    Generally, investors seek to be compensated in two ways: time value of money and risk. The time value of money is expressed by risk-free (rf) rate in the formula as shown in Figure 2, it compensates investors for putting capital in investments over a period of time. The formula also calculates the amount of return an investor should expect for taking an additional risk. The model relies on a risk multiplier called the beta coefficient, that compares the returns of an asset to the market over a duration to the market premium (Rm-rf). Simply put, the CAPM states that investors can expect to obtain a risk-free rate along with a ‘market risk premium’ multiplied by their amount of risk exposure (Dempsey, 2012).
