uestion 4*BFor the Markov process with transition diagram shownat right, say why you would expect the steady state tohave equal probabilities for the four states A, B,C, D,no matter what the probabilities r, s and t happen tobe. [As is the normal convention, missing arrows allrepresent transitions with probability zero.]Write out the transitionmatrix T for this process:Use T" to confirm the steady state vector implied by part (a).For r= 0.2, s= 0.5 and t= 0.3 how many time steps are needed to arrive at thesteady state, to 2 decimal places accuracy, starting from any initial state vector?[Hint: Use a matrix calculator to take powers of T" as in Q2(a).]

The following data consists of a matrix of transition probabilities (P) of three competing companies, the initial market share state ℼ(1), and the equilibrium probability states. Assume that each state represents a firm (Company 1, Company 2, and Company 3, respectively) and the transition probabilities represent changes from one month to the next. The market share of Company 2 after two periods is a. 0.283 b. 0.26 c. 0.261 d. 0.47

A trader invented a strategy where he can either win or lose a certain amount of money every day (say, k dollars) with equal probability, independently of all other days. (In fact, such a strategy is not very difficult to implement - buy a very liquid asset whose price moves without major jumps and liquidate the position as soon as you are making or losing k dollars). He then made the following statement: “If I use my strategy every day for the next 400 days, my chances of staying within 10,000 dollars of the original account balance are equal to 1/3.(a) What is k (approximately)?(b) What are his chances (approximately) of making over 20,000 with this strategy in 400 days?
