Ex-post is depicted by which of the following ........

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Option 1: What actually has happened -> Ex-post refers to after-the-fact analysis.

Option 2: What actually will happen? -> This is forward-looking, not ex-post.

Option 3: What is actually planned? -> This refers to plans before execution, not ex-post.

Option 4: What should plan be -> This is prescriptive and forward-looking.


Hence, Option 1: What actually has happened -> Ex-post is a Latin term meaning 'after the fact.' It refers to analysis, evaluation, or assessment conducted after an event has occurred, based on actual historical data and real outcomes. For example, ex-post returns in finance are the actual returns that were realized, as opposed to ex-ante (expected or forecasted) returns. -> correct
