A quantitative analyst is constructing a stock selection algorithm that will be employed in making intraday trades and uses the annual returns of two utility stocks, stock A and stock B, to test the model's capacity to capture dependence between stock returns. The 5 years of annual returns data for each stock used in the test are shown in the following table:

YearReturn of stock A (Rₐ)Return of stock B (R_b)
10.180.32
20.130.22
30.040.00
40.300.10
50.080.05

The analyst estimates that the sample means of the returns of stock A (μₐ) and stock B (μ_b) are 0.146 and 0.138, respectively. What is the unbiased estimate of the sample covariance of stocks A and B?
