Answer 1

Complete question is attached;

Answer:

Option D: 0.3069

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for coefficient of variation on the company's stock is;

CV = σ/E(r)

Where σ is the standard deviation and E(r) is expected value of return.

From the attached image, we can find E(r) as;

E(r) = 0.45(25) + 0.5(15) + 0.05(5)

E(r) = 19%

From online calculation, the standard deviation is 5.83%

Thus;

CV = 5.831/19

CV ≈ 0.3069
