Respuesta :

Answer:

Beta= 1.05

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A two-stock portfolio is equally invested in stocks with betas of 1.4 and 0.7.

To calculate the Beta of the portfolio, we need to use the following formula:

Beta= (proportion of investment A*beta A) + (proportion of investment B*beta B)

Beta= (0.5*1.4) + (0.5*0.7)

Beta= 1.05
