Explanation of Solution

Calculate the yield as follows:

Yield=[No. of shares×(Ending priceBeginning price)]+Annual dividendNo. of shares×Beginning price=[1,000×($29$28)]+(4×$0.10)1,000×$28=$1,000+$0.4$28,000=0.0357285714285714 or 3.57%

Let it denote the effective annual return achieved on an equity fund achieved between time (t-1) and time t. Annual log-returns on the fund, denoted by In(1+i̟²), are assumed to form a series of independent and identically distributed Normal random variables with parameters µ = 7% and σ = 10%. An investor has a liability of £20,000 payable at time 10. Calculate the amount of money that should be invested now so that the probability that the investor will be unable to meet the liability as it falls due is only 5%. Express your answer to the NEAREST INTEGER and do NOT include a "£" sign. Note: From standard Normal tables, we have (-1.645) = 0.05.
For this question, use this data: myFunc = function (x, y = 2) {z = 7 Z+x^2+y } What is the output of myFunc(2)? O 13. O An error, y is undefined. O Nothing, we have to assign it as a vari O 9.
