A stock had returns of 12 percent, 16 percent, 10 percent, 19 percent, 15 percent, and -6 percent over the last six years. What
OleMash [197]

Answer:

10.68%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Returns on stock : 12%, 16%, 10%, 19%, 15%, -6%

Now,

Geometric average return on the stock is calculated as:

Geometric average return = ({(1 + r_1)\times(1 + r_2).......\times(1 + r_n)})^\frac{1}{n}- 1

Thus,

For the given returns on stock

Geometric average return

=[ (1 + 0.12)\times(1 + 0.16)\times(1 + 0.10)\times(1 + 0.19)\times(1 + 0.15)\times(1 + (- 0.06)) ]^{\frac{1}{6}}-1

= [ 1.12\times1.16\times1.10\times1.19\times1.15\times0.94 ]^{\frac{1}{6}}-1

=  [1.8384056768]^{\frac{1}{6}}-1

= 1.1068 - 1

= 0.1068

or

= 0.1068 × 100%

= 10.68%

For a sale, the original retail price of a particular shirt and the original retail price of a particular hat were both reduced
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Discount = original price × discount fraction

Discounted price = original price - discount

Discount fraction = 20%

= 20/100

A.

Original price of shirt = $x

Original price of hat = $(x + 10)

Discounted price of shirt = $x - $0.2x

= $0.8x

Discounted price of hat = $(x + 10)

- 0.2$(x + 10)

= $0.8 × (x + 10)

Difference of discounted price of hat to shirt = 0.8(x + 10) - 0.8x

= $8

B.

Original price of shirt = $x

Original price of hat = $ 1.5 × x

Discounted price of shirt = $x - $0.2x

= $0.8x

Discounted price of hat = $ 1.5 × x

- 0.2 × $ 1.5 × x

= $ 1.2x

Difference of discounted price of hat to shirt = 1.2x - 0.8x

= $ 0.4x
