CFA一級(jí)試題必不可少的，許多同學(xué)都問(wèn)小編要CFA一級(jí)模擬題什么的，但是在平常的每一天有應(yīng)該復(fù)習(xí)練習(xí)CFA考試題，我們看看定量分析中的考點(diǎn)知識(shí)題，每天都要去復(fù)習(xí)，考試備考做題是少不了的！

Which type of distribution produces the lowest probability for a variable to exceed a specified extreme value X which is greater than the mean assuming the distributions all have the same mean and variance?

A.A leptokurtic distribution with a kurtosis of 4

B.A leptokurtic distribution with a kurtosis of 8

C.A normal distribution

D.A platykurtic distribution

Solution: D

A is incorrect. A leptokurtic distribution has fatter tails than the normal distribution. The kurtosis indicates the level of fatness in the tails, the higher the kurtosis, the fatter the tails. Therefore, the probability of exceeding a specified extreme value will be higher.

B is incorrect. Since answer A. has a lower kurtosis, a distribution with a kurtosis of 8 will necessarily produce a larger probability in the tails.

C is incorrect. By definition, a normal distribution has thinner tails than a leptokurtic distribution and larger tails than a platykurtic distribution.

D is correct. By definition, a platykurtic distribution has thinner tails than both the normal distribution and any leptokurtic distribution. Therefore, for an extreme value X, the lowest probability of exceeding it will be found in the distribution with the thinner tails.
