II) The conventional CAPM works about the same as the conditional CAPM with human

Fama and French (2002) studied the equity premium puzzle by breaking their sample into
subperiods and found that
Which of the following is a (are) result(s) of the Fama and French (2002) study of the
equity premium puzzle?
I) Average realized returns during 1950-1999 exceeded the internal rate of return (IRR) for
corporate investments.
II) The statistical precision of average historical returns is far higher than the precision of
estimates from the dividend-discount model (DDM).
III) The reward-to-variability ratio (Sharpe) derived from the DDM is far more stable than
that derived from realized returns.
IV) There is no difference between DDM estimates and actual returns with regard to IRR,
statistical precision, or the Sharpe measure.
