Recommended or modified portfolio would be
Stock | Investment allocation | Beta | Standard deviation |
AT | 20% | 1.4 | .57% |
LSC | 15% | 1.1 | .60% |
TF | 65% | .50 | .64% |
New portfolio beta can be calculated as the sum of the weighted average of securities as
Portfolio beta = w1×b1 + w2×b2 + w3×b3
=.20×1.4 + .15×1.1 + .65×.500
= 0.7700
Old portfolio beta = 0.858
Required return on old portfolio = Rf + Beta(Risk premium)
= 6 + .858 × 7.50
= 12.4350
Required return on modified portfolio = Rf + Beta(Risk premium)
= 6 + .7700 × 7.5
= 11.7750
Change in required return will be = 12.4350 - 11.7750
= .6600
Thus the required return would decline by 0.6600
Since juanita expects the returns to be higher than the required returns, he might have thought the portfolio to be undervalued.
If shares of Atteric Inc. got replaced with the shares of company X with higher beta than Atteric inc., the portfolio required return would increase to compensate investors for the higher risk resulted from higher beta.
