The current price of a non-dividend paying stock is $35. Use a two-step tree to value an American put option on the stock with a strike price of $33 that expires in 12 months. Each step is 6 months, the risk free rate is 6% per annum (continuously compounding), and the volatility is 15%. What is the option price? Show work in detail and use a tree diagram (Use 4 decimal places).

Festive Floral is gearing up for online carnation sales this Mother’s Day. They specialize in selling organic extra-large red and pink carnations. The price is $0.7 per stem, which includes free one-day shipping to the customer.
Festive Floral pre-orders carnations directly from a certified organic farm at the cost of $0.15 per stem. The order is made prior to the growing season and flowers are grown accordingly, so the pre-order quantity cannot be changed. However, if Festive Floral runs out of pre-ordered carnations, they can always pick up more immediately from a local wholesaler that carries carnations of the same quality, at the price of $0.5 per stem.

(a) (5 points) Using exponential smoothing with parameter ?? = 0.9, what is your forecast for red carnations in 2018? What is the MAD of your forecast?
(b) (3 points) Based on the forecast above, what is the optimal number of red carnations to pre-order from the farm?
(c) (8 points) Repeat Parts (a) and (b) for pink carnations.
The carnations are sold in dozens, and each dozen comes with a designer gift tag that says “Happy Mother’s Day 2018 from Festive Floral!” The gift tags are identical for carnations of both colors.
(d) (5 points) Using exponential smoothing with parameter ?? = 0.9, what is your forecast for gift tags? What is the MAD of your forecast?
(e) (5 points) Using the same z-value as for carnations, what is the optimal number of gift tags to prepare? Is this more or less than the total dozens of carnations, and why?
(f) (4 points) Experiment with the exponential smoothing parameter ?? for the forecast of gift tags in part (d). What is the value of ?? that minimizes the MAD?

Many medical professionals believe that eating too much red meat increases the risk of heart disease and cancer. Suppose you would like to conduct a survey to determine the annual consumption of beef by a typical American and want to use four pounds as the desired margin of error for a confidence interval of the population mean. Assume the population standard deviation is 20 pounds. Determine the sample size when:
a)A 90% confidence interval is desired for the mean amount of beef consumed.
b)A 99% confidence interval is desired for the mean amount of beef consumed.
Suppose you want to develop a confidence interval for the proportion of Americans who over-consume red meat with a desire margin of error of 0.1. Determine the sample size needed when:
c) A 90% confidence interval is desired for the proportion of Americans who over-consume red meat.
d) A 95% confidence interval is desired for the proportion of Americans who over-consume red meat.
