Beta Asset = business risk. Formula on exam sheet is in terms of Beta Asset. I.e. ungearing. Ba=Be x E/E+D(1-t). If you want to regear, then you are looking for Be. Be = Ba x E +D(1-t)/E

What you have written is correct for getting the combined equity beta (i.e. geared beta). (Patrick: Please do not answer in this forum - it is the Ask the Tutor Forum and you are not the tutor. Your answer to this question (and to one of the others) is correct, but you answer on dealing with tax allowable depreciation was wrong and so I deleted it and gave the correct answer)
