The beta of Ford stock is 1.11, the beta of Toyota is 1.43, and the beta of Kia is 1.73. If the expected return of the market index is 13% and the risk-free asset yields 6%, what are the beta and the expected return of Obi-wan's portfolio? Give your answer rounded to two decimal places.
What is the beta of the portfolio?βP = (Should be 1.09)
b) Based on the value of βP = 1.09 , what is the expected return of Obi-wan's portfolio?
