Stocks A and B have the following probability distributions of expected future returns: a. Calculate the expected rate of return, B, for Stock B (A = 12.50%.) Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. % b. Calculate the standard deviation of expected returns, GA, for Stock A (σ = 20.90%.) Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. % Now calculate the coefficient of variation for Stock B. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places. Is it possible that most investors might regard Stock B as being less risky than Stock A? I. If Stock B is more highly correlated with the market than A, then it might have a lower beta than Stock A, and hence be less risky in a portfolio sense. II. If Stock B is more highly correlated with the market than A, then it might have the same beta as Stock A, and hence be just as risky in a portfolio sense. III. If Stock B is less highly correlated with…
