Question
Chapter 25, Problem 25.19CYS
To determine
To find: The number of “accidental” injuries from the sample
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 25.19CYS
The correct option is (a): 1,552.
Explanation of Solution
Given info:
The survey results were categorized into two categories such “accidental” and “not accidental” are tabulated below:
| Accidental | Not accidental | |
| 8-13 | 205 | 102 |
| 14-18 | 655 | 916 |
| 19-22 | 239 | 533 |
| 23-30 | 363 | 1,008 |
Reason for correct answer:
The survey results were categorized into two categories such “accidental” and “not accidental” are tabulated below:
| Accidental | Not accidental | |
| 8-13 | 205 | 102 |
| 14-18 | 655 | 916 |
| 19-22 | 239 | 533 |
| 23-30 | 363 | 1,008 |
| Total | 404 | 3,906 |
The total number of accidental injuries in the sample is as follows,
Thus, the correct option is (a) 1,552.
Reason for incorrect answers:
By calculation, the total number of accidental injuries in the sample is 1,552. Hence the options (b) 2,559 and (c) 4,111 are incorrect.
Conclusion:
Thus, total number of accidental injuries in the sample is 1,552.

Pricing a multi-stock option the Margrabe formula The purpose of this problem is to price a swap option in a 2-stock model, similarly as what we did in the example in the lectures. We consider a two-dimensional Brownian motion given by W₁ = (W(¹), W(2)) on a probability space (Q, F,P). Two stock prices are modeled by the following equations: dX = dY₁ = X₁ (rdt+ rdt+0₁dW!) (²)), Y₁ (rdt+dW+0zdW!"), with Xo xo and Yo =yo. This corresponds to the multi-stock model studied in class, but with notation (X+, Y₁) instead of (S(1), S(2)). Given the model above, the measure P is already the risk-neutral measure (Both stocks have rate of return r). We write σ = 0₁+0%. We consider a swap option, which gives you the right, at time T, to exchange one share of X for one share of Y. That is, the option has payoff F=(Yr-XT).
