3 Betas are weighted Averages The beta of a pormolio is always the market- value weighted average of the betas of the individual investments in that pormolio. Thus, the beta of a mutual fund is the weighted average of the betas of the stocks and other investment in that pormolio the beta of a firm aner a merger is the market- value weighted average of the betas of the companies involved in the merger. 3
4 BoOom- up versus Top- down Beta The top- down beta for a firm comes from a regression The booom up beta can be espmated by doing the following: Find out the businesses that a firm operates in Find the unlevered betas of other firms in these businesses Take a weighted (by sales or operapng income) average of these unlevered betas Lever up using the firm s debt/equity rapo The booom up beta is a beoer espmate than the top down beta for the following reasons The standard error of the beta espmate will be much lower The betas can reflect the current (and even expected future) mix of businesses that the firm is in rather than the historical mix 4

11 Discussion Issue Assume now that you are the CFO of Disney. The head of the movie business has come to you with a new big budget movie that he would like you to fund. He claims that his analysis of the movie indicates that it will generate a return on equity of 9.5%. Would you fund it? a. Yes. It is higher than the cost of equity for Disney as a company b. No. It is lower than the cost of equity for the movie business. What are the broader implicapons of your choice? 11
