2 3 Suppose the returns on long-term corporate bonds and T-bills are normally distributed. Based on the historical record, use the NORMDIST function in Excel to answer the following questions: a. What is the probability that in any given year, the return on long-term corporate bonds will be greater than 10 percent? Less than 0 percent? b. What is the probability that in any given year, the return on T-bills will be greater than 10 percent? Less than 0 percent? c. In 1980, the return on long-term government bonds was -3.95 percent. How likely is it that such a low return will recur at some point in the future? T-bills had a return of 11.24 percent in this same year. How likely is it that such a high return on T-bills will recur at some point in the future? 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 14 15 11 12 a.
