Jason Jackson is attempting to evaluate two possible portfolios consisting of the same five assets but held in different proportions. He is particularly interested in using beta to compare the risk of the portfolios and, in this regard, has gathered the following data: .

a. Calculate the betas for portfolios A and B.

b. If the risk-free rate is 2.5% and the market return is 5.2%, calculate the required return for each portfolio using the CAPM.

a. The beta of portfolio A is ( ). (Round to three decimal places.)

The beta of portfolio B is ( ). (Round to three decimal places.)

b. The required return of portfolio A is ( )%. (Round to two decimal places.)

The required return of portfolio B is ( )%. (Round to two decimal places.)
