Can some one help me to get the below number…how do we get 1.0909…I tried using HPR In the solution, 1.0909*0.9286*1.33333*0.9762 = 1.3185 - 1 = 31.85% Thanks

Can you post in a better format?

it’s using HPY, So the first one is (2.4+0.2-2)/2 Do that for all of them and you’ll have four numbers. Next take geometric average so ((1+a)*(1+b)*(1+c)+(1+d))^0.25

First of all its, quaterly so we do not need to raise by 1/4 or 0.25 ??? Also, "So the first one is (2.4+0.2-2)/2 " = .30 But the answer in solution is 1.0909*0.9286*1.33333*0.9762 = 1.3185 - 1 = 31.85%

Q1) 0.3 Q2) 0.25 Q3) 0.15 Q4) 0.6 (1.3*1.25*1.15*1.6)^0.25-1 = 0.31
