【Answer to question 1】C

【analysis】

C is correct. Reflecting the uncertainty of the unknown variance, confidence intervals based on the t-distribution will be larger than those using the normal distribution because t > z for any sample size, n, with the exception of n = ∞. Larger sample sizes and reduced confidence levels, holding all else constant, both reduce the width of a confidence interval. A is incorrect. A reduction in the degree of confidence will decrease the width of the confidence interval (because of a smaller reliability factor). B is incorrect. Increasing the sample size decreases the width of a confidence interval (because of a smaller standard error and, in the case of a t-distribution, of a smaller reliability factor).

【Answer to question 2】B

【analysis】

B is correct. The geometric mean return is calculated as the Tth root of the product of T terms, where the terms are one plus the returns and T is the number of returns. After taking the Tth root, subtract one:
