The file MutualFunds contains a data set with information for 45 mutual funds that are part of the Morningstar Funds 500. The data set includes the following five variables: Fund Type: The type of fund, labeled DE (Domestic Equity), IE (International Equity), and FI (Fixed Income) Net Asset Value (): The closing price per share Five-Year Average Return (%): The average annual return for the fund over the past five years Expense Ratio (%): The percentage of assets deducted each fiscal year for fund expenses Morningstar Rank: The risk adjusted star rating for each fund; Morningstar ranks go from a low of 1 Star to a high of 5 Stars. a. Prepare a PivotTable that gives the frequency count of the data by Fund Type (rows) and the five-year average annual return (columns). Use classes of 09.99, 1019.99, 2029.99, 3039.99, 4049.99, and 5059.99 for the Five-Year Average Return (%). b. What conclusions can you draw about the fund type and the average return over the past five years?
