This statement is false because an asset is considered overvalued if its market price is higher than its intrinsic value, regardless of its estimated rate of return. The required rate of return is only one factor that contributes to the intrinsic value of an asset, so it cannot be the sole criterion for determining whether an asset is overvalued or undervalued.
