The Correct Answer is E. On the BAll Plus, press 500 PV, 0 PMT, 34 N, 6.5 divide 4 = I/Y, then press CPT FV. On the HP12C, press 500 PV, 0 PMT, 34 n, 6.5 ENTER 4 divide i, then press FV. Note that N = 34 quarters and the answer is displayed as a negative number. Make sure that the BAll Plus has the P/Y value set to 1.

You are examining a special group of 5 stock market indices. Of these 5, the returns were 4%, 8%, 12%, 16%, and 10%. What is the population standard deviation of this group of stock market indices?
Option A: 10%.
Option B: 4%.
Option C: 0%.
Option D: 16%.
Show/Hide Answer
Option B : 4%.
The population standard deviation is the positive square root of the population variance. The population variance is equal to the sum of the squared differences between each population member and the population mean, divided by the number of items in the population. In this case, we have a mean of 10%. The first squared difference will be (4% – 10%)^2 =
0.0036. The others will be 0.0004, 0.0004, 0.0036, and 0. The sum of these squared differences is 0.008, and divided by 5, we get 0.0016 = 16%%. The square root of this gives us our population standard deviation of 4%.

For a standard normal distribution what is the probability that z is greater than 1.75?
Option A: 0.4599.
Option B: 0.0401.
Option C: None of these answers.
Option D: 0.9599.
Option D: 0.0459.
Show/Hide Answer
Option B : 0.0401.
The area under the curve for z = 1.75 is 0.4599. Therefore, 0.4599*2 = 0.9198. We want z >1.75. So we want (1 – 0.9198/2 = 0.0401.
