Answer:

B. 3.7%

Explanation:

As per the CAPM, Expected return = Risk-free rate + Beta*(Expected return on the market - Risk-free rate)

Expected return% = 5% + 1.1% * (8% - 5%)

Expected return% = 5% + 1.1% *3%

Expected return% = 5% + 3.3%

Expected return% = 8.3 %

The alpha of the stock = Excess return

Excess return = 12% - 8.3%

Excess return = 3.7%
