Answer:

B

Explanation:

Beta of a portfolio is given by adding the some of the beta of each stock multiplied by the weights

Overall investment equals $50000+$50000=$100000

which gives Wx=50000/100000=0.5

                    Wy=50000/100000=0.5

Bp=Wx*Bx)+(Wy*By)

     =(0.5*1.6)+(0.5*1.6)

     =1.6

The expected return calculated by sum of weight multiplied by expected return

Er=(0.5*15%)+(0.5*15%)

    =15%

The portfolio has a beta equal to 1.6 and expected return equal to 15%

klasskru [66]
