    Given: Investment in Stock A = $6000 and in Stock B = $4000

    Particulars weights beta

    Stock A 60 percent 0.85

    Stock B 40 percent 1.6

    The following is the calculation of the portfolio beta

    Portfolio Beta = (0.6 multiply with 0.85) + (0.4 multiply with 1.6)

    Solving the equation:

    = 0.51 + 0.64

    Thus, after solving we get, 1.15

    Thus, the portfolio beta = 1.15
