High Growth’s annual stock returns over the last 7 years are: 27%, –18%, 34%, 11%, –28%, 75%, and –15%. What is High Growth’s standard deviation of return? Enter your answer rounded to two decimal places. Do not enter % in the answer box. For example, if your answer is 0.12345 or 12.345% then enter as 12.35 in the answer box.
SD = SQRT[ [ Sum [ (X - Avg X)^2 ] / n ]
Avg ret = Sum [ Ret ] / n
= [ 27%-18%+34%+11%-28%+75%-15% ] / 7
= 86% / 7
= 12.29%
Year | Ret (X) | ( X - Avg X) | ( X - Avg X)^2 |
1 | 0.2700 | 0.1471 | 0.0216 |

7 | -0.1500 | -0.2729 | 0.0745 |
Sum [ (X - Avg X)^2 ] | 0.7907 | ||
Sum [ (X - Avg X)^2 ] / n | 0.1130 | ||
SQRT [ Sum [ (X - Avg X)^2 ] / n ] | 0.3361 |
SD = 0.3361 i.e 33.61%
