Answer:
1) Expected return is 12.12%
2) Portfolio beta is 1.2932
Explanation:
1)
The expected return can be calculated by multiplying the return in a particular state of economy by the probability of that state occuring.
The expected return = (0.32 * -0.11) + 0.68 * 0.23
Expected return = 0.1212 or 12.12%
b)
The portfolio beta is the the systematic riskiness of the portfolio that is unavoidable. The portfolio beta is the weighted average of the individual stock betas that form up the portfolio.
Thus the portfolio beta will be,
Portfolio beta = 0.33 * 1.02 + 0.2 * 1.08 + 0.37 * 1.48 + 0.1 * 1.93
Portfolio beta = 1.2932
