1. Suppose two factors are identified for the U.S. economy: the growth rate of industrial production, IP, and the inflation rate, IR. IP is expected to be 5% and IR 5%. A stock with a beta of 1 on IP and 0.7 on IR currently is expected to provide a rate of return of 10%. If industrial production actually grows by 6%, while the inflation rate turns out to be 6%, what is your best guess for the rate of return on the stock? (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)
