One more asset pricing model question...

    In Arbitrage Pricing Theory, we are given:
    Ri = E[Ri] + Sum(ßi × fij) + €i

    How does this translate into the standard p(t) = E[m(t+1) × x(t+1)] formula? In particular, how do we get m(t+1) and x(t+1)?

    Seems to me that all the core reading is telling me is
    E[Ri]=E[Ri]
    and the non-core reading says
    m(t+1) = a + b' × f(t+1)
    which makes it look identical to the intertemporal capital asset pricing model, perhaps with different 'factors'.

    Is that all there is to it?
