) Suppose an insurance company has £350 million in capital available. The gain from an investment portfolio of this bank during 12-month period is normally distributed with a mean of £70 million and a standard deviation rate of £160 million. The insurance company considers 99% 12-month value at risk (a-2.33) for setting its economic capital. Assume the 1% tail of the loss distribution has the following values: 0.6% probability corresponds to a £700 million loss and 0.4% probability corresponds to a £20 million loss. Calculate annual risk-adjusted return on capital (RAROC) of the investment portfolio, which considers the expected tail loss.

An investment under consideration has a payback of seven years and a cost of $884,000. Assume the cash flows are conventional. If the required return is 11 percent, what is the worst-case NPV? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
An investment, which is worth $57,023.00 and has an expected return of 17.00 percent, is expected to pay fixed annual cash flows forever with the next annual cash flow expected in 1 year.

A corporate customer obtains a $2 million loan from a bank. The annual spread between the interest rate of this loan and the bank’s cost of fund is 6%, and this bank charges an annual fee of 2.8%. The expected probability of default of this borrower is 9.6%, and the loss given default is 30.7%. Calculate the expected return on this loan based on Moody’s analytics portfolio manager model. Round your answer up to 4 decimal places in decimal term, i.e., enter 0.1234 instead of 12.34%.
Pena company is considering an investment of $20,957 that provides net cash flows of $6900 annually for four years.
Suppose you borrow $42,121.59M when financing a gym which cost is at $90,956.02M. You expect to generate a cash flow of $47,287.93M at the end of the year if demand is weak, $87,482.45M if demand is as expected and $107,854.66M if demand is strong. Each scenario is equally likely. The current risk-free interest rate is 5.42% (risk of debt) and there's a 12.67% risk premium for the risk of the assets. What is the expected return of equity?
Suppose the term structure of risk-free interest rates is as shown here: a. Calculate the present value of an investment that pays $1,000 in 2 years and $4,000 in 5 years for certain. b. Calculate the present value of receiving $900 per year, with certainty, at the end of the next 5 years. To find the rates for the missing years in the table, linearly interpolate between the years for which you do know the rates. (For example, the rate in year 4 would be the average rate in year 3 and year 5.) c. Calculate the present value of receiving $2,700 per year, with certainty, for the next 20 years. Infer rates for the missing years using linear interpolation. (Hint: Use a spreadsheet.)
