Answer:
Given that,
Probability Possible Rate of Return Stock (A) Possible Rate of Return Stock (B) Possible Rate of Return Stock (C)
0.5 -10 12 14
0.2 8 10 7
0.3 14 8 -3

Stock Return=∑_(i=1)^n▒〖P_i*k_i 〗
Where,
Pi=Probability
Ki=Return

Stock Rate of return:
Stock (A) rate of return=0.5*-10%+0.2*8%+0.3*14%=0.80%

Stock (B) rate of return=0.5*12%+0.2*10%+0.3*8%=10.4%
Stock (C) rate of return=0.5*14%+0.2*7%+0.3*-3%=7.50%

Standard Deviation:

Standard deviation=√(∑_(i=1)^n▒〖(k_i-k ̂ )^2*P_i 〗)
Where,
Pi=Probability
Ki=Return
K^=Mean return
Therefore,
Standard deviation Stock (A),σ_A=√(〖((-10-0.80)〗^2*0.5)+((8-0.80)^2*0.2)+((14-0.80)^2*0.3) )=10.998
Standard deviation Stock (B),σ_B=√(〖((12-10.4)〗^2*0.5)+((10-10.4)^2*0.2)+((8-10.4)^2*0.3) )=1.74
Standard deviation Stock (A),σ_C=√(〖((14-7.50)〗^2*0.5)+((7-7.50)^2*0.2)+((-3-7.50)^2*0.3) ...
