Full form of SAR
Stated Annual Return (R)
m=?

FV/(1+SAR/m)^n*m
PV will be highest when?
returns are annualised
nominal risk free Rate=? for riskless entity
nominal risk free rate= real risk free rate+ inflation
opportunity cost is
rate that could’ve been received in the second best alternative

GM is also known as
CAGR
arrange hm gm am
hm<gm<am
what is geometric mean?
