Answer:

0.68

Explanation:

A portfolio consists of an investment of $7,500

The amount of common stock is 20

The portfolio beta is 0.65

Suppose one of the stock in the portfolio is sold with a beta of 1.0 for $7,500

The proceeds realized is then used to purchase another stock with a beta of 1.50

The first step is the to calculate the change in beta

Change in beta= 1.50-1

= 0.5

The next step is to divide the change in beta by the number of common stock

= 0.5/20

= 0.025

Therefore, the new beta can be calculated as follows

= 0.65+0.025

= 0.68

Hence the new portfolio's beta is 0.68

vlabodo [156]

Expected profit is the probability of receiving a profit multiplied by the profit

Moderate = 10,000 * .60 = 6,000

Recession = -50,000 * .10= -5,000

Add those up, and you should expect a profit of around 16,000

Direct labor (38,000units × $2 per unit) ($76,000)

Variable overhead (38,000units × $1 per unit) ($38,000)
