Beta of a portfolio is weighted average of the beta of constituents.
Beta of portfolio = w1 * beta1 + w2 * beta2
Beta of portfolio = 50% * 1.3 + 50% * .60
Beta of portfolio = 0.95

A portfolio has 50% invested in stock A and the rest invested in stock B. If stock A has a beta of 2.0 and stock B has a beta of 0.6, what’s the beta of the portfolio?
26) A portfolio has 40% invested in stock A and the rest invested in stock B. If stock A has a beta of 1.3 and stock B has a beta of 0.9, what’s the beta of the portfolio? 27) Calculate the standard deviation of a portfolio that contains 40% of one stock with a standard deviation of 27% and 60% of another stock with a standard deviation of 13% and the correlation of their stock returns is 0.9. (Enter your...
You form a portfolio of stocks. Stock A has a beta of 0.9, Stock B has a beta of 1.8, and Stock C has a beta of 1.3. If 13% of your portfolio is invested in stock A, and 45% of your stock is invested in Stock B, what is your portfolio beta? (Enter your response to two decimal places ex: 1.23)
One portfolio has three securities. Stock A accounts for 50% with beta =1, stock B accounts for 10% with beta 50% lower than market beta and stock C accounts for the rest with beta 20% higher than the market average. What is the systematic risk of such a portfolio?
You own a portfolio that has 60% invested in Stock X and 40% invested in Stock Y. Assume the expected returns on these stocks are 13% and 18%, respectively. What is the expected return on the portfolio? A portfolio has a beta of 0.6. The risk-free rate is 2% and the expected return on the market is 12%. What is the expected return on the portfolio? A bond has a $1,000 par value, 10 years to maturity, a 5% coupon...
Stock A has a beta of 0.7, whereas Stock B has a beta of 1.3. Portfolio P has 50% invested in both A and B. Which of the following would occur if the market risk premium increased by 1% but the risk-free rate remained constant? a. The required return on Portfolio P would remain unchanged. b. The required return on Stock A would increase by more than 1%, while the return on Stock B would increase by less than 1%....
An individual has $30,000 invested in a stock with a beta of 0.6 and another $40,000 invested in a stock with a beta of 1.5. If these are the only two investments in his portfolio, what is his portfolio beta? a. 1.11 b. 0.80 c. 4.03 d. 1.05 e. 0.99
Calculate the beta for Stock B. Consider a portfolio that is one-third invested in Stock A and one-third invested in Stock B, as well as, one-third invested in a risk-free asset. Stock A has a beta of 1.54. The total portfolio parallels the risk to the market. Download the linked spreadsheet template and use it for your answer.
