Problem 2-10 Portfolio Beta

You have a $2 million portfolio consisting of a $100,000 investment in each of 20 different stocks. The portfolio has a beta of 0.75. You are considering selling $100,000 worth of one stock with a beta of 0.85 and using the proceeds to purchase another stock with a beta of 1.45. What will the portfolio's new beta be after these transactions? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
