1. You and your friend Jack have different opinions about Tesla stock price. On Sep. 30, 2020, you did a short sale of Tesla stock at $429.01 for 1000 shares. The same day, Jack bought the Tesla stock at $429.01 for 1000 shares with margin. The initial margin and maintenance margin requirement for short sale is 150%. The initial margin and maintenance margin requirement for long on margin is 30% (assume no interest is charged on long on margin account). Below is the Tesla stock price in the next 2 days:

Oct. 01, 2020: $448.16

Oct. 02, 2020: $415.09.

1.Please calculate your daily margin ratio and Jack’s daily margin ratio for each of the next 2 days (Oct. 01 and Oct. 02). Please specify if margin call is received and how much money you or Jack need to deposit into the account after the margin call. (6 points)

2.If you and Jack both decide to close the account (i.e., selling the stock or covering the short selling position) after receiving the first margin call instead of depositing more money into the account, please calculate returns for both of you. (4 points)

  • Use Excel to conduct a regression of the values of the security against the predictors and verify the validity of underlying assumptions
    • Check for homoscedasticity and serial correlation
    • If necessary, rerun the regression using robust standard errors

This policy ensures that all students in grades one to nine are physically active for at least thirty minutes each day through activities organized by the school (Alberta, 2020). Being active is being healthy. As was mentioned in the Dr. Christine Kennedy’s article schools have the potential to help children develop lifelong, healthy eating patterns and encourage physical activity; research supports school-based interventions to increase physical activity and decrease obesity (Kennedy, 2010).

Giving the kids an opportunity to have an active form of break, allows them to get the proper physical attention to the young body. This increase the overall mental and physical health. Kids between ages of 6 to 14 are in the most important period of they life, when the body and bones are forming. Therefore, this initiative that came to Alberta schools in 2005 was widely accepted and implemented by all the schools across the province.

come up with a discussion question. Something that a rival or someone who is against this policy would say.

  1. Suppose you are fresh out of college and plan to immediately start working and retire in 40 years, after which you plan to live for another 20 years after retirement.  Assuming that the interest rate from now until the end of retirement will average about 5% and that your income before retirement will likely be about $80,000 per year, how much should you save annually between now and retirement:
    1. If you want to replace about 75% of your pre-retirement income after retirement?
  1. If you want to spend the same amount of money after retirement as you did before retirement?

Consider a set of n boxes with their positions numbered from 1 to n. Initially all the boxes
are CLOSED. These n boxes are subject to modifications over n iterations as follows. At the ith
iterations the boxes at the positions whose ids are multiples of i are flipped, i.e. changed from
CLOSED to OPEN or vice-versa. For example, at iteration 1, boxes at all positions are
flipped, at iteration 2, boxes at positions 2,4,6,etc. are flipped, at iteration 3, boxes at positions 3,6,9, etc.
are flipped.
Propose an algorithm for find out, that after n such iterations how many boxes will be OPEN.
Note that the answer requires only how many boxes, not their positions. Describe the rationale
for the algorithm, give the pseudocode, and its complexity. Grading scheme: (your grade will be
based on whichever class your algorithm falls in)
- For algorithms with complexity O(n2) or higher.
- For algorithms with complexity O(kn), where k is the number of digits of n.
- For algorithms with complexity O(M(k)), where k is the number of digits of n, and M(k) is
the complexity of multiplying two k digit numbers.
