Answer: Stock T has a beta of 1.82

Explanation:

GIVEN the following:

PORTFOLIO:

Weight of each stock in portfolio :

Stock R(wR) = 11% = 0.11

Stock S(wS) = 56% = 0.56

Stock T(wT) = 1 - (Stock R + Stock S)

BETA value:

Stock R(bR) = 0.84

Stock S(bS) = 1.39

Portfolio Beta(Pb) = 1.47

Stock T(bT) =?

Portfolio Beta(Pb) is calculated using the formula :

Pb = WeightA×BetaA + WeightB×BetaB +.... WeightN×BetaN

Stock T = 1 - (0.11 + 0.56)

Stock T(wT) = 1 - 0.67 = 0.33

For this question, portfolio Beta =

Pb = (wR × bR) + (wS × bS) + (wT × bT)

1.47 = (0.11 × 0.84) + (0.56 × 1.39) + (0.33 × bT)

1.47 = 0.0924 + 0.7784 + (0.33 × bT)

1.47 = 0.8708 + (0.33 × bT)

1.47 - 0.8708 = 0.33 × bT

0.5992 = 0.33 × bT

bT = 1.8157

bT = 1.82

Answer:

The beta of stock T is 1.82

Explanation:

The portfolio beta is made up of the weighted average of the individual stock betas in the portfolio.

The formula for portfolio beta is,

Portfolio beta = wA * beta of A + wB * beta of B + ... + wX * beta of X

The weight of stock T in the portfolio is = 1 - (0.11 + 0.56)   = 0.33 or 33%

Let beta of Stock T be x. The beta of Stock T is:

1.47 = 0.11 * 0.84  +  0.56 * 1.39  +  0.33 * x

1.47 = 0.0924 + 0.7784 + 0.33x

1.47 - 0.0924 - 0.7784 = 0.33x

0.5992 / 0.33 = x

x = 1.815 rounded off to 1.82

Luden [163]

Answer:

The price of tee times needs to be decreased by 6.67%.

Explanation:

The manager wants to increase the number of tee times sold by 10 percent.

The price elasticity of demand for tee times is –1.5.

Percentage change in price of tee times to increase the demand by 10%

Price elasticity of demand = \frac{\% \Delta Q}{\% \Delta P}

-1.5 = \frac{10 \%}{\% \Delta P}

\% \Delta P = \frac{10}{-1.5}\% \Delta P = -6.67 \%
