SD = 0.03666 or 3.666%

Explanation:

To calculate the standard deviation of the investment, we must first calculate the expected or mean return of the investment. The expected or mean return can be calculated as follows,

r = pA * rA + pB * rB + ... + pN * rN

Where,

pA, pB, ... represents the probability of return A, return B and so on

r = 0.2 * 0.16 + 0.3 * 0.12 + 0.4 * 0.08 + 0.1 * 0.04

r = 0.104 or 10.4%

The formula to calculate the standard deviation of a stock/investment is as follows,

SD = √pA * (rA - r)² + pB * (rB - r)² + ... + pN * (rN - r)²

SD = √0.2 * (0.16 - 0.104)² + 0.3 * (0.12 - 0.104)² + 0.4 * (0.08 - 0.104)² + 0.1 * (0.04 - 0.104)²

SD = 0.03666 or 3.666%
