    Sir

    I don’t understand how they come up with the asset beta hotel services of.75

    I did 1.1 be with 50/50 which gave me .61, then (.61 x .6) + (.4 x .4) = .366 +.16 = .526 Ba

    0.61 is the total asset beta of the company, which is therefore equal to (0.6 x asset beta of hotel) + (0.4 x asset beta of property (which is 0.4).

    So you have to work backwards to get the asset beta of hotel.

    This is a common exercise in the exam, and I go through examples of it in my free lectures.

    what they have done it seems is deduct the .16 from the .61 and got .45, whereas if you take .61 x .6 you get .366 and adding .16 gets .526…I don’t understand how that works quite honestly but it does

    This really is basic arithmetic, but if you watch my lectures then I explain with similar examples exactly what we are doing. I am not going to type out my lectures again here!! 🙂
