Nelson Enterprises, an all-equity firm, has a beta of 2.5. Nelson’s chief financial officer is evaluating a project with an expected return of 27% before any risk adjustment. The risk-free rate is 6%, and the market risk premium is 8%. The project being evaluated is riskier than Nelson’s average project, in terms of both its beta risk and its total risk. Which of the following statements is correct?

The accept/reject decision depends on the firm’s risk-adjustment policy. If Nelson’s policy is to increase the required return on a riskier-than-average project to 4% over rs, then it should reject the project.


The project should definitely be rejected because its expected return (before risk adjustments) is less than its required return.


Riskier-than-average projects should have their expected returns increased to reflect their higher risk. Clearly, this would make the project acceptable regardless of the amount of the adjustment.


The project should definitely be accepted because its expected return (before any risk adjustments) is greater than its required return.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
