Flightguard Insurance provides life insurance for commercial air flights. Theyoffer a (“fair insurance”) bet where you are allowed to trade $23 in the good (“alive”) state where there is no plane crash for $200,000 in the bad (“not alive”)state where there is a crash. Let P be your probability of a bad state on a flight.

(i) Given the probability of a bad state on a flight is actually about one in 1.15 million flights, what should the premium be for fair insurance?

Suppose a state is considering adding dental benefits to its Medicaid program. The benefits would include insurance coverage for routine and emergency dental care, and both types of care would come with a coinsurance rate of 20%.

a. Describe what happens to the demand curves for routine dental care and emergency dental care when this benefit is introduced. Use a graph and include a discussion of elasticity in your answer.

b. A state legislator is opposed to this law. He argues, “This new benefit means that Medicaid participants will consume too much care.” What does the legislator mean? Would his argument apply to both routine and emergency care? Explain using economic reasoning.

Blue Ocean Ltd. owns a 25% common share interest in Red Ocean Ltd. Blue Ocean acquired the shares nine years ago through a financing transaction. Each year, Blue Ocean has received a dividend from Red Ocean. Red Ocean has been in business for 50 years and continues to have strong operations and cash flows. Blue Ocean must determine the fair value of this investment at its year end. Since there is no market on which the shares are traded, Blue Ocean must use a discounted cash flow model to determine fair value.

Blue Ocean management intends to hold the shares for five more years, at which time they will sell the shares to a shareholder of Red Ocean under an existing agreement for $1 million. There is no uncertainty in this amount. Management expects to receive dividends of $80,000 for each of the five years, although there is a 20% chance that dividends could be $50,000 each year. The risk-free rate is 4% and the risk-adjusted rate is 6%.

Required:   (Total: 30 marks)

1.      List 3 items that Blue Ocean will need to consider in determining the fair value of the investment.

2.      Calculate the fair value of the investment in Red Ocean using the traditional approach. Hint: To support you in your calculation, the factor tables are located in Appendix A at the back of your textbook. You will need to use table PV.1 and PV.2 for this calculation.

3.      Calculate the fair value of the investment using the expected cash flow approach.

Problem 3) A random digit dialing telephone survey of 880 drivers asked, “Recalling the intersections on your most recent drive to work or school , were any of traffic lights red when you entered the intersections, i.e. did you run any red lights?” Of the 880 respondents, 171 admitted that yes, at least one light had been red.

a) What is the response variable? Is it categorical or quantitative?

b) Show that the normal approximation for p̂ is valid by verifying the three conditions. Include the arithmetic. (Remember that when we “assumed” that we knew π, we used nπ ≥ 10. In contrast, this problem is reality where we do not know π: we are trying to estimate π with a confidence interval. So, we use ?̂to estimate π in checking the condition.)

c) Estimate the population proportion of drivers who ran a red light on the way to work or school with a 95 percent confidence interval. (Round the standard deviation to 2 nonzero decimals. For example, if you calculate ??̂ to be 0.01234, round to 0.012.)

d) Interpret the confidence interval with a statement in the context of the problem.
