Consider the following table for the total annual returns for a given period of time.Explanation / Answer
AR = 6.80%
SD = 9.80%
We have following formula for range for 68% probability:
Range = AR-SDto AR+SD
= 6.8%-9.8%to 6.8%+9.8%
= -3.% to 16.60%
We have following formula for range for 95% probability:
Range = AR-SDto AR+SD
= 6.8%-2x9.8%to 6.8%+2x9.8%
= -12.80% to 26.40%
