Explanation / Answer

(A) Mean and standard deviation of each data set

Mean for bond mutual funds is 2.375

Standard deviation for bond mutual funds is 0.669

Mean for stock mutual funds is 8.0125

Standard deviation for stock mutual funds is 0.903

(b) Here based on stadard deviation, Stock mutual funds have more spread.

(c) Here for Bond mutual funds

one standard deviation away values are = (2.375 - 0.669, 2.375 + 0.669) = (1.706, 3.044)

Here out of 8, there are 5 values under one standard deviation so proportion are 5/8 = 0.625

Here for stock mutual funds

one standard deviation away values are = (8.013 - 0.903, 8.013 + 0.903) = (7.109, 8.916)

Here out of 8, there are 5 values under one standard deviation so proportion are 5/8 = 0.625

(d) Here for Bond mutual funds

Coefficient of Variation CV = / = 0.669/2.375 = 0.282

for Stock mutual funds

Coefficient of Variation CV = / = 0.903/8.013 = 0.113

Here as per CV, bond mutual funds have more spread.
