anyone that understands it already, and those people shouldn't watch this. Everyone needs to learn it the first time, even the most amazing business people weren't born knowing CAPM!
