The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:
The following annual returns for Stock E are projected over the next year for three possible states of the economy. What is the stock’s expected return and standard deviation of returns? E(R) = 8.5% ; σ = 22.70%; mean = $7.50; standard deviation = $2.50
State Prob E(R)
Boom 10% 40%
Normal 60% 20%
Recession
30% - 25%
Answer:
The expected return of the stock E(R) is 8.5%.
The standard deviation of the returns is 22.7%
Explanation:
<u>Expected return</u>
The expected return of the stock can be calculated by multiplying the stock's expected return E(R) in each state of economy by the probability of that state.
The expected return E(R) = (0.4 * 0.1) + (0.2 * 0.6) + (-0.25 * 0.3)
The expected return E(R) = 0.04 + 0.12 -0.075 = 0.085 or 8.5%
<u>Standard Deviation of returns</u>
The standard deviation is a measure of total risk. It measures the volatility of the stock's expected return. The standard deviation (SD) of a stock's return can be calculated by using the following formula:
SD = √(rA - E(R))² * (pA) + (rB - E(R))² * (pB) + ... + (rN - E(R))² * (pN)
Where,
- rA, rB to rN is the return under event A, B to N.
- pA, pB to pN is the probability of these events to occur
- E(R) is the expected return of the stock
Here, the events are the state of economy.
So, SD = √(0.4 - 0.085)² * (0.1) + (0.2 - 0.085)² * (0.6) + (-0.25 - 0.085)² * (0.3)
SD = 0.22699 or 22.699% rounded off to 22.70%
If the supply of person-hours in the market shifts to the right, then the equilibrium wage will <u>fall</u> and the number of person-hours will <u>increase</u>.
The equilibrium wage price is at the intersection of the supply and demand for labor. Personnel is hired as much as the factor where the extra value of hiring an employee Is equal to the extra income revenue from selling their output.
Labor market Equilibrium, the actual salary, and the equilibrium quantity of exertions traded are decided by the intersection of labor supply and labor call for. on the equilibrium actual wage, the amount of hard work provided equals the quantity of labor demanded.
A person's labor supply curve marks out the number of hours they are willing to work at one-of-a-kind wages, the equal manner that a vendor's supply curve marks out how a great deal they are inclined to promote at exceptional costs.
