Answer:
SD = 0.0740270 or 7.40270 percent rounded off to 7.403 percent
Explanation:
To calculate the standard deviation of the investment, we must first calculate the expected or mean return of the investment. The expected or mean return can be calculated as follows,
r = pA * rA + pB * rB + ... + pN * rN
Where,
- pA, pB, ... represents the probability of state occurrence
- rA, rB, ... represents return A, return B and so on under each state
r = 0.2 * 0.16 + 0.4 * 0.12 + 0.2 * 0.05 + 0.2 * -0.05
r = 0.08 or 8%
The formula to calculate the standard deviation of a stock/investment is as follows,
SD = √pA * (rA - r)² + pB * (rB - r)² + ... + pN * (rN - r)²
SD = √0.2 * (0.16 - 0.08)² + 0.4 * (0.12 - 0.08)² + 0.2 * (0.05 - 0.08)² + 0.2 * (-0.05 - 0.08)²
SD = 0.0740270 or 7.40270 percent rounded off to 7.403 percent

Answer:
$10,000
Explanation:
Depreciation of an asset is the systematic allocation of estimated cost to an asset over time. It is added over the years to get the accumulated depreciation that is netted off the cost to get the net book value.
It is given as
Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value)/Estimated useful life
Depreciation expense for Year 1 (the first year of the asset's life) under the straight-line method would be
= ( $60,000 - $10,000 ) / 5
= $50,000/5
= $10,000
