Expected return of Security 2 [E(R2)] = 0.1250 or 12.50%

Standard deviation of Security 1 (σ1) = 0.0461 or 4.61%

Standard deviation of Security 2 (σ2) = 0.0461 or 4.61%

Correlation between Security 1 and Security 2 (?1,2) = 0.59

To compute: The expected return and standard deviation of a portfolio if half of the funds are invested in Security 1 and a half in Security 2.

Introduction: Expected return on the portfolio refers to the return that is anticipated on the portfolio as a whole.

An annuity provides payments at the end of each two-year period for twenty years. It pays $1,000 at the end of the first period and increases the payment by $1,000 in each subsequent period, so that at the end of the tenth period it pays $10,000. Given a 2% nominal annual interest rate compounded semiannually, determine in which of the following ranges is the present value of this annuity. please use tvm if neededI
A. What is the amount of the annuity purchase required if you wish to receive a fixed payment of $200,000 for 20 years? Assume that the annuity will earn 10 percent per year.B. Calculate the annual cash flows (annuity payments) from a fixed-payment annuity if the present value of the 20-year annuity is $1 million and the annuity earns a guaranteed annual return of 10 percent. The payments are to begin at the end of the current year.C. Calculate the annual cash flows (annuity payments) from a fixed-payment annuity if the present value of the 20-year annuity is $1 million and the annuity earns a guaranteed annual return of 10 percent. The payments are to begin at the end of five years. I need help solving question C on a financial calculator.
John wants to buy a property for $105,000 and wants an 80 percent loan for $84,000. A lenderindicates that a fully amortizing loan can be obtained for 30 years (360 months) at 6 percentinterest; however, a loan fee of $3,500 will also be necessary for John to obtain the loan.a. How much will the lender actually disburse?b. What is the APR for the borrower, assuming that the mortgage is paid off after 30 years (fullterm)?c. If John pays off the loan after five years, what is the effective interest rate? Why is it differ-ent from the effective interest rate in (b)?d. Assume the lender also imposes a prepayment penalty of 2 percent of the outstanding loanbalance if the loan is repaid within eight years of closing. If John repays the loan after fiveyears with the prepayment penalty, what is the effective interest rate?
