Answer:

The answer is 0.0707

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Probability Return  Probability(return-expected return)^2

0.25                  25                0.25(25-15)^2=25

0.5                     15                0.5(15-15)^2=0

0.25                    5                0.25(5-15)^2=25

Total = 25 +0 + 25

= 50

Thus

The next step is to find the standard deviation which is given below:

Standard deviation=[total probability (return-expected return)^2/total probability]^(1/2)

=(50)^(1/2)

=0.0707

Hence the standard deviation is 0.0707.

Note: The expected return is =15%

Mr. Ghani wants to deposit his savings of Rs. 50,000 in a bank which offers 8% interest compounded semi-annually to withdraw Rs.
Harman [31]

Answer:

How many withdrawals will he or his heir (in case of his death) be able to make before the entire amount is exhausted is explained below in detail explanation.

Explanation:

Let the no of withdrawals be n, then

Present value of n withdrawals = 50000

Interest rate per 6 months =8%/2 =4%

Withdraw amt/(Int rate)*(1-1/(1+interest)^n) = 50000

=> 2500/0.04*(1-1/1.04^n) = 50000

1/1.04^n = 0.2

1.04^n = 5

=> n = ln(5) / ln(1.04) = 41.03

Total 41 withdrawals of Rs.2500 can be made (with a smaller 42nd installment of less than Rs.2500)
