Hayek Corporation has a 0.5 probability of a return of 0.00, a 0.2 probability of a rate of return of 0.08, and the remaining probability of a 0.40 rate of return. What is the variance in the expected rate of return of Hayek Corporation?
remaining probability=1-0.5-0.2=0.3
Expected return=Respective return*Respective probability
=(0.5*0)+(0.2*0.08)+(0.3*0.4)=0.136
probability | Return | probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2 |
0.5 | 0 | 0.5*(0-0.136)^2=0.009248 |
0.2 | 0.08 | 0.2*(0.08-0.136)^2=0.0006272 |
0.3 | 0.4 | 0.3*(0.4-0.136)^2=0.0209088 |
Total=0.030784 |
Standard deviation=[Total probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2/Total probability]^(1/2)
=0.1755(Approx).
Variance=Standard deviation^2
=0.030784.
