- This question will compare two different arbitrage situations. Recall that arbitrage should equalize rates of return. We want to explore what this implies about equalizing prices. In the first situation, two assets, A and B, will each make a single guaranteed payment of $100 in 1 year. But asset A has a current price of $80 while asset B has a current price of $90.a. Which asset has the higher expected rate of return at current prices? Given their rates of return, which asset should investors be buying and which asset should they be selling?b. Assume that arbitrage continues until A and B have the same expected rate of return. When arbitrage ceases, will A and B have the same price?Next, consider another pair of assets, C and D. Asset C will make a single payment of $150 in one year while D will make a single payment of $200 in one year. Assume that the current price of C is $120 and that the current price of D is $180.c.

- Q1: Fatima Fertilizer is thinking of replacing its existing machinery and two options are available. The German model is available but only on lease basis. The lease payments of this model are expected to be Rs. 80,000/- per year for 5 years and due at the beginning of each year. The model is expected to result in a before tax saving of Rs. 29,000/- per year due to electricity savings. The alternate model, which is more energy efficient will cost Rs. 365,000/- and will result in a before tax saving of Rs. 32,000/- per year. The purchased machine is depreciated at straight line method, and If purchased, the machine will be financed through HBL at 10%. The tax bracket for Fatima Fertilizer is 34%. The salvage value of both the machines will be 0 after five years. Should Fatima Fertilizer lease the German model or purchase the energy efficient machinery?arrow_forwardSuppose that we can describe the world using two states and that two assets are available, asset K an asset L.
