Stock INVESTMENT (i) Beta (ii) Investment* Beta (i)* (ii)
A              5,00,000                     1.50                         7,50,000.00
B              4,20,000                   (0.50)                       (2,10,000.00)
C            14,60,000                     1.25                       18,25,000.00
C            24,00,000                     0.75                       18,00,000.00
Total            47,80,000                       41,65,000.00
AVERAGE BETA = (INVESTMENT * BETA) / TOTAL INVESMENT
4165000 / 4780000
0.871338912
Required Return = Risk free Return + (Market Return - Risk free return)* Beta
Required Return = 6% + (10% - 6%)*0.871338912
Required Return = 9.49%
