Summary Introduction

To calculate: Arithmetic average returns of all the stocks.

Introduction: Arithmetic average returns is sum of all the returns divided by number of years. Arithmetic average is simply mean of the average values.

B

Summary Introduction

To calculate: Find the stock which has greater dispersion.

Introduction: Dispersion defines as how many times a number varies in data. It can be evaluated by using standard deviation, range, and variance.

C

Summary Introduction

To calculate: The geometric mean of stocks.

Introduction: Geometric mean calculated for the series which has a common ratio between two terms. For example 3, 9, 27, 81 here the common ratio is 3 between two terms.

Introduction: The expected return rate is mean of return means sum of the all return divided by the total number of years whereas the return is a product of return and weight of particular stock.

The stock yields for three years are given as 0.15, -0.10 and 0.12, respectively. Which is the geometric mean return accordingly?
Suppose the returns on a small stock are normally distributed. The historical average return is 18 percent, and the standard deviation is 6 percent. What is the probability that your return on this stock will be no less than 12 percent in a given year? What range of returns would you expect to see 95 percent of the time? What range would you expect to see 99 percent of the time?
Suppose that the annual return for particular stock follows the same distribution every year, and that the return for any given year is independent of the returns for any prior years. Based on an analysis of the stock's annual returns over an 12 year period, it is determined that the 95% confidence interval for the stock's expected annual return is given by (-0.1724, 0.2861). Find the volatility of the stock. Use the approximation formula from Berk and DeMarzo. 38.52% 40.90% 42.09% 37.32% 39.71%
