Answer: 36% increase in quantity demanded.

Explanation:

Price Elasticity shows the change in quantity demanded when there is a change in price.

Change in Quantity demanded = Price elasticity * Change in price.

Change in price using midpoint formula;

= \frac{New price - Old Price}{\frac{New Price + Old Price }{2} } \\\\= \frac{4,000 - 6,000}{\frac{4,000 + 6,000 }{2} } \\\\= \frac{-2,000}{5,000} \\\\= -0.4

Change in Quantity demanded = -0.9 * -0.4

= 0.36

= 36% increase

Lapatulllka [165]

If a  portfolio is comprised of two stocks. Stock A comprises 65% of the portfolio and has a beta of 1.21. The portfolio beta is 1.119.

<h3>Portfolio beta</h3>

Using this formula

Portfolio beta=(Stock A portfolio×beta)+[(1-Stock A porfolio)× Stock B beta]

Let plug in the formula

βp = (.65 × 1.21) + [(1 - .65) × .95]

βp = (.7865) + [.35 × .95]

βp= .7865+ .3325

βp = 1.119

Therefore the portfolio beta is 1.119.
