Suppose that the index model for stocks A and B is estimated from excess returns with the following results:
RA
=
3.0% +1.05RM + еA
RB
=-1.2% +1.20RM + еB
ƠM = 29%; R-square A = 0.29; R-squareB = 0.14
What is the covariance between each stock and the market index?
Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Calculate using numbers NOT in decimal form. For example use "20" for calculation
if standard deviation is provided as 20%. Round your answers to nearest whole number.
