beta of 0.90, 35% of stock B with a beta of 1.05, 30% of stock C
with a beta of 1.73, and 15% of cash?
The beta of the portfolio is computed as shown below:
= Beta of stock A x weight of stock A + Beta of stock B x weight of stock B + Beta of stock C x weight of stock C + Beta of cash x weight of cash
= 0.90 x 0.20 + 1.05 x 0.35 + 1.73 x 0.30 + 0 x 0.15
= 1.0665
