【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】
Stock A: kA=8%+1.5×7%=18.5%. Because the estimated return of 15.0% is less than the required return of 18.5%, Stock A is overvalued.
Stock B: kB=8%+1.1×7%=15.7%. Because the estimated return of 15.7% equals the required return of 15.7%, Stock B is properly valued.
Stock C: kC=8%+0.6×7%=12.2%. Because the estimated return of 14.2% is greater than the required return of 12.2%, Stock C is undervalued.
