Answer:

B. difference between the return on the market and the risk-free rate

Explanation:

In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below

Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)

where,

(Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)  = Market risk premium

And all things remain constant.
