Firm A: EPSA ($1.50) $1.80 $5.10 $8.40 $11.70
Firm B: EPSB (1.20) 1.50 4.20 6.90 9.60
Firm C: EPSC (2.40) 1.35 5.10 8.85 12.60
You are given that ?c = $4.11. Discuss the relative riskiness of the three firms' earnings using their respective coefficients of variation. Round your answer to two decimal places. CV A B C
