Consider a 2-period binomial non-recombining model. Let r = 0.05 be the discrete interest rate for each of the periods, S(0) = 100 and suppose that the stock price follow four possible scenarios:
| Scenario | S(1) | S(2) |
| ?1 | Su | Suu |
| ?2 | Su | 103 |
| ?3 | 90 | Sdu |
| ?4 | 90 | 80 |
It is known that the risk-neutral probability for each scenario ?i , i = 1, 2, 3, 4 satisty P ? (?1) = 0.2, P? (?2) = 0.4, P? (?3) = 0.3, P? (?4) = 0.1.
(a) Draw the tree of the stock prices using Su , Suu, and Sdu, and find the risk-neutral probability for each route on the tree.
(b) Find the prices Su , Suu, and Sdu
(c) Find today’s price of a European call option with strike price K = $100 maturing after two steps.
(d) Find today’s price of an American put option with strike price $110 and expiration date in two steps. Should the American option be exercised early? If so, when?

The spreadsheet shows you how to calculate invoice price for 6-year maturity bond with a coupon rate of 2.25% (paid semiannually). The market interest rate given is 7.9%. Now, please modify the spreadsheet and calculate invoice price of bond with 6.25% coupon (paid semiannually), settlement date July 31,2012, maturity date May 15, 2030, YTM 7.9%.
2.25% coupon bond,
maturing July 31, 2018 Formula in column B
Settlement date 7/31/2012 =DATE(2012,7,31)
Maturity date 7/31/2018 =DATE(2018,7,31)
Annual coupon rate 0.0225
Yield to maturity 0.079
Redemption value (% of face value) 100
Coupon payments per year 2
Flat price (% of par) 73.4101 =PRICE(B4,B5,B6,B7,B8,B9)
Days since last coupon 0 =COUPDAYBS(B4,B5,2,1)
Days in coupon period 184 =COUPDAYS(B4,B5,2,1)
Accrued interest 0 =(B13/B14)*B6*100/2
Invoice price 73.4101 =B12+B15

Calculate and graph the profit maximizing price and quantity in output markets (monopoly)
ACME Electricity provides electricity service in a rural community as a monopolist with no competitors.
The following Table 1 shows price per unit and total costs associated with various amounts of electricity (in 100 kilowatts blocks) in the short-run:

Step 1
Using the information in Table 1, create a separate table that includes calculations of the following for each quantity of electricity (in 100 kilowatt blocks): Total Revenue, Marginal Revenue, Total Cost, Marginal Cost, Average Total Cost, and Profit.
The table can be computer-generated or created by hand. Be sure to appropriately label the table so the various costs, revenues, and profit can be identified. Round off to two decimal places for the dollar values.
Step 2
Using Table 1 and the table you created in Step 1 for this section, create one graph that contains the following curves: Marginal Revenue, Demand, Average Revenue, Marginal Cost, and Average Total Cost.
Label the vertical axis “Price, Revenue, and Cost (in dollars)” and the horizontal axis “Quantity of Electricity (in 100 kilowatt blocks)”. Label each of the five curves on the graph. The graph can be computer-generated or created by hand. Indicate the profit maximizing quantity and price in this graph. Indicate the amount of profit earned by the company at the profit maximizing quantity by shading the relevant area on the graph.
