Respuesta :

Answer:

Option (D) 1.29%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Treasury bill returns over four years :

4%, 3%, 2%, and 5%

Now,

Average return = (4% + 3% + 2%+ 5%) ÷ 4

= 3.5%

Standard deviation = [ ∑(Return - Mean)² ] ÷ [ n -1 ]

= [ (4% - 3.5%)² + (3% - 3.5%)² + (2% - 3.5%)² + (5% - 3.5%)² ] ÷ [ 4 - 1 ]

= 3.87% ÷ 3

= 1.29%

Hence,

Option (D) 1.29%
