Allocate the $300,000 to the individual stocks selected; basically pretend you are buying the stocks.

Now calculate the weight each stock plays in your "portfolio." Using the expected return and beta coefficients for each stock and the percentage of the $300,000 invested in each, calculate the "portfolio" expected return and the "portfolio" beta. Use Equation 7-4 for both these values, keeping the same weights, but changing the variables.

Equation 7-4. The Expected Rate of Return, E(R_p), of a portfolio comprised of Two Assets, A and B:

E(Rp) =	(wa E(Ra)) + (wb E(Rb))
where: E(Rp) =	the expected rate of return of the portfolio composed of Asset A and Asset B
wa =	the weight of Asset A in the portfolio
E(Ra) =	the expected rate of return of Asset A
wb =	the weight of Asset B in the portfolio
E(Rb) =	the expected rate of return of Asset B
