Consider the following assets available for investment:

1. A stock index fund

2. A corporate bond fund

3. A utility fund

4. A global fund

5. A treasury fund

You have research on the funds that has projected out the expected returns (in percent) for the funds

along with the probabilities of those returns occurring. The following table shows the expectations:

Your assignment is to analyze the risk and return metrics of these assets and answer the following questions:

1. What is the expected return of each asset?

2. What is the standard deviation of each asset?

3. What is the Sharpe Ratio of each asset, using the treasury fund as the risk free asset? (Note, the treasury fund will not have Sharpe ratio because it is the risk free asset)

4. Using the stock index fund as the “market”, what is the Beta of each asset?

5. If you were only going to invest in one of these assets, would it be more appropriate to use standard deviation or Beta as your measure of risk, and why?

6. Which asset, if held as a single investment, gives you the best reward for the risk you have taken?

7. Diagram the Security Market Line (assuming the stock index fund is the market and the treasury fund is the risk free asset), plotting the assets in their appropriate places.

8. Which assets are considered “underpriced” and which are considered “overpriced” based on the SML?

Program a calculator or computer to use Euler's method to compute y(1), where y(x) is the solution of the given initial-value problem. (Give all answers to four decimal places.)

dy/dx+ 3x²y = 12x²,

2 main.cpp

In main.cpp do the following step by step:

1. Globally define array cityArray[] consisting of cities with the following details:

(a) Los Angeles with population of 4 million

(b) San Diego with population of 1.5 million

(c) San Francisco with population of 900 thousand

(d) Sacramento with population of 500 thousand

(e) Stockton with the population of 300 thousand

(f) Redding with the population of 90 thousand

(g) Las Vegas with the population of 700 thousand

(h) Reno with the population of 300 thousand

(i) Portland with the population of 700 thousand

(j) Seattle with the population of 750 thousand

(k) Eugene with the population of 200 thousand

2. Globally define a vector of City objects, without initial values. Call it cityVector (1 points).

3. Pass vectors to these functions as reference, and define them as constant if the functions are not

allowed to modify them.

(a) Define function void initVector(...) that receives a vector of City objects, an array

of elements of type City as a second input, and an integer as its third input. The third input

represents the number of elements in the input array. Initialize the input queue with the elements

existing in the input array (2 points).

(b) Define function void printCityVector(...) that receives a vector of City objects

as input and prints the elements within the vector. Hint: You can use range-based for loops (2

points).

(c) Define function int mergeCityVector(...) that receives a vector of City objects as

input, along with three integers as indexes that represent the lower bound, the division point of

the vector into two halves, and the upper bound within the vector. It merges the two halves of

the vector (assuming they are sorted) according to the city populations (5 points).

(d) Define function void cityMergeSort(...) that receives a vector of City objects as

input, along with two integers as indexes that represent the lower and upper boundaries within

the vector. It does merge sort on the vector of City objects according to the city populations

(by invoking the mergeCityVector() function on sorted vectors (5 points).

In main() function do the following step by step, using the functions defined above:

(i) Initialize cityVector according to array cityArray[] using the function defined above (1

points).

(ii) Print out the entries of cityVector, using the appropriate function defined above (1 points).

(iii) Do merge sort on cityVector and print out the updated vector. (1 points).

The output of the program may look like the following:

Initializing cityVector with cityArray[]:

Los Angeles: 4000000

San Diego: 1500000

San Francisco: 900000

Sacramento: 500000

Stockton: 300000

Redding: 90000

Las Vegas: 700000

Reno: 300000

Portland: 700000

Seattle: 750000

Eugene: 200000

Merge sort on cityVector:

Redding: 90000

Eugene: 200000

Stockton: 300000

Reno: 300000

Sacramento: 500000

Las Vegas: 700000

Portland: 700000

Seattle: 750000

San Francisco: 900000

San Diego: 1500000

Los Angeles: 4000000

write a simple python program that takes in 6-50 random numbers the user types in and then guesses the next 6 of numbers that will be produced based on the numbers entered. it's something like a lottery program. You can use any algorithm you want but it has to be in the python programming language.

Thank you!

Write one Java application based on the following directions and algorithms. Make sure the results from each of the numbered items is separate and easy to read/understand.

1.Create an array that will hold 4 string values. Write three separate statements to store your favorite color, your favorite song, and your favorite restaurant in the array elements. I do not want you to use a loop in this logic; use hard-coded index values instead. Print *ALL FOUR* of the values of the array using individual index values. What is stored in the element you did not fill?

2.Create an array that will hold 5 string values. Use a for loop to prompt the user to enter their 5 favorite movies and store each one in a separate element of the array. Print the values of the array using a For-Each loop.

3.Create an array to hold 7 doubles. Use any looping structure you want to prompt the user to enter a value and store it in the array. In a separate loop, compute the sum of the values. In a third, separate loop, display the array values in reverse order. Also display the sum.

4.Create an array that will hold 3 integers. Without prompting the user for input or using a loop, fill that array with the values 23, 0, and -5. Write decision logic to determine whether the values in each array element is negative, positive, or equal to zero. Make the decision logic loop 3 times, since we want to test 3 different values.

• The new market equilibrium price and the new market equilibrium quantity is as follows

  • Dx = 140 - 4p

  • Sx = 120 + p

• At which of the following price for packages of herbal tea:

  • P=$10, $15, $8 is there a surplus, a shortage, or at equilibrium? Use a graph to help explain your answer

    • My thought process is that all these prices will result in a surplus because it will be greater than the MCP.

a) What are the different types of “light” (electromagnetic waves), starting from radio waves? Why do you think we can only see such a small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum? Why don’t we see X-rays or microwaves?
