Question: Suppose that you bought a stock four years ago at $10. The stock’s price at the end of each year is listed as follows.
YEAR 1 2 3 4
PRICE $12 $14 $15 $22
(1) Please compute the rate of return (as a percentage) for each year.
Rate of Return = ( Final Value − Initial Value ) Initial Value ⋅ 100 %
(2) Please compute the geometric mean of the rates of return. (You can leave your answer by inserting all the relevant numbers to the formula.) R g = ( 1 + R 1 ) ( 1 + R 2 ) ( 1 + R 3 ) . . . ( 1 + R n ) n − 1 where R is in decimal form only!
Please explain this answer and include step by step examples.
