Explanation Given information: In the following is shown a FSM representing the 5-states Busy Beaver. The rules table (FSM) has 5-columns and the number of lines correspond to a number of states. In our implementation, the actions are in a single column and therefore our FSM has columns. Calculation: In the following Matlab code is shown a simulated interface to a tape. Comparing to a real interface, the simulated interface contains itself a replacement for the tape memory. The interface to the tape(TM_run) provides all the functions required by the FSM.

Addition Rule of Probability

It simply refers to the likelihood of an event taking place whenever the occurrence of an event is uncertain. The probability of a single event can be calculated by dividing the number of successful trials of that event by the total number of trials.

Expected Value

When a large number of trials are performed for any random variable ‘X’, the predicted result is most likely the mean of all the outcomes for the random variable and it is known as expected value also known as expectation. The expected value, also known …

Probability Distributions

Understanding probability is necessary to know the probability distributions. In statistics, probability is how the uncertainty of an event is measured. This event can be anything. The most common examples include tossing a coin, rolling a die, or choosi…

Basic Probability

The simple definition of probability it is a chance of the occurrence of an event. It is defined in numerical form and the probability value is between 0 to 1. The probability value 0 indicates that there is no chance of that event occurring and the prob…

4. Assume that a risk-free money market account is added to the market described in Q3. The continuously compounded rate of return on the money market account is log (1.1). (i) For each given μ, use Lagrange multipliers to determine the proportions (as a function of μ) of wealth invested in the three assets available for the minimum variance portfolio with expected return μ. (ii) Determine the market portfolio in this market and calculate its Sharp ratio.

3. A market consists of two risky assets with rates of return R₁ and R2 and no risk-free asset. From market data the following have been estimated: ER₁ = 0.25, ER2 = 0.05, Var R₁ = 0.01, Var R2 = 0.04 and the correlation between R1 and R2 is p = -0.75. (i) Given that an investor is targeting a total expected return of μ = 0.2. What portfolio weights should they choose to meet this goal with minimum portfolio variance? Correct all your calculations up to 4 decimal points. (ii) Determine the global minimum-variance portfolio and the expected return and variance of return of this portfolio (4 d.p.). (iii) Sketch the minimum-variance frontier in the μ-σ² plane and indicate the efficient frontier. (iv) Without further calculation, explain how the minimum variance of the investor's portfolio return will change if the two risky assets were independent.

2. A landlord is about to write a rental contract for a tenant which lasts T months. The landlord first decides the length T > 0 (need not be an integer) of the contract, the tenant then signs it and pays an initial handling fee of £100 before moving in. The landlord collects the total amount of rent erT at the end of the contract at a continuously compounded rate r> 0, but the contract stipulates that the tenant may leave before T, in which case the landlord only collects the total rent up until the tenant's departure time 7. Assume that 7 is exponentially distributed with rate > 0, λ‡r. (i) Calculate the expected total payment EW the landlord will receive in terms of T. (ii) Assume that the landlord has logarithmic utility U(w) = log(w - 100) and decides that the rental rate r should depend on the contract length T by r(T) = λ √T 1 For each given λ, what T (as a function of X) should the landlord choose so as to maximise their expected utility? Justify your answer. Hint. It might be…
