a. Suppose that the annual interest rate is 1% and no dividend will be declared for the index constituent stocks in the coming quarter. The index is currently standing at 25,500.
i. Compute the index futures deliverable in exact 3 months.
ii. Suppose now the dividend yield of the index constituent stocks is 0.3% rather than 0%. Without doing any calculation, explain whether the index futures price is higher or lower than your answer in part (i).
b. A silver futures contract requires the seller to deliver 5,000 Troy ounces of silver. Henry sells four July silver futures contract at a price of $16 per ounce. The initial margin is $6,000 per contract and the maintenance margin is $2,500 per contract. What is the futures price per ounce at which Henry would receive a margin call?

VS is considering a cash offer to TG (in million): |
72.8 |
|
Cost of capital |
0.11 |
|
Tax-rate |
0.3 |
|
What would be the gain from the merger? |
|
|
Now suppose that instead of making a cash offer, VS cosiders offering TG shareholders a 50% holding in VS. |
|
|
What is the value of stock in the merged company held by the original TG shareholders? |
|
|
What is the cost of the stock alternative? |

. A person has two meetings schedule in a day. The probability she is late for the first
meeting is 0.4, the probability she is late for the second is 0.5, and the probability
she is late for both meetings is 0.3.
Please explain with where each number comes from and the meaning of formulas used if possible, thank you!
a) Is the event that she is late for the first meeting independent of the event that
she is late for the second meeting? Explain
b) Are the two events disjoint? Explain
c) What is the probability that she is late for at least one meeting?
d) What is the probability that she is not late for either one (she is late for neither)?
e) What is the probability that she is not late for both meetings ?
f) Find the probability that she is late for the first meeting if she was late for the second meeting?

There are two traffic lights on the route used by a certain individual to go from home to work. Let E denote the event that the individual must stop at the first light, and define the event F in a similar manner for the second light. Suppose that P(E) = 0.5, P(F) = 0.3, and P(E ∩ F) = 0.12.
(a) What is the probability that the individual must stop at at
least one light; that is, what is the probability of the event
P(E ∪ F)?
(b) What is the probability that the individual doesn't have to
stop at either light?
(c) What is the probability that the individual must stop at
exactly one of the two lights?
(d) What is the probability that the individual must stop just at
the first light? (Hint: How is the probability of this event
related to P(E) and P(E ∩
F)? A Venn diagram might help.)

At the moment the exchange rate of IDR / USD is IDR 10,000 / USD. If in one month a company needs as much as $ 1,000,000 dollars, and the probability that the exchange rate of Rp / USD will increase to Rp. 12,000 / USD is 0.6; still Rp. 10,000 / USD is 0.3, and it drops to RP. 9,000 / USD is 0.1, specify:
a. Calculate the expected value of the rupiah exchange rate in the next month?
b. If there is an option offer the right to buy $ 1,000,000, - for Rp. 10,000 / USD with a premium of Rp. 50,000,000, - should the company buy this option?
c. How much will the company gain / lose if it turns out that in one month the exchange rate is IDR 9,000 / USD.
d. How much will the company gain / lose if it turns out that in one month the exchange rate is IDR 12,000 / USD.

It is thought that prehistoric Indians did not take their best tools, pottery, and household items when they visited higher elevations for their summer camps. It is hypothesized that archaeological sites tend to lose their cultural identity and specific cultural affiliation as the elevation of the site increases. Let x be the elevation (in thousands of feet) for an archaeological site in the southwestern United States. Let y be the percentage of unidentified artifacts (no specific cultural affiliation) at a given elevation. Suppose that the following data were obtained for a collection of archaeological sites in New Mexico: x 5.50 6.25 6.75 7.25 7.50 y 9 38 38 50 72 What percentage of the variation in y can be explained by the corresponding variation in x and the least-squares line?
Select one:
a. 89.9%
b. 10.1%
c. 94.8%
d. 0.3%
e. 1.0%

You measured the following information on a patient.
Blood volume = 5 liters, Hematocrit = 47%
Hemoglobin concentration = 12.3 g/dL whole blood
Total amount of oxygen carried in blood prior to incident = 1020 mL
O2
Arterial plasma PO2 = 100 mm Hg
You know that when the patient’s PO2 is 100 mm Hg, the patient’s
plasma contained 0.3 mL O2/dL and that hemoglobin was 98%
saturated. Unfortunately, the patient reacted poorly to a treatment
and a subsequent blood test revealed a hematocrit of 40%. Estimate
what hemoglobin concentration (g/dL whole blood) would be needed to
maintain the same level of total oxygenation measured prior to the
reaction assuming no change in Hb carrying capacity before and
after the incident? PLEASE UPLOAD A PDF OF YOUR WORK.
