A. Suppose you have three possible outcomes following the occurrence of an event. These are {no harm, some harm, a lot of harm}. Are elements of this set of outcomes mutually exclusive? Statistically independent? Can they be both? Why or why not? B. Suppose you have three dimensions of harm of concern - confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Following the occurrence of an event, you may or may not suffer a breach of confidentiality, integrity or availability. Whether you suffer loss...

An investment opportunity has 4 possible outcomes. The possible returns in each of these outcomes are -10.5%, -2.1%, 3.2% and 23.5%. If each of these outcomes is equally likely, what is the Expected Return (as measured by the population mean) of this investment? Provide the answer as a % with 1 decimal rounded off.
