Answer:

portfolio's new beta is 1.25

Explanation:

Total number of stocks available in the portfolio = 15

Total portfolio = 1.20

Beta of stock to be sold = 0.8

Beta of stock to be purchased = 1.6

Weight of one stock (replacing stock) = 1/15

New portfolio beta = Total portfolio - (Weight * Beta of selling stock) + (Weight * Beta of purchasing stock)

New portfolio beta = 1.20 - [(1/15) * 0.8] + [(1/15) * 1.6]

                               = 1.20 - 0.05333 + 0.10667

                               = 1.25334

                               ≈ 1.25

Option C is correct because nowadays every company desires to recruit people who are change oriented thinkers. The reason is that the future is of the companies that think out of box. So company is not an individual person, they always require people like us to explore, find and reform the company on a regular bases. I think you know about Kodak, a traditional camera and camera film producer which went near to bankrupt because the company didn't opted to digital cameras which resulted in loss of its market share. So adopting change in companies is as vital as vitamins in human life.
