Consider the following information for three stocks, A, B, and C, that can be put into portfolios with the following allocations: Portfolio AC has 80% of its funds invested in Stock A and 20% in Stock C. Portfolio BC has 20% of its funds invested in Stock B and 80% in Stock C. Portfolio ABC has one-third of its funds invested in each of the three stocks. Stock Expected Return Standard Deviation Beta A 10% 20% 1.0 B 10% 10% 1.0 C 12% 12% 1.5 Calculate the Beta of Portfolio AC to the second decimal place.
