Summary Introduction
To calculate: The value of beta of the portfolio.
Introduction: The beta value is useful while calculating the systematic risk of the portfolio. It measures the arise risk of the market due to movement. In general the beta value should be unity for the assets. Low beta value represents the unpredictable investment.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1PS
The beta value is 1.5 for the portfolio.
Explanation of Solution
Given that the expected return rate
= 1.5
Hence the beta value is 1.5 for the portfolio.
