Answer:

c. 1.29

Explanation:

Change in portfolio beta = weight * (change in security beta) = .125 * (1.35-1) = .04375

New portfolio beta = 1.25 + .04375 = 1.29375 (c. 1.29 is the correct answer )

Answer: -0.24

Explanation:

The portfolio beta is a weighted average of the betas of the individual stocks in it.

The portfolio beta before the replacement is;

= (1.4 * 150,000/375,000) + (0.8 * 50,000/375,000) + ( 1 * 100,000/375,000) + (75,000 * 75,000/375,000)

= 0.56 + 0.11 + 0.27 + 0.24

= 1.17

After the replacement, portfolio beta will be;

=  (0.75 * 150,000/375,000) + (0.8 * 50,000/375,000) + ( 1 * 100,000/375,000) + (75,000 * 75,000/375,000)

= 0.32 + 0.11 + 0.27 + 0.24

= 0.93

The change is therefore;

= 0.93 - 1.17

= -0.24

Give the human resource and it law​
Maslowich

Human resources (HR) professionals are responsible for strategically managing employees within an organization while remaining compliant with laws that govern employee rights and employer obligations. If an organization violates these complex and ever-changing regulations, it exposes itself to risk, including lawsuits, financial losses, and reputation damage.

Since non-compliance can result in such serious consequences, there is a strong demand for industry workers who possess knowledge of HR laws and common legal issues in the workplace.
