Assume the single-factor model applies and a portfolio exists such that 65 percent of the funds are invested in risky Security Q and the rest in the risk-free asset. Security Q has a beta of 1.5. The portfolio has a beta of: a. 1.500.
b. .925.
c. .650.
d. .975.
e. 1.000.

d. .975.

Explanation:

The computation of the portfolio beta is shown below;

Portfolio beta = Respective betas × Respective weights

= (0.65 × 1.5) + (0.35 × 0)

= 0.975 + 0

= 0.975

Hence, the  portfolio has a beta of 0.975

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct beta could come

a progressive tax is a tax that imposes a lower tax rate on low-income earners compared to those with a higher income, making it based on the taxpayer's ability to pay. that means it takes a bigger percentage from high income earners than it does from low income people.
