You are attempting to value a call option with an exercise price of $145 and one year to expiration. The underlying stock pays no dividends, its current price is $145, and you believe it has a 50% chance of increasing to $155 and a 50% chance of decreasing to $135. The risk-free rate of interest is 5%. Based upon your assumptions, calculate your estimate of the the call option's value using the two-state stock price model. Answer is not $4.76

In a population of 158 people: 85 men and 73 women, it was found that 60 men and 46 women had health insurance, the rest no. 40 of the men with health insurance and 9 of the men without insurance, visited the MD office more than 5 times last year. In the other hand, 35 of the women with insurance and 8 of the women without insurance, visited the MD office more than 5 times last year. Giving this information, construct a probability tree and ask yourself 2 questions about the distribution of this population.

Question 2
Harvey Alexander, an all-league professional football player, has just declared free agency. Two teams, the San Francisco 49ers and the Dallas Cowboys, have made Harvey the following offers to obtain his services:
|
49ers: |
$1 million signing bonus payable immediately and an annual salary of $1.5 million for the five-year term of the contract. |
|
Cowboys: |
$2.5 million signing bonus payable immediately and an annual salary of $1 million for the five-year term of the contract. |
With both contracts, the annual salary will be paid in one lump sum at the end of the football season.
Required:
You have been hired as a consultant to Harvey’s agent, Phil Marks, to evaluate the two contracts. Write a short letter to Phil with your recommendation including the method you used to reach your conclusion. Assume that Harvey has no preference between the two teams and that the decision will be based entirely on monetary considerations. Also assume that Harvey can invest his money and earn an 8% annual return.

7. The following data represent the number of workdays absent during the past year, y, and the number of years employed by the company x, for seven employees randomly selected from a large company. Assume data is normally distributed.
Y 2 0 5 6 4 9 2
X 7 8 2 3 5 3 7
The slope estimate (b1) was found to be = -1.09 That is:
b 1= nExy - (Ex) (EY)
---------------------------- = - 1.09
