    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_prime_distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, the beta prime distribution (also known as inverted beta distribution or beta distribution of the second kind [1]) is an absolutely continuous probability distribution. If [,] has a beta distribution, then the odds has a beta prime distribution.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, the beta distribution is a family of continuous probability distributions defined on the interval [0, 1] or (0, 1) in terms of two positive parameters, denoted by alpha (α) and beta (β), that appear as exponents of the variable and its complement to 1, respectively, and control the shape of the distribution.

    The Beta distribution on [0,1], a family of two-parameter distributions with one mode, of which the uniform distribution is a special case, and which is useful in estimating success probabilities. The four-parameter Beta distribution, a straight-forward generalization of the Beta distribution to arbitrary bounded intervals [,].

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_Beta_distribution

    The beta family includes the beta of the first and second kind [7] (B1 and B2, where the B2 is also referred to as the Beta prime), which correspond to c = 0 and c = 1, respectively. Setting c = 0 {\displaystyle c=0} , b = 1 {\displaystyle b=1} yields the standard two-parameter beta distribution .

    Critically, in assessing a company's financial position (and reading its balance sheet), COE is distinguished from CAPEX, or costs associated with Capital Expenditures. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] Ke is most often used in the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), in which Ke = Rf + ß(Rm-Rf).

    β, Beta, is the measure of asset sensitivity to a movement in the overall market; Beta is usually found via regression on historical data. Betas exceeding one signify more than average "riskiness" in the sense of the asset's contribution to overall portfolio risk; betas below one indicate a lower than average risk contribution.

  9. Beta (finance) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_(finance)

    In finance, the beta (β or market beta or beta coefficient) is a statistic that measures the expected increase or decrease of an individual stock price in proportion to movements of the stock market as a whole. Beta can be used to indicate the contribution of an individual asset to the market risk of a portfolio when it is
