APT An analyst has modeled the stock of Crisp Trucking using a two-factor APT model. The risk-free rate is 6%, the expected return on the first factor (r1) is 12%, and the expected return on the second factor (r2) is 8%. If bi1 = 0.7 and bi2 = 0.9, what is Crisp’s required return?
Consider a single-index model economy. The index portfolio M has E(RM ) = 6%, σM = 18%.An individual asset i has an estimate of βi = 1.1 and σ2ei = 0.0225 using the single index modelRi = αi + βiRM + ei. The forecast of asset i’s return is E(ri) = 12%. rf = 4%. a) According to asset i’s return forecast, calculate αi. (b) Calculate the optimal weight of combining asset i and the index portfolio M . (c) Calculate the Sharpe ratio of the index portfolio M and the portfolio optimally combiningasset i and the index portfolio M .
Suppose you are given the following inputs for the Fama-Frech-3-Factor model. Required Return for Stock i: bi=0.8, kRF=8%, the market risk premium is 6%, ci=-0.6, the expected value for the size factor is 5%, di=-0.4, and the expected value for the book-to-market factor is 4%. Task: Estimate the required rate of return of this asset using the Capital asset pricing model and compare it with the Fama-French-3-factor model.
Let S = $100, K = $95, \sigma = 30%, r = 8%, T = 1, and \delta = 0. For simplicity, let u = 1.3, d = 0.8 and n = 2 (that is, 2 periods). When constructing the binomial tree for the European call option, what is A (Stock Share Purchased in the replicating portfolio) at the first node (Time 0)?

2. Derive the single - period binomial model for a put option. Include a single - period example where: u = 1.10, d = 0.95, Rf = 0.05, SO = $100, X = $100. 3. Assume ABC stock's price follows a binomial process, is trading at SO = $100, has u 1.10, d = 0.95, and probability of its price increasing in one period is 0.5 (q = 0.5). a. Show with a binomial tree ABC's possible stock prices, logarithmic returns, and probabilities after one period and two periods. . b. What are the stock's expected logarithmic return and variance for 2 periods and 3 periods? c. Define the properties of a binomial distribution.
Suppose we estimate SBUX to have β=0.80 when the market premium is 9% and the risk free rate is 3%. However, if SBUX is currently priced to return 9%, then according to the CAPM model SBUX stock is currently _______________ . A) overvalued B) undervalued C) priced just right!
If put A has T = 0.5, X = 50, sigma = 0.2, and a price of 10, and put B has T = 0.5, X = 50, sigma = 0.2, and a price of 12, which put is written on a stock with a lower price (and why)?
1. Consider a one period binomial model. Suppose So = 1 att = To; and Su = 2 and Sd = ½ at time T₁. If we assume the risk free rate R is 1.2, compute the current value of a European put with strike K = 1. Please round your answer to 2 decimals. Enter answer here 2. Compute the number of units of stock we need to short in order to replicate the option in the previous question. Please round your answer to 2 decimals. Enter answer here 3. Use Black-Scholes Formula to calculate the call price of a European call option with: So = 20, K = 20, r = 5%, c = 0,0 = 40%, T = 5; (round to two decimal digits).

Given the following information, predict the put option's new price after the stock's volatility changes. Initial put option price = $6 Initial volatility = 25% Vega = 13 New volatility = 18% (required precision 0.01 +/- 0.01) Greeks Reference Guide: Delta = ∂π/∂S Theta = ∂π/∂t Gamma = (∂2π)/(∂S2) Vega = ∂π/∂σ Rho = ∂π/∂r
Suppose the risk free rate (rfr) = 5%, average %3D market return (rm) = 10%, and the required or expected rate of return E(r) = 12% for %3D TNG stock. (a) Calculate the Beta for TNG. (b) If TNG's Beta = 2.0, what would be TNG's new required or expected rate of return (r)?
Assume that using the Security Market Line(SML) the required rate of return(RA)on stock A is found to be halfof the required return (RB) on stock B. The risk-free rate (Rf) is one-fourthof the required return on A. Return on market portfolio is denoted by RM. Find the ratioof betaof A(A) tobeta of B(B). Thank you for your help.
