Explanation
Statement 1: As the statement says about the most expensive stocks, sort the table by price. It is clear that Ceta and Gati are two of the most expensive stocks now that their price has changed horizontally. Both have the least change in price, hence the statement is correct.
Answer: True
Statement 2: Sort the table by price of the stock; the two least expensive stocks are Dega and Icha. Compare horizontally. Dega has two negative price improvements; hence, it must not be the stock with maximum growth over this period. The statement is incorrect.
Answer: False
Statement 3: Similar to statement 2, the cheapest stock in the beginning of the period is Icha which went highest during this period. The statement is correct.
Answer: False
Answer: True
