FRS's mean performance over the last 5 years is shown in the table below (2017-2021). In 2022, FRS's investments have been managed under the guidance of DELTA Advisors, and they finally achieved an annual return of [r6]%. If the performance improved in 2022 (R22 > Historical Average of R), you will renew FRS's contract with DELTA Advisors. Else a different advisor will be hired. Your confidence level should be 10%.   After looking at your results, you recommend:  1: Type 1 if you recommend to renew the contract with DELTA 0: Type 0 if you recommend not to renew the contract with DELTA   Year Return Latest   2022 [r6]% Historical 2021 [r5]% 2020 [r4]% 2019 [r3]% 2018 [r2]% 2017 [r1]% A. You quickly estimate the Mean and write it down (After all, since the data corresponds to historical values, this is the same as the Arithmetic Mean = Average).  B. You estimate the Standard Deviation, and since the number of years in your sample = only five (small), you consider that this is a sample.  C. You estimate the Standard Error, which you get dividing the standard deviation by the square root of N.   The t-statistic (t-"value" estimated from your data) is __________. Please type your answer as percentage and not as decimal (e.g., 5.2 and not 0.0502). Round to the nearest two decimals, if needed.

Correlation NKE [wko]% [sdko]% HD (1 - weight of NKE) [sd2]% [corrko2] ZM (1 - weight of NKE) [sd3]% [corrko3] Currently, Ms. Smith holds a portfolio comprised by NKE and HD shares ([wko]% in NKE). She suggests you should change to a portfolio comprised by NKE and ZM instead ([wko]% in NKE). In this way, she may achieve a lower risk. However, you will be making the final decision.   Do you accept this recommendation? Type 0 as your solution if you do not accept (Your current portfolio has a lower risk than the new one) Type 0.001 as your solution if you accept (The new portfolio would indeed result in a lower risk) *If you choose 0, Canvas may think you have not answered the question.
