Answer:

The endowment fund is not satisfied with the advisor's performance

Explanation:

Judging from a nominal interest rate perspective where return expected of an investment comprises of real rate of return and an extra return which is a compensation for inflation rate in the economy,the endowment fund is not satisfied with performance of the advisor.

The satisfactory rate of return that would be expected of the advisor is computed below:

nominal interest rate=real rate+inflation rate

real rate is 8.2%

nominal interest rate=8.2%+2.9%

                                  =11.10%
