34)

The Oklahoma Pipeline Company projects the following pattern of inflows from an investment. The inflows are spread over time to reflect delayed benefits. Each year is independent of the others.
  

Year 1 Year 5 Year 10
Cash Inflow Probability Cash Inflow Probability Cash Inflow Probability
$ 65 0.40 $ 50 0.35 $ 40 0.30
80 0.20 80 0.30 80 0.40
95 0.40 110 0.35 120 0.30


The expected value for all three years is $80.

Compute the standard deviation for each of the three years. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Solution :

Standard Deviation for Year 1 = 13.4164 %

= 13.42 % ( when rounded off to two decimal places )

Standard Deviation for Year 5 = 25.0998 %

= 25.10 % ( when rounded off to two decimal places )

Standard Deviation for Year 10 = 30.9839 %  

= 30.98 % ( when rounded off to two decimal places )

Please find the attached screenshot of the excel sheet containing the detailed calculation for the solution.
