The following numbers were randomly generated from a standard normal distribution:
0.5 − 0.75 1.1
i). Given interest rate r = 0.01 and volatility parameter σ = 0.2, compute the drift parameter µ of a
security following a risk-neutral geometric Brownian motion.
ii). Suppose security ABC follows a geometric Brownian motion with the parameters given above. If
the initial closing price of ABC is S0 = s = 10, compute 3 more simulated daily closing prices for
ABC using the random numbers above.
