Question 63

In which month was the greatest absolute change in market value for any share recorded?

Solution

To answer this question, let us calculate the highest increase in market value of each share.

For share A, the highest increase in market value is from Feb to March and equals 110 - 90 = 20
For share B, the market value increases constantly over all the months and is equal to 75-70 = 5
For share C, the highest increase in market value is from Feb to March and equals 60 - 55 = 5
For share D, the highest increase in market value is from Jan to Feb and equals 50 - 40 = 10

Hence, the correct answer is March and the required share is share A
