    The portfolio's beta is 0.9875.

    Explanation:

    Beta is a systematic risk. Portfolio beta is weightage average of beta of all investment in the portfolio. It is calculated as below.

    As an investment equal to $ 50,000 is made in each of four type of stock. So weightage of 25% (200,000/50,000) will be assign to each stock when calculating entire portfolio beta.

    Portfolio Beta = 25% * 0.95 + 25% * 0.8 + 25%*1 + 25%*1.2

    Portfolio Beta = 0.2375 + 0.2 + 0.25 + 0.3

    Portfolio Beta = 0.9875
