Which type of average rate of return best describes the average annual rate of return earned over the period​ (the arithmetic or​ geometric)? ​ Why?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Geometric Mean better describes average annual rate of return earned over the period.

Explanation:

Geometric Mean is a better measure to calculate average rate of return because :- the rate of returns in various periods are interconnected to each other.

In cases where variables to be averaged are interdependent, geometric mean & not arithmetic mean provides a better picture of their average.
