Answer:

The new beta of the portfolio 1.17

Explanation:

Portfolio beta is sum of weighted beta of all stocks consisting of it.

Portfolio beta = 1.12

Weight of each portfolio = 5,000

All weight or Amount = 5,000 * 20 = 100,000

Weight of one stock = 5,000 / 100,000 = 0.05

Foregone beta or beta of sold stock = 1

Acquired beta or beta of purchased stock = 2

Weight of both are same = 0.05

New beta = Portfolio beta - (foregone beta * weight) + (Acquired beta * weight)

New beta = 1.12 - (1 * 0.05) + (2 * 0.05)

New beta = 1.12 - 0.05 + 0.1

New beta = 1.17

So New portfolio beta is 1.17

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Your answer is that she needs to earn $148 on Friday

Explanation:

Calculate Average:

(67 + 82 + 78) / 4 = 56.75    (Remember 67 is worth Monday and Tuesday)

We know that the number that the 4 numbers add up to has to be divisible by 5 because our we need to average 75 and we have 5 days to average on.

5 x 75 = 375

67 + 82 + 78 = 227

375 - 227 = 148

(67+82+78+148) / 5 = 75

Your answer is that she needs to earn $148 on Friday
