Answer:
Amount investment in Sock Y = - $126,000
Beta of portfolio = 1.636
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Total amount to be invested = $140,000
Stock X Y
Expected return 14% 10%
Beta 1.42 1.18
Expected return of portfolio = 17.6%
Now,
let the weight invested n stock X be W
therefore,
Weight of Stock Y = 1 - W
thus,
( W × 14% ) + (1 - w) × 10% = 17.6
%
or
14W + 10% - 10W = 17.6%
or
4W = 7.6
or
W = 1.9
Therefore,
weight of Y = 1 - 1.9 = -0.9
Thus,
Amount investment in Sock Y = Total amount to be invested × Weight
= 140,000 × ( - 0.9 )
= - $126,000 i.e short Y
Beta of portfolio = ∑ (Beta × Weight)
= [ 1.42 × 1.9 ] + [ 1.18 × (-0.9) ]
= 2.698 - 1.062
= 1.636
