Suppose you have the option to extend a loan to a friend this year for $1000 in exchange for repayment next year of $1100 (the $1100 is the principal plus interest).

Suppose you have the option to extend a loan to a friend this year for $1000 in exchange for repayment next year of $1100 (the $1100 is the principal plus interest). Every year, however, the friend has the option to borrow $1000 again in exchange for $1100 repayment one year later, i.e. the friend can roll over the debt. You know this friend well and know that he will always roll over the debt and will never default.

a. Assume neither of you will ever die. What is the NPV of this infinite stream of loans if you have a discount rate of 8%?

b. Now assume your friend today is t=0 and your friend will die immediately after paying back his loan at t=60. What is the NPV of this finite stream of loans if you have a discount rate of 8%?

If a person bought 1 share of Google stock within the last year, what is the probability that the stock on that day closed within $50 of the mean for that year

 

Mean of stock price = 1117.64

STDEV (Population) = 67.61

  1. If a person bought 1 share of Google stock within the last year, what is the probability that the stock on that day closed within $50 of the mean for that year (round to two places)? (Hint: this means the probability of being between 50 below and 50 above the mean).

  2. If a person bought 1 share of Google stock within the last year, what is the probability that the stock on that day closed at less than $1050 per share (round to two places)? Would this be considered unusual? Use the definition that an unusual value is more than 2 standard deviations above or below the mean.

  3. At what prices would Google have to close in order for it to be considered statistically unusual or statistically significant outliers? You will have a low and high value. There are several possible definitions for unusual in statistics, but for our project let's use the definition that an unusual value is more than 2 standard deviations above or below the mean.
